This SB more important than 19-0 quest?

At this point, IMHO, yes! Before crap-gate, I would have said no. But now - it's bigger than that. It's us against the entire non-Pat world. It's us against the media. It's us against the NFL.

Bring it on!

Go Pats!

Yes it is when our QB and coach have their character and integrity questioned and bashed, you're damn sure this is a must win

this is really unreal to me......and very amusing

i hope someone mocks everyone when we are holding the lombardi....."this football feels over inflated.....someone needs to investigate"

if kraft doesnt like it......too bad

it shouldn't be, but it is. time to prove that we win whether the ball is squishy or not.

2007-2008 is ancient history so yes the next game is the most important game.

I think we all have to come to terms with the idea that this franchise and all their accomplishments over the years will always be tainted in the eyes of a significant portion of rival fans. At the end of the day, as an individual, your opinion is your own. If we require others to share it with us then I suspect we'll never find the satisfaction we're craving. We must learn to be ok with that. We must learn to embrace the hate and wear it like a badge of honor b/c we know that the hate is simply a combination of ignorance and envy.

We must also learn from this experience and understand the flaws of media. If through our fandom of the Patriots, we learn to become less likely to jump to false conclusions or rush to judgment (not just football stuff…anything), we can evolve into more reasonable people. Seeing everything go down the way it has, gives us a unique insight into the flaws of media and its vast influence and impact on society. Perhaps there is an individual within our ranks destined to do great things one day.

Yes you can't live in the past it's time to go out there an win this one and prove that we can.

We have to win this game

Yes, because it is now. Now is always more important than the past....

No way.

Yes, win the game and force the media and haters to find another excuse

Yes. after this dog and pony show of the last week, you know that no one outside our fan base wants us to win. It will be so much sweeter if we do !!

Now is important and will feel great after this debacle, but.... 19-0 is immortal.

Don't know how one measures that . . but I will say 19-0 was immortality facing BB and NE. This SB is so important to me as a fan, but I've felt the same about all of the other SB's. The butterflies will become more annoying as next week goes on and I'll be in full on panic attack mode come SB Sunday.

18-1 was still a ridiculous accomplishment. I wanted a win then and I want a win now. I especially want them to smack Sherman in the face and shut his ass up for good (though I don't hate him). I will if he isn't graceful in defeat (if it were).

Only reason this game is more important is because I can't go back in time and change the outcome of that game.
