I don't understand the hate really
Coz bmore have one championship in a decade
Have lost in the afc championships twice
And the divisional round
Yet people just want to hate the pats
come on dog ... u cant be that naive to not understand why folk hate New England.... arrogance, assholes (the coach/and fans a lot of the times) u have the tuck rule that never was eva called until that game, u got spy gate, u have them throwing hissy fits and pouting instead of giving interviews, u have Brady crying every time he gets hit, and u have them talking cash money shit they cry when teams return the favor ie Baltimore,Seattle, and the Jets. u have the lily white perception of them ass well (like Duke and Notre Dame) Belichek is a great coach, Brady is a great qb.. but this is why folk hate them
Not to sound biased but Tom Brady is the living embodiment of the American dream
He was not the fastest , not the strongest qb and was picked sixth round in his draft but worked his ass off to become first qb and pretty much one of the faces of the league . He is winner and continues to wanna strive not to be mediocre every season unlike a lot of qbs who play the game . Isn't that what we want from our sports stars? ,Dude doesn't even do offseason bullshit than most celebrated players in league history.
Fair enough there is spygate but are you gonna sit here and tell me New England is the only team that did videotaping ?
Moreover not to make comparisons but the saints have a pretty similar scandal yet no one makes them as villainous a team as New England .
Then the point about hubris people celebrate the likes of Sherman ,strahan ,namath , moss, bart scott,shannon sharpe, dieon sanders, Terrell Suggs , Rex Ryan etc for being cocky but when it's the pats it's arrogance. It's cool for Joe Flacco or Eli to have an interview about being elite but is that not being cocky ?
Then finally belichick yes he is a bit of a robot but same could be said for coughlin , joey fisher , mike tomlin but people like them. I'm pretty sure when Sean Payton returns there will be bounty gate associated nicknames .
I know I won't change anyone's mind but its a double standard and I think people just hate folks who win alot (or are consistent every season) no matter what .
