1. Isn't it enough for you Boston fans to have won the World Series?
Now we gotta hear this Patriot shit too? The drummer in my band is the same way. It's unbearable I tell you.

36. I go back and forth on the McHale thing
But I don't think Flip Saunders was the problem.

25. Yeah, really.
New England sports fans = worst in the country.

Shit, it's bad enough that the Patriots, um, BLATANTLY CHEATED!!!!!, the fans don't really seem to give a shit.

29. Yup, they did.

I'm willing to bet at least half of the teams in the league have done the same exact thing, too. No hard feelings about being caught, though, because apparently we don't need footage of teams' signals to still whoop their asses.

27. No, cause Boston is larger than Boston.
It's all of New England, and if we can do it, we're gonna try our damndest.

4. Payton should work more on his commercial skills ...
he was only in about 27% of the commercials I saw yesterday. That's low.

7. Clearly, Manning sucks and Brady is the greatest QB of all time
You know, because one game is indicative of a player's performance. To hell with statistics!

8. It's also clearly time to cut that Vinateri bum
I mean 2 missed field goals? Why does he still have a job?

12. Josh Scobee of Jacksonville is at 100%
Must be the best kicker in the league.

13. I could not believe he missed that last one.
I'm not complaining -- I'm glad he missed it, but I was very surprised.

14. Same here
This is the guy who drilled the winning field goal against Oakland in a driving snowstorm, and he botches a chip shot in San Diego (not to mention the one he missed at the dome last week). Strange.

17. And Pats fans continue their tradition of being sore winners.
Such class. :eyes:

19. You can have your "class"
I'll take an undefeated record and a fourth Super Bowl ring, thank you.

21. Yeah, class is so overrated.
My Cowboys have five superbowl rings, so I'm feeling neither deprived nor inadequate in that area.

I just get sick of the inexplicable post-victory whining and snideness.

And that you're a bit touchy about having that pointed out cracks me up.

22. Still sour about Week 6?
A three touchdown loss can do that to a guy. I understand.

23. No, actually, I'm not.
If the season progresses the way it looks to be right now, we may meet again in the superbowl.

And I look forward to that.

I'll take the 8-1 record--even with the loss to the Pats--quite happily.

24. I think we will see a rematch
Dallas has shown that they are the cream of the crop in the NFC.

Perhaps a modest wager will be in order if the Pats and Boys face off in Arizona? NH maple syrup for a Texas delicacy of your choice?

35. Oh, hell yeah!
We're Sox fans. That meant 86 years of Bambino, Enos Slaughter's mad dash, Bucky Dent, Mookie Wilson, "behind the bag!", Aaron F***ing Boone, Grady Little, and the like.

We're Patriots fans, which meant we spent the better part of the last four decades supporting the Carrot Top of professional football. When one of the franchise's historical highlights was a guy on work release clearing a spot for the kicker with a snowplow, you're a bit lacking.

We had our Celtics dynasty, but my god, the last 20 years have been a karmic disaster. len Bias dies a day after we draft hi, Reggie Lewis, a fan favorite who played college ball in Boston, dies on the practice court. Bad coaching, bad management, bad drafts.

Don't get me started on the Bruins and their criminally incompetent owner.

So, we've seen the sucky side of sporting life. We'll take a dynasty over Zeke Mowatt and Rod Rust ANY day of the week!
