Default Jealous of perfection?

I live on the West Coast and it seems across the country embittered folks are just plain jealous of the Patriots' success, especially on the heels of another Red Sox title and the Celtics renaissance.
Shame that people can't appreciate a job well done for what it is. I think people naturally hate for other people to succeed and love to watch them fail.
I think the Germans called it schadenfreude.
That said, here's a funny little take on Big, Bad Bill:

I really don't care what you call it. Call it jeolousy if that makes you feel better. I will feel better about the state of the world if the Pats lose in the playoffs and crown themselves choke artists.

I don't care what you call it either. It's similar to what would you call the smackdown the Pats put on the pathetic Steelers. A good 'ol fashioned ass whoopin' or pounding? Take your pick, right Jimmy?

You mean like how the 15-1 Steelers did when they lost to.... who was it that sent them home again? I can't quite remember.

Exactly. No one really remembers because we did not go 16-0. If we had, everyone would.

Boy reincarnation, you are one brain surgeon, that's for sure. Doofins fan no doubt; if not, thrill us all and tell us who your team of choice is as it's pretty clear it's not the 16-0 Patriots.

You signed up here to troll, brilliant, it really is.

Fact is everyone hates a winner unless it's their team, few are appreciative of what the Patriots did this year aside from Patriot fans.

It's like the Steelers of the 70's, I fvcking HATED that team with a passion back then.

At this point, I respect what they did, the hate has gone away.

As far as cracky hating the Patriots, who can blame him; his team would have two more rings if it weren't for them..................

Water. I find that water works really well in the process of floating boats made of reliable flotation materials.
