If you can root for the patriots, I have every right to root against them. What rule says I have to be FOR a team?



ok, I'll put it this way

our rivals, are the Lakers, Yankeees, Montreal, and lack of a better team, I'll say the Jets

I'll narrow it down to the team I can not stand the most. The Canadiens

If they lost the Eastern Finals to say o, the Florida Panthers

I can not see me, or any other Boston Fan jumping up and down in here saying HAH! SUCK IT MONTREAL!!!!

I've never made one post like that.. I've never even seen it other than bashing the Patriots.....

Well, I don't really revel in their defeat. But I've experienced one douche bag IRL at college Fiesta bowl party, host was an Ohio State fan, had everyone in neighborhood over to watch them play Texas. One neighbor was actually a Miami alum, and still tasting sour grapes after Ohio State beat Miami in the BCS championship several years earlier in a controversial OT finish. He was carrying on and WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOing right in the hosts face every time Texas did something, ultimately Ohio State lost a close game. I was actually very embarrassed for the guy carrying on.

At least the refs didn't beat you. That is a hard pill to swallow.

you're strictly saying ACF right?

Because every fan base has fans like this.

Ironic, because they complain about class, yet don't show it themselves

heck, their team didn't even win, it's that another team lost

Just sayin.....


I still love you ACF, just making an observation

looks like we got a sore loser around here too.

I think the refs did a decent job. Didn't see any calls that shouldn't have been, and didn't notice any non-calls either really. The one the tv guys kept showing as a possibility was a PI non-call, but to me it looked like they were both playing the ball, and while there was incidental contact (on both sides) it didn't really affect the play. Both of the Giant sideline pass calls were spot on (the first oob call, and then the second catch call).

seems all the *experts* are agreeing with the no-call on the PI.
just seems to be some dumb ass haters still clinging to it though.

My hatred for the Patriots rivals only my love for the Colts.

It's all part of being rivals.

edit: After the Colts lost, there were a ton of anti-Manning/Colts threads.
After the Steelers lost last year, there were a ton of anti-Ben/Steeler threads.

It happens.

i couldn't imagine being in a market that didn't understand this.
far too many on ACF just dont understand this concept...i guess they all hug the enemy.
