It's easy, and only takes a few moments.A lot of the crowd at the Pats Games aren't even necessarily hardcore fans like most of us on the board here. Many are people that have the time and money and are just your average fans I believe. I think a real fan will stay with their team and show respect at all times. Your average fans will be more likely to boo. This is my speculation at least.
I see a lot of my facebook friends that don't know jack **** about football posting about going to Pats games a lot.
but 'it must be admitted that when Ninkovich and Cunningham made the last play i really heard from tv an explosion - a resounding roar from the fans
a really huge one...
personally i would never 'boo' anyway...
You've got it backwards. It's the hardcore fan who will boo the team when called for. There was no more appropriate time for justifiable fan disgust than that ultra pathetic 3 and out with 4 mins left in regulation.
It's the pinkhats who think all the world is butterflies and daisy chains and would never boo our boys.
Lots of pinkhats around here too
A spouse has every right to bang the neighbor if they wish. That doesn't mean it is the right thing to do.
Opposing fans and teams enjoy the booing, It's like a compliment. I feel like if you boo the pats your indirectly cheering the Jets. And that's the sin of all sins. But hey If you pay boo away, that's just my 2 cents.
You said someone else used a terrible example? Um.....
That is an example of why having the right to do something does not make it right.
Many people are arguing it is OK to boo because they paid for the ticket and have the right to.
That does not make it right. My example amplifies the relationship of being able to and being right.
It's just an absurd connection to make, that's all.
To move this beyond the silly level it's at now, let me ask you this--do you think it could EVER be acceptable for a home crowd to express displeasure with the home team? And if yes, how would that displeasure be communicated?

its called blind love.......the kool-aid bubbler is to your right
It think it is childish to boo. It accomplishes nothing, and is the equivalent of throwing a temper tantrum to get attention.
I see absolutely no value in it.
No, its called a lack of ignorance and self importance.
They'd had 6+ weeks of results.
Hyperbole?Its not a connection, its using a familiar and/or extreme example to illustrate the silliness of the argument. There is a literary term for it that escapes me at the moment.
Thank you.Hyperbole?
Since I see no value in it, I don't know if I look at it as acceptable or not acceptable, just silly.Right, you said that. What I asked was, could it EVER be acceptable for a home crowd to express displeasure about their team. I guess you feel the answer is no.
I disagree.
Right, feeling it is childish to do somethng that serves no purpose is a great example of lack self-awarenessand, on your part, a major weakness in self-awareness
