Saying there are two types of people in the world is a gross oversimplification of things, but you do realize that both forms of the two types you listed are really just a different take on the same form. If the negative type is negative in order to generate self-esteem by putting things around them down, then the positive type likewise generates some feelings of self-worth from putting down the negative type. Either way, both side is saying "we're better than ___" fill in the blank with the opposite. It's why liberals and conservatives are as they are these days.
I'm not sure how any of this applies to the Pats. I don't know why people are shocked there are negative or pessimstic Pats fans. I mean, come on, this is New England, what do you expect?
If you're a homer, and I consider myself a pretty big kool-aid drinker, you just have to accept and even embrace the area we are in. I hate media members who spread negativity, I think that's unfair and propaganda-like, but the average fan who likes to whine and moan? Shouldn't bother us. The recent success of the Pats and Sox have changed the makeup of New England sports fans, but at our heart, we are a whiny, bytchy, yet passionate group, and I see nothing wrong with that.
