I do hate the Pat's (but not as much as the Fins) and they do get a awful lot of breaks in games. I'll root like heck for Indy next week, but will always root for an original AFC team in the Super Bowl. I have too much of a grudge against the NFC and all of the crap surrounding the 15 or so wins in a row from the mid 80's through the late 90's.
What sticks in my craw about New England is my team has had it's ups & downs but got really great for 6 years. They went to 5 of 6 AFC Championship games, winning 4. They go to 4 straight Super Bowls and lose 4 in row. Granted, i don't think they were a better team than the '92 or '93 Cowboys, but were for damn sure better than the '90 Giants and the '91 Skins, and SHOULD be 2 and 2 in the big bowl.
New England, with a few exceptions, has truly been one of a handful of teams that has been worse than the Bills throughout history. They get great for 6 years and win 3 out of 5 Super Bowls. ARGH!
Let's face it folks, the Pat's just won the Super Bowl yesterday to go 4 out of 6. I will shocked if any of the other 3 teams left can beat them. Let the drinking begin.
