Right. Who in their right mind wants to "embrace hate" as part of a pastime? I get enough stress and conflict in my everyday existence without piling more of it on after hours.Because it's just a sport you're watching for entertainment.

No....the Pats are victims, not villains
Because it's just a sport you're watching for entertainment.
I disagree. We're talking about Patriots football, not WWE. It's as much of a choice of lifestyle as it is a source of entertainment. And while football is supposed to be a form of escapism, it's become much more important than that for Pats fans, who have spent the entire offseason rallying together to defend their team.
So no, I'd rather not embrace the hate, because Tom Brady has done nothing to deserve it.

I've already embraced the hate.
You have to ask yourself this. What Jet fan would NOT put up with all this deflate, camera gate crap if it meant they had 4 championships. Answer...zero.
The worst thing you can do is try to reason with the agenda driven mouth breathers. I used to drive Jets fans crazy when they started using asterisks on everything Patriot related. They lost their mind when I embraced them as "Asterisks of Excellence" and repeatedly posted I was hoping the Pats would soon get a 4th Asterisk against Seattle.
Crybaby tears of the weak and mediocre are salty goodness.
I'm not so naive to believe that the Patriots like any other team for decades have tried to gain intelligence on their opponents. Like another poster said "there is a reason they have signs" otherwise you would just yell out the play.
The difference is that even with all of this gamesmanship most other teams don't have our incredible winning record. So if they do it (and they do) and don't win and we do it and win, the only logical explanation is that we win because we are better prepared and have better coaching.
Case closed!
