Seems to me that the whole "Patriots are underappreciated" routine is pure illusion.
The New England Patriots are a juggernaut with a decade+ waiting list for season tickets and a fabulous marketing/licensing business. They're hugely, hugely popular. The fact that Red Sox obsession is even bigger doesn't change that.
Why not just appreciate that this is a terrific pro sports town? A city like Minneapolis can only dream of the Vikings, Twins OR Timberwolves getting the kind of devotion any of their Boston counterparts get.
