and thats what hurts the most. I know the media has blown this out of proportion and is totally worng in doing so but they have succeeded in giving fans outside of NE a great excuse to taint our SBowl wins. I used to parade the fact that we were a model organization and TB is one of all time greats but even though I believe that - its going to be a hard task when discussing with others as they have a perfect out clause "You guys are proven cheaters". I know they are wrong and the media has basically sh*t on us big time (something I will never forgive them for) but now they have a legit excuse.
I really don't care about the penalty - its the rep. Hopefully this dies down soon and we win the whole thing once again but what a week it has been. I have been a zombie - not getting any sleep thinking about this stuff while last week I was getting ready for a what was supposed to be a fun filled NFL season. It has taken alot out of me. I take these things too seriously I guess.
It does put a damper on it but maybe when they start playing again it will become better.
Just some thoughts from a loyal fan.......
