A reminder: the main reason everyone hates the Patriots

True That.(I'm trying to sound hip but may be out of time).

Cuz they anus!

What else is new...We win they lose.

Complain to league to change rules every year to stop the Evil Pats..........didn't work

Form a League-Bias against them.....didn't work

Cook up a half-assed scheme to tarnish the Coaches then the QBs reputation with oh-no *'s.....lol

Now they form a committee in NY to help call fair games(implement anti-Pats agenda with no way to physically prove it)..........annoying but still won't work

Screw 'em all they can have their "Participation Medals" and Goodell's Flying Circus.......still won't stop us

I'm sure Football PSI has more impact on "Integrity" than a "Juiced Steel-Curtain" a "Stick 'em Laced Cooked Books Niners" a "Illegal Cap-Circumventing Broncos" a "HGH tuned-up Gomer Manning" and on and on

People hate teams when they're really just jealous of their success. In the 90's, I hated the Cowboys and 49ers.

Nobody hates the Lions, Browns or Jaguars.

This is what I find surprising sometimes when people here don't understand the "hate". Boston sports fans should be well aware of this because they've been through it before when the Celtics were winning constantly.

I thought it was the obnoxious fans?

Let them hate... I go back to the mid 70's with this team and they used to laugh at us. So I'm good with them hating. I hope they hate us for a long, long time.

Considering all the press of how wonderful he is, thought Peyton* would have fared better in his leadership, does everyone know he is the most prolific individual QB of all time????

I hope that the ownership of the Pats has finally realized that sucking up to the POS commissioner and the fellow owners has not and will not change this animosity. It didn't work in 2007, it didn't work this year and it will not work in the future. It's time to put the team and its fans first and the Shield second especially due to the cesspool of corruption that is the NFL office.

Except their own fans and perhaps a bookie or two.

Probably half of the people in here have cherry picked the pats as "their" team & are not Celtics, Bruins, Red Sox fans so they know not the hatred we received in the 80s w the Cs.....they also don't know what its like to HATE a team like we hate Montreal or the NYY in their heyday

Exactly. I well remember the hate that Red engendered around the NBA and how in their heads he was. And how smug the rest of the league was when Bias coked himself. No sympathy for the Celts losing their No. 1. Don't expect any for the Pats, even if league-inflicted rather than player stupidity.

I was in college in the late 80s early 90s and I got so much crap for being a Pats fan. 1-15..2-14..5-11..

Every other fan can pound sand. What goes around comes around.

They're peanut butter and jealous.

What a lousy GM Belichick is.

Nah, most of the people here are NE sports junkies. We'd have to be to put up with some of the posters on this site! We get the hate but we don't like it, especially when it goes beyond hate to "the fix is in."

Then there are the Rats, who are hated just because they are the Rats, although for me, the hatred of all things rodent comes from their efforts to denigrate all of the Pats' accomplishments.
