Default Have many Patriots fans become spoiled brats?

In keeping with the the tone of several thread here asking deep, probing questions regarding TFB, BB, and the franchise in general, it is appropriate to ask deep and probing question about many Patriots fans.

So I guess we should look inside our selves and ask if we have become so use to winning that we have lost perspective as to what this team has given top us over the 10years.

Now maybe we should expect a SB win every year. We are so different from the other 31 team fans that we deserve all of the wins and should not accept as fan anything less. When we don't get what we want we should ask the questions if TFB is a choker, or has BB lost it, or is Bob Kraft way too cheap.

The loss yesterday was very tough to take for all of us, considering it was our most hated rival. But I think the franchise is still on the right path and will be a championship contender for the several years. But maybe we should expect more than that, afterall we are Patriots fans.

I was thinking about this last night-I used to enjoy the wins more than I do now. I've come to expect a win every game which is of course unreasonable. When the Pats lose, it's a shock. Why should it be? We have much to be thankful in the last 10 years-How many teams have never made it to the Superbowl?

okay lol

Its sorta frustrating to watch the jets over the years sign great free agents while the patriots are searching the bargain store for over the hill players that they think maybe they can get something from.

WHY ARE THE PATRIOTS TRYING TO WIN LIKE RAYS? DO NO FREE AGENTS WANT TO PLAY FOR THE PATS?

I think you just answered the question. It's not only about being spoiled brats, which many here clearly are, because as you rationalize fans should feel entitled regardless... LOL

The Jets and Lions have not made it in the 41 years since the merger. And if there is any justice left, the Lions will make it before the Jets.

It could be tied to the amount of time spent here and otherwise on the internet where the never good enough what have you done for me lately mentality prevails. I know after 2001 I said they didn't owe me a thing, and I couldn't imagine they could ever top that although I hoped they could prove it more than a cinderella fluke... then they won two more rings in 3 more seasons and we were truly even in my forever book. Doesn't mean I don't care if they win, but after the first blush of frustration or anger wears off I always feel worse for them because of how much more they invest in it compared to any fan...

The self pity ratio on these message boards is really depressing... Drags everyone down kinda like the fellowship of the miserable mentality that permeates talk radio.

I just remember growing up in Minnesota with the Vikings, losing, losing, losing, every year losing. But those fans never gave up. Even this year with the hell they went through my father called me up sometime around week 14 asking what needed to happen in order for them to make the playoffs yet! I was speechless.

Ha ... yeah, we're spoiled here.
