Will New England get booed in England? - New England Patriots Forums

Is 225 years enough time? Or will England hold a grudge? Storyline of the week?

I hope not. We've been protecting their ass ever since.

Probably. I heard BB got in a time machine, went back to 1776, and secretly put cameras in General Corwallis' quarters to steal the English's plans for the Battle of Yorktown.

Tom Curran asked Belichick this during today's press conference. He laughed.

The stadium's probably going to be half Patriots, half other teams. Lots of Patriots fans in the UK will be going to the game, including me.

No, there will be absolutely no booing of America. If we didn't like America then we wouldn't be watching its national sport :P

As for booing of the Patriots, some idiots may try it. But they'll easily be drowned out by us Pats fans

Funny except Cornwallis was not the one making 'battle plans.' The battle of Yorktown was a seige. Washington and his French counterpart, Ronchambeau had Yorktown surrounded, with the sea blocked by the French navy fleet.

I was just over in England, and the Patriots are probably their most popular team over their.

Like most things, English people just assume they had the most impact on something for why something is so good, like Tea, Curry, and just about anything else you talk to an english man about. No doubt they love the Pats becuase they are England's gift to American football...

For the next few days, can we call them Olde England? We're not really that new anymore, so I don't see why we can't just be England.

Pretty Ironic that those pesky Patriots from the New World are bringing some Pirates along with them and playing on their turf...

Can anyone say Bray-Tea Party!!
