Mr. Amnorix
I don't "hate" the Patriots, probably dislike is a better definition. Try not to hate anyone or thing. But go to the Fox Sport Boards and its the braggart, excuse making Pats fans that really turn people off to the team. Players display some smugness which they have a right to. It's like Ali used to say. "It ain't bragging if its true" They have a right to be proud of their accomplishments thus far this season. But the fans, and I'm sure it's a minority of them have tried to stick it down every other teams fans craws all season. And I didn't like the continued scoring when in many cases it was unnecessary. I think we would all feel the same way in any game or sport that we participate in. I remember I played tennis in school and when against an overly matched opponent, might let them win a game or two just to make them feel better about the beating they took. But that's just me and professional sports are a lot different. I just hope they are four good games for this weekend. I can't remember a second round as exciting as this one could be for many years. Good luck to all fans rooting for a favorite and I hope each game comes down to a field goal, turnover or spectacular play that wins the game for their team. That to me is what it is all about. A time for a person to shine and be the hero.
