Why does a Southern website defend the most Northern East football team?

I don't get it.

Why do the Pats get all this love but Notre Dame does not?

Everything about the Pats -

NE coaches, ND heritage, hating Southern football - per Belechick, Parcells, Weiss, etc...quotes.

Should irate this site.

But Pats (outside of the Saints) are the favorite son. What gives?


Is this English?

So we should throw out logic and common sense because the Pats are from the NE?

I would love to hear what you think the reason is.

I would say that alot of this board is in there 20s which means the Pats started there run when they were young kids and the Saints sucked so they latched on and never let go. Which there is nothing wrong with. Pro sports teams are ok do this with, it is for entertainment

Interestingly enough, I was one of the outliers. I wanted the Eagles to get one that one time because I did like watching McNabb play growing up. It was so painful seeing them come up short. Despised that franchise ever since.

“I thought that there was a rule against that,” Roethlisberger said, via USA Today’s Tom Pelissero. “Maybe there’s not. Maybe it’s just an unwritten rule. .. We saw it on film, that the Patriots do that. They shift and slide and do stuff on the goal line, knowing that it’s an itchy trigger finger-type down there.”

Great quote

In other words, we've seen them do this in the past and not get penalized, therefore they should have gotten penalized when they did it to us. No? Well they shouldn't have done it anyway because we didn't prepare for it, even though we knew going into this game it's a tactic they might try and use.

If the entire D-line shifting before the snap is cheating them I've been cheating on Madden for a long, long time

Saw Vinatieri as a 9 year old kick it to win their first SB. Hated the Rams at the time because I'm a Saints fan first and foremost (I know that seems unlikely). Rooted for them as my AFC team ever since. The mutual hatred for Goodell from Bountygate and Deflategate certainly made me more of a fan of the Pats. Still don't pull for them when they play the Saints though.

I'm sorry you continue to be wrong. The Yankee / Jet fan is the worst in sports.

Take the worst NE fans and add all of the NY fans together, and they still aren't worse than Philly fans.

Patriots just smarter than the others

They just consistently violate the spirit of the rules (when they aren't violating the letter of the rules).

Then why not just go 10 dive on 1 or silent count when they see them lined up like that. It would have been an easy TD.

What "spirit" of the rule did they break here?

I'm watching Schein on cbs sports. He just said Tomlin cried about the headsets to keep the media from questioning Haley's horrific play call on the first drive when he ran that throw back to Brown for the reverse pass. Lol
