With the latest win, I think we have to evolve our game in trolling other fan bases. We don't have to get into Brady/Manning yelling matches anymore, that issue is long settled. I think we can do subtler things that will hurt worse than screaming our superiority at the top of our lungs.
  1. Be unable to remember details from Super Bowls because the all run together. This could be a group troll, as you need clarification of which Super Bowl you are talking about. "Wait, do you mean the fourth Super Bowl overall, the Fourth Super Bowl of the Belichick era, or the fourth Super Bowl that we won?" "Do you mean the first time we won a Super Bowl in Houston or the second time that we found that great barbecue place?"
  2. Complain that this year's Sound FX/Three Games to Glory/Turning Point/etc. isn't as good as previous years.
  3. Talk about having to donate memorabilia with 4 championships as it's now out of date.
  4. Go over the details of the 2002 season as its the last and only time Brady missed the playoffs.
  5. Ask people what it's like to miss the playoffs if you're under 20.
Any other ideas?
 
You know what sucks? Buying Championship Jerseys seemingly every other year for my kids. That's getting expensive.
 
I like to complain about how long it has been since the last one, and all the misery and heartbreak we've had to endure.

I like to complain about how expensive the championship gear is (I used that one on JetFan79 in the new pofo forum)

I like to talk about how lucky they are that they can watch the Super Bowl without having a heart attack every other year.

I also complain about how there's not enough room on my mantle for all the championship hats.

I mention that I no longer buy AFCCG championship gear because it's really not that big a deal to win the conference.
 
On the Bill's board anthropomorphize their playoff drought with them. They refer to the playoff drought as a "her".. "She" is now old enough to drive and be asked out to the prom, etc.

Throw in how our Bowl drought was just born.. etc.
 
Draft is coming up so that's a good place to focus.

1. I wish we had your draft position.
2. You're drafting in the top ten? Damn that's lucky. We only do that when we fleece other teams in trades.
3. Fun fact. More UDFA's have won championships for the Patriots than first round picks.
4. The Pats have drafted some first round busts too. Do you remember Chris Canty? No? Well to be fair it was twenty years ago.
5. It's always good to be the last to boo Goodell on opening night of the draft.
 
Start a discussion whether or not the words to "We Are The Champions" are a perfect fit to Brady's 2 year harassment & victory.

I've paid my dues
Time after time.
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime.

And bad mistakes ‒
I've made a few.
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face
But I've come through.


We are the champions, my friends,
And we'll keep on fighting 'til the end.
We are the champions.
We are the champions.
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions of the world.
 
totally off topic, but does anyone else hate the use of the words troll and trolling? I cringe every time I hear these words..nor sure why..maybe overuse perhaps.

He's not lying... JetFan79: Behold the high price of victory | Patsfanspofo

I don't think it's particularly effective, but he tries.

Fwiw imo, #1 from the OP here, if pulled off correctly, would infuriate me. Easier said than done to not be obvious that's what you're doing. But if I really thought some spoiled Pat fan couldn't keep facts straight between SB Championship seasons, there's not much I could say.

What would be an alternative word?

It would have to mean: "The intent to disrupt, inflame, annoy - often at any cost no matter how irrational indefinitely." That would be my definition of a real troll.

"Which Super Bowl?"
"One of the ones where we won with a last second field goal."
"There's like three of those."
"No, two."
"What? St. Louis, Carolina, Philly."
"No, The Rams and Panthers were last second field goals. The Eagles we were up by 10 and McNabb took forever to get a score to cut it to 3."
"Are you sure? I thought Adam won all our early Super Bowls."
"Dude, watch your Three Games to Glory again."

Yeah, like insist in a couple years that the Seattle game was OT or something.

In relation: "Hmm...who should the Pats take at #32?"
