Default Great Game Patriot Fans

Of course I am a SD Charger fan and still recovering from tonight's game. I know many of you have seen many of the different postings from the chargers message boards. i do not in anyhow represent any of them. This is my own personal feelings about the game.

1. LT's post game comments seem to be out of frusturation. You can tell there was anger in his eyes during that post game interview. Even though I belive it was out of emotions, that gives him no right to say what he said about Belicheck.

2. Samething goes for Hobbs and his dance at the end of the game.

3. I do believe that the Chargers made mistakes to allow Patriots to win, but the key thinf is that the Patriots took advantage of those mistakes to win. It all goes to show you that a successful playoff team is on that makes plays when it counts and the pats did and the chargers didnt.

4. The difference between this game andthe one in '05 was that the Chargers allowed the Patriots to hang around in the game.

5. Lastly for now, great game and please ignore those fans, be it charger or patriot fans who bash opposing teams fan base or players. We are all biased in one way or another and thats what fuels us fans to become fans. Like I said before great game, patriots are in my book the best playoff team ever. To play at such a high level with the type of players you have is outstanding. Your team is the epitemy of a true early-American patriot who fought as an underdog against the night British empire. Until the nest time we meet...Stay Classy New England.

Obviously I dont know how youfans react after a heartbreaking loss, seeign that you guys havent had one in quite a few years. I think these types of games can bring out the worst in us and sometimes the best in us.

I hereby predict "classy" to be the most abused word of the week.

That said... I'm sure everyone appreciates the olive branch from the west coast, and I also think everyone understands that there will always be mouthy ignorant fans on both sides of a game... generally speaking they're taken with a grain of salt.

Much respect to San Diego... awesome season, great organization and I'm pretty sure another playoff regular for the coming years.

I completely agree with what was said regarding making the plays that count when they need to be made. The Chargers completely and totally dominated this game from a football standpoint, however the Patriots limited the Chargers ability to capitalize on the miscues of Brady and Co. and the Patriots were fortunately able to capitalize on the mistakes the Chargers made.

That's where football games are won and lost.

I'm glad for the classy post. I used to live in the SD area (in the Navy) and I have a soft spot for the Bolts. That said, to the victor goes the spoils. Did you see SB XXXIX or the AFC Championship Game that year? The Pats did the Eagle arm-flap dance after a couple of TD's and INT's. In the '04 AFC Championship game, the Pats players on the sideline were swirling their white Pats towels in retaliation to the "Terrible Towel".

You don't know how boring the Pats can be during the regular season. Bill Bellichick gives you no information about the team. The Pats talk absolutely NO smack during the season. You should've heard them lavishing praise on the Lions, Texans and Green Bay this year. I'm glad to see a little emotion out of my boys in blue and silver! Let me go on the record as saying that if SD won today, I would have rooted for them in Super Bowl XLI!

Good post, and unlike some others I still view LT as a class act. Emotions were high, and although I think he overreacted I can see how he would be upset over it. Much like I think Brady overreacted at Schotty's comments last year.

Last year was brutal so I know how you guys feel, especially with the team you guys had and the way you played all year, tough way to go out with all the mistakes, but you guys will be back i'm sure, too much talent not to be, good luck next season.
