Here's what pissed me off," Johnson said. "The Patriots, obviously, I respect their coach, I respect Bill [Belichick], I respect Tom Brady, but just because the way that they won the Super Bowls, the Patriot Way, is that how everybody else is supposed to do the same thing? No, it's not. And that's what I got mad at, the arrogance by them. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo86 Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Yesterday's news, but it still cracks me up: One morning in spring training, 2017, he was in the coaches’ room looking at his cell phone text messages. Ichiro told the coaches about one message he had just received from a number he didn’t recognize. The guy said he’d gotten Ichiro’s number from Alex Rodriguez, and that he wanted to come meet him and study his stretching system. “What’s the guy’s name?” asked one of the coaches. Ichiro scrolled to the end of the text. “Some guy named Tom Brady. Who the f— is Tom Brady?” The point of the story, which comes via Don Mattingly, is that Ichiro is so focused on baseball that he didn’t know one of the most famous pro athletes today. Not knowing who Tom Brady is must be pretty awesome. 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimKellyTryouts Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Poor little Tommy lost a super bowl and couldn't even shake Foles' hand. And I remember back in 2007 vs NYG, Bill walked off the field after the game was decided but there still was time to go. Had the results been different, they'd obviously go through the motions of sportsmanship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Linen Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Many great teams are hated during their run - then often years later are talked about with respect, even by some that hated them during the run. I believe the Patriots will be the first team that even years and decades after will not be talked about in the same way. The media adores them but I don't think fans will ever come around to talking about them in a positive way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they had become a "real" dynasty they would have been dancing all over the field! And people here would have been travelling through the country (world?) with their Bills gear on, doing the "Redd Fox Heartache" in bars, hotel lobbies, and anywhere else people gather. I loved it, too. Explain the difference between "cocky" and "arrogant"? Edited May 16, 2018 by OJABBA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one I know-even their own fans- argue with any vehemence that the first 3 wins are legitimate. The main thing to most sport fans I know is that everything they do is tainted. I honestly have no idea if they cheat anymore but they are like the kid in the neighborhood who would cheat anytime he started losing-they have no credibility and the NFL is suffering from it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 You know I had completely forgotten about Brady not shaking Foles hand......

ExiledInIllinois Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 The Pats** will be remembered for being cheaters and poor sports, sore losers along with being champions. I true indicator of what kind of champion a team is how they act when they do lose. The Pats** act deplorable when they lose. Why not shake the hands of their victors? They failed this test on multiple occasions (not a fluke) and it is telling about the Pats** character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they mean the pettiness of the team and getting caught cheating that the fans won't forget. To a certain extent, the steroids of the 1970s, etc... Stick with past champions like Raiders, Steelers. The NFL should have treated them like the 1919 "Black" Sox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Kraft owns 42% of Textron, I would not be surprised if he had drones all over the place. He also owns 28% of Abeam Tech a Nano Tech company. I think Kraft is starting to relate the football season to Iraq. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 When 1 team does this much winning for so long, most fans of the sport are going to divide into two camps. Those who either love them or DESPISE them. It's why so many people still hate the Yankees and Canadiens, and always will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
