I have no expectation to ever find another team but if your team was sold to an owner who was a dumbass I see nothing wrong with finding a team more worthy of rooting for. Why root for crap ? Anyway, the Patriots fans won't be in this situation with Jonathon there for when Robert can no longer run the team.

I was close to losing my love and excitement for the Cincy Reds when I found out Marge Schott had some nazi material inside her desk at the stadium but I kept with them as a fan and when Marge was happily removed from the team it was like they won the World Series - She may have been the worst owner piece of ***** to ever exist in sports history.

Jessica Alba I definitely do it for her. During the off-season. Once the season starts asta la vista baby.

My daughter recently asked me who would I root for if my son played for an NFL team other than the Pats. I would root for my son's team for as long as he played for them, but I would always root for the Pats too. When they went head to head, I'd have to root for my son. Very few things are more important to me than the Pats, but my family is one of them.

There is only one chance that I would ever go against the Pats....and that's if a loss would give them the #1 draft pick, and since we know that won't be possible for many years to come I guess my answer would be a resounding "no".

Fortunately, I only have a daughter. If she dated an NFL player they'd just have to put up with the old man droning on about the Pats ...

The only way that happens is if Kraft looses the franchise and the team moves. In which case I would be a fan of where ever our franchise landed.

Tough one to ponder, but I don't think I could ever root for another team. It would have to be an act of dismantling the franchise to force me to root for someone else, and if I had to I've always had a soft spot for those poor, hapless Lions

Nothing. It would never happen.
