So who does Steve DeOssie root for? - Page 2 - New England Patriots Forums

He said last week that he would root for his son's team in a superbowl although he thought the Giants had probably already taken it as far as they could heading to GB. He also said a Giants-Patriots matchup would essentially be a win win for him.

Anyone who has listened to beachball knows he has picked the horseshoes to beat the Pats for years.
He should cheer for his son and I wouldn't care.

Of course, there's really no decision.

On a less weighty note, my father is a life-long Giants fan who adopted the Pats as his local AFC team when he moved from New York to Massachusetts 40 years ago. So he's put in the hard time with both teams. Naturally, my first thought when the Giants won was "Who the heck does Dad root for?" His answer:

"It's no contest, I'm with the Patriots in this one. For the Patriots to have accomplished so much in such an incredible season but not finish it out would just be heartbreaking, while the Giants have already gone so much farther than anyone imagined they could."
