Re: Can we combine all these "so and so hates the Pats" threads?

Ok, we get it. Every other team and every media commentator is jealous of the Pats and is constantly saying something stupid about our team. Who cares. You just empower and legitimize them if you start threads about them.
Everyone hates BB. I get it. Whatever. I don't care.
Can we now stop cluttering our board with all that useless drivel? How about a single thread for all the complaining and whining?
I'd rather talk and read about the Pats. The Colts match up. Our weaknesses. Stories about our players. Etc.

Actually we have been. You're seeing about 1/2 the threads that have been posted.
It just is that the Patriots are the biggest story in sports, nationally, and that the cameragate, running up the score, 19-0 chances etc. etc. are the Patriots culture in 2007. It's all part of the biggest story in sports.
I'm sure it takes some getting used to, but you have two choices: embrace it and enjoy it (10 million Redskins fans would love to have a team so "relevant") or skip those threads. This is a buffet - - you don't have to eat the broccoli if you don't want.
