Re: Bill Simmons Views on His Pats....
Because this team has been successful by any standards (and fantastically so compared with all previous Pats teams) doesn't mean that they are perfect. As annoying as it is for the board to be infested with Chicken Littles, it's just as bad that the first thing you say that is not 100 per cent adulation for the Pats is described as "trashing the team".
One of the joys of rooting for the Pats is that the Head Coach is the first one to say that there are things that the team needs to do better when that is the case. I don't see any reason for fans not to take the same view.
fgssand said:What is it about this team, it's ownership & front office that has caused so many to say so much, most of it negative and factually wrong so often?
I have never seen a team that has had (and in my opinion will continue to have) so much success be trashed by so many.
What is going on here and what is behind it all??
