Mr Kraft Tear Down That (16-0) Banner!!!

Every time I see that lame piece of you know what I want to puke. Yesterday I'm sure our Giant opponents had lots of laughs looking at that symbol of hubris and tragic failure hanging over Gillette like those Colts AFC Champion banners we USED to make fun of.

Exorcize those demons. Tear it down. Let me piss on it after having consumed mass quantities. And then douse it with gasoline and burn the sucker.

Your take?
 
Yes, tear it down.

I'm honestly scared that we've entered an era of a Babe Ruthian curse on this team. You can call it the 18-1 curse, or the Super Bowl 42 curse, but I can't help but think the bad karma from the game we don't talk about will take decades to dissipate.

Eek!
 
It's the kind of banner that will look excellent forever....


Once the team has another SB title to take away the thoughts of the loss.
 
No way -- that was a huge accomplishment. If Brady had broken his leg the week before the Super Bowl, and Brian Hoyer ended up losing the game, would you still want the banner taken down?

Besides, Belichick does all the interior decorating at Gillette. If he wanted it down he would have already taken it down.
 
How about a IDGAF? Don't look at it if you don't like it.
 
I have no problems with it. I would if it had the SB 42 logo on it.

Was Hoyer on the team in 07? I know for a fact that the second string was Cassel, he did come in the very next game when Brady went down.
 
Honestly, I am more worried about Zoltan Mesko's leg injury than anything even remotely close to removing this banner.

Taking down that banner isn't going to miraculously make DB's play or tackle better.or create a pass rush.

you know nothing of curses

talk to a charger fan, noob

Very funny.

You made me laugh.
 
in 2028 ask people who won sb42, most people will have no idea, ask them the only team to go undefeated in a 16 game season and they'll all know NE.

Leave it right where it is. an undefeated 16 game season has happened once, a superbowl gets won every single year.

I'm no fan of yours, Mistah Pissah, but that answer is correct.

Looks like your position is an extremely unpopular one ~ 19 - 5 for leaving it up, the voting is ~ but I, for one, approve this message.

19-6.

Let the Dan Marinos, Peyton Mannings, and Marty SchottenHeimers of the world celebrate regular season accomplishments.

Around here, we're in the business of winning World Championships.

It's somewhat better than the Bruins putting up all of their Adams Division banners next to the Celtics' World Championship banners.
 
Yes, tear it down.

Eek!

If there IS a Curse, Super Bowl 42 was the result, not the cause.

THIS would be the cause:



Kraft is awesome...but his balls got a big fat "F", that day.

Let some scum bag try to pocket MY Championship ring, and see what happens.

I went to the SJ Sharks game Saturday night. They had the following THREE banners for ONE season (2009):

Pacific Division Champs
Western Conference Regular Season Champs
Presidents Trophy

Chris

No, it's somewhat worse.

Nothing more clearly misrepresents what this Dynasty is about than that hideous banner.

Mind you: Those Bruins banners are VERY lame, and ought be set to flame.

This is one of my pet peeve and has always bothered me. This game unlike baseball or basket ball is played only in USA (atleast NFL) , now why do we call it World Championship ??

OK OK, I'm running for cover now ... :snob: did I miss any smilies
