This clearly shows a double standard, I can't believe this is the first I've heard of this. This tells me that the main reason people around the country dislike BB is because he consistently beats their team. It's different for the media but for the avg fan I think this is the reason.

COLD SHOULDERS ON THE FROZEN TUNDRA?
Posted by Mike Florio on September 10, 2008, 8:07 a.m.

Though the football-watching world has “moved forward” from the whole Packers-Vikings pissing match, the principals haven’t forgotten, apparently.

There was no post-game handshake on Monday night between Vikings coach Brad Childress and Packers coach Mike McCarthy.

McCarthy came to midfield in search of Childress, but the pair never connected.

During the offseason, the Packers filed tampering charges against the Vikings, claiming that Childress and Vikings offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell had engaged in improper communications with former Packers quarterback Brett Favre.

The incident has gotten relatively little attention. If Pats coach Bill Belichick had pulled a stunt like that, there would have been calls for him to be hanged in effigy. (”Or right here in Boston,” coach Pantuso said.)

$h!t, it'd be all over the news. But BB is relevant. Who gives a flying F about what goes on in WI or MN except those in WI or MN.
 
It's just a reflection of the current culture in which we live - people get jealous of those that have worked harder and sacrificed more, and as a result, have achieved more. But rather than seek to improve themselves to attain that level, it takes less effort to slag the achiever down and try to bring them back to your level.

Simply put, no one works harder than BB and the Patriots.
 
Funny how they're not saying anything about running up the score either. :mad:
 
How could anyone get angry at a coach that looks like Ned Flanders?

The post game handshake just slipped his ding-dong-diddley mind.
 
Could catch by PFT. It does show the double standard, and I hope other people realize this as well.
 
Actually, it's pretty common knowledge that almost all coaches think the whole ritual is ******ed and most try to get out of it if at all possible. It's ONLY BB that gets nailed for in the press.

PAR FOR THE COURSE.

I think he looks more like my 9th grade math teacher (note he doesn't look like my real math teacher but like any math teacher)
