I'm not bitter at all. Its not a big deal, but you're posts just suck. Not the worst sin in the world, but you don't seem to have much to add on the topic of the Patriots. Doesn't make you a bad person. And its as simple as that.

As a point of order, I have been posting on these pages for years. Don't be decieved by my "second team" status - I am so old around here, it had to be reset when Ian moved the forum.
Go read all my posts and tell me I never I have anything good to say about football. Honestly.
I seem to be in the minority of people who think pro athletes are basically pampered candy-arses.
It doesn't mean I can't watch them and enjoy them, but I just think they're soft, for the most part.
We don't have to agree on that.
But you also have to get off this whole NEM-phobia of wanting people "tossed" off a board becuase you don't like their styles or approaches.
We may not be the same kind of fan (and there ARE different kinds, to be sure).
Admittedly, I am not one of these fantasy geeks that waits all day for Bill Belichick's 3pm press conference or goes and spends hours doing my own salary cap page, but I root for the Patrios and love them and have been a fan since '75-'76.
And no, I do not every single NFL rule and how the PUP list works, etc., etc.
I just dig the pure, violent, heavy metal hitting on Sunday afternoons. That's why I think O-Lineman, linebackers, safeties and special teams gunners are the baddest dudes on any team and receivers, kickers, QBs and punters (God, especially PUNTERS), for the most part, are p u $ $ i e s.
I cover football for my local paper (Sun-Sentinel) and I think I know the game pretty well. Maybe not all the rules, but the GAME on the field.
