For someone who likes to complain so much about people reading between the lines, you're doing a fine job yourself.
I do think there is such thing as running up the score, and I do think there were times this year the Patriots did go a little overboard (not to the extent as others often imply, but there were times I was shaking my head.)
That said, the Super Bowl is precisely when you don't mess around in terms of scoring as much as you can. The other team is a high quality NFL team, who earned the right to be there, so if you're able to beat them down, they shouldn't expect mercy.
I don't care if the Patriots win by 1 or 50, it will feel the same to me either way (though the latter will lead to less shouting and throwing things during the game, I'd venture).
