10 reasons to hate the Patriots (Read 1234 times)

The Lions didn't make it to the Superbowl this year?!?

Sorry, but I've gotta do this... GO GIANTS!!! I hope we can exact our revenge on those cheating jerks!

Patriots are going to win. The Giants may have won 8 or 9 road games straight, and may be the "hottest" team in football, as the radio announcers are frequently (and nauseatingly) pointing out. I hate to break it to them, but the Patriots are undefeated this year on the road. And at home. And (obviously) in the playoffs. You don't get much "hotter" than that. Even when they play way below their level, and have a genuinely "bad" game, they still win. I noticed that as the weather got worse, the Patriots play got worse. Being in a dome in the SuperBowl, I expect to see the sorts of performance that we saw early in the season. I don't expect as much of a blowout, though, because I think that the Giants will step up like they did at the end of the season and be competitive. I just don't think they can match up with what the Pats are bringing.

I am so disinterested in this game that I am in it only for the food. The media is trying to jack up interest for the 13.5 dogs... Though not my team, I liked the Pats until the cheating thing. It makes you wonder about all the right calls, having the right defence at the right time, the right play called against the defence. I think that they had been breaking the rules for several years and just got caught. It seems to have been swept under the rug. Trying to preserve the status of the sport I guess and generate an undefeated team is more of an interest to the NFL than doing the right thing...(My disgust for professional sports is bubbling to the surface...) I have never really heard how long this was suspected to have been happening or if there was any evidence pionting to a conclusive time period. If I was Godell I would have fined the Team at least $1million(which is still chump change), suspended the head coach and all others involved for a year without pay, AND had the team forfeit all games suspected of cheating up to and including the Super Bowls if applicable. But I guess that would put somewhat of a pallor over the game and cost the league money. Rant over...sorry
