As much as I dislike Farve I really would like to see him back in the league especially playing against the Packers.

I know that it was the "in" thing to go bashing the guy, but he was genuinely hurt. That's too bad, because the Jets with a healthy Favre would have been a better team coming out of the East than the Dolphins. Hopefully this thing will be repaired and he can play for another year if that's what he really wants. I'm quite confident that the Vikings would take him over the Rosencopter.
I personally root against the other 3 AFCE teams in the playoffs, just because I hate them so. And I root against the other AFC teams in the Super Bowl. IDK, it makes me feel better for some reason.
Not saying you're wrong, that's just my feeling.

I tend to root for the team that knocked my team out of the playoffs when I'm looking at professional sports. In this case, had the Jets won the division, it would have been them. I "hate" the AFCE opponents, but only for game purposes. When the teams aren't matched up, I figure there are 31 teams that I want to finish behind the Patriots, and I always felt comforted when my team (or me individually) lost out to the eventual champions as opposed to just losing to some other loser(s).
This year will be different, because if the Patriots get knocked off, I'll be going with the "Yes, the team that beat New England but, first, anyone but Pittsburgh" theory, in order to keep that "Team of the Decade" title in place.

I can respect that. I felt the same in 2005 with the Broncos. And actually I was rooting for Villanova in the NCAAs because they narrowly beat my alma mater in rd. 1. BUT, I can't transfer this to AFCE teams (and the Colts)- the dark side takes over and my hatred determines who I root for. Yes, my hatred runs deep.

Agreed. I'll root for the underdog after we get knocked out, but that will never include afce teams, or the colts, titans, raiders, and chargers.

Totally agree! It would be great drama and I am slightly curious to see if the Vikings would be any better with Favre than they would be with Tavaris or Sage.

Well, technically the Jets did knock the Patriots out of the playoffs. If they didn't crap the bed in a very winnable game vs. Miami (neither team seemed like they wanted to win that one), the Pats would have won the division. So I guess you do have to root for the Jets.
