Since 1979. I was 11 years old. My stepfather was a football fan, which influenced me. I grew up in the New Haven area of CT, so the Jets, Giants and Pats were always on. I made my choice to go with Grogan & company and never looked back. Although I missed a lot in 93-94 while I spent a couple years in the FL keys.

since 1979...when i was 9...moved to Barrington, RI for a year and became a fan instantly.....i apologize, though, because I was already a cowboy (1975) and bronco (1978) fan....i remain a staunch supporter of all three teams to this day....at one point, they were three of my five favourite teams in all of sports...but since the Expos and Winnipeg Jets cease to exist, they are now my three favourite teams in sports....i don't cheer for one team over another when they play each other....i beleive i have a unique, unbiased perspective of the NE-Den game as a result, and I thought the broncos were very fortunate to win....NE beat themselves, with a nice dose of help from the zebras.
Been a Patriots fan since the mid 60's...back when Nick Bounoconti was a Patriot MLB , NOT a Dolphin. Gino, Bo Nance,Babe Parilli, Dr Bill Lenkaitis,Jim Hunt, Houston Antwine, Joe Bellino...the lsit goes on...I loved that team and began my switch from NFL Giants fan to AFL Patriots fan at that time
here's a link to a restaurant ad from that time period....a joint up in Boston...check the prices...
you too, with p8ryts, are fans from the real beginning more or less. compliments !
Was aware of the Pats in the 60's, became a real fan when I purchased season Tickets when Schaefer stadium opend up IIRC tickets in the end zone were ~$45: & reg & 2 preseason games. I was in HS and brought my little brother to the games.

We just have to try to evaluate them the best we can."
