Say this to all New Yorkers who annoy you - New England Patriots Forums

I know this doesn't help most of us deal with the pain as most of us here are bigger Pats fans than sox fans but at least you can say it to shut them up.

As they start to rib you about how bad the SB was blown just remind them that on any given Sunday you can lose but how would like to blow it four straight times like the Yankees did.

Most of the people involved in the New York Boston rivalry care more about baseball anyways.

I was waiting for one of those geniuses to come up with some play on 1918.

I was almost feeling sorry for New Yorkers. They've got nearly 9 million people, Boston less than a million. They've got two teams for every pro sport. They outspend Boston sports teams by 250%. Yet in this century, they can't win a thing (until this strange, strange Super Bowl).

Don't let them annoy you. Just pat them on the head, and remind them of their ridiculous advantages, and why in the world would they focus their competitive energy on such a small city as Boston? Must be tough to be a New Yorker.

It's not worth it to bicker with them. Why bother bringing up everything you beat each other over in the past? Just take it like a man.

I dunno, I'm getting beyond irritated with a lot of NY fans and bandwagon fans who jumped onboard two days before the Super Bowl.

All I see are people gloating about Tom Brady, Belichick and the Patriots being knocked down a peg. Maybe my judgement is clouded, but I can't remember a more ungracious and crass fan base after a championship win.

I'm not happy about it, but the Pats were knocked down a peg. It sucks, but it's where we are.

To be entirely fair, it's not the Boston Patriots...

Look at yourselves in the mirror. Every team that loses thinks the other fans are classless. You guys are NO EXCEPTION
