Smile Calling all Pats fans that don't live in the New England area

I have been a Patriot fan my entire life and I live in Dallas, Texas. This week has been one of the longest ever as a fan. I've been getting bombarded from every angle. Everyday that I walk into work I get "New England Cheaters!" or "Some genius your coach is!". It's been brutal. Anyone else going through the same BS?

For those of you who live in Boston or the surrounding areas, what is the general opinion on the situation?

yes i live in Illinois. it's obnoxious.

I'm guessing it's pretty much just like your situation, except the people aren't as smart.

Of course I got the idiot Bronco fan at work talking smack, but shut him up pretty quickly with the salary cap fiasco during their SB run.

No one gives a crap really (boss a Colts fan, got a mix of Dallas, Houston, and Miami fans). No one's mentioned it, but I don't think they are diehards.

I work with bills and jets fans and they agree that this is all crap. If you speak with REASONABLE SMART AND KNOWLEDGEABLE people, they realize there is no in game benefit and all of this is crap.

Other than a few comments at first........ mostly pleasant smiles at this point.


Trust me, most people that know me know not to get too critical of my Patriots with me. I take them pretty serious. I live squarely in Buffalo Bill territory.

btw Bills fans, are by far the least d*ckish in the AFC East (after us).

I live in Seattle and most of the people here are set in what the media is saying that we cheated and that we're now a tainted franchise and won't even listen to the other side of the story.
