Between the Red Sox and the Patriots championship parades.
Between the Red Sox and the Patriots championship parades.
I thought you were going to say "between the last two Patriots super bowl wins."
Ohh look a bragging patriots fan. Fun fact. We don’t hate you because we’re not you. We hate you because you’re you.
Are the Patriot fans as hard on non-fans as the Red Sox are to Yank fans?

It's not the Patsies' fault that they are the only decent team in the AFC for ten years. They are like the Lakers of the 80's.

This is how I feel about green bay.
I assume this thread is a discussion about boring 4 down football, right? The game played on the little field? (CFL fan is disguise here)
Come on Bruins and Celts!
So Brady cheated his way to another victory eh?
In last night's game, the punter was the MVP.

So are you a Roughriders or Rough Riders fan?

If that’s what talent, determination, training, strategy, and a bit of luck are called.
As a MA resident, I'm of the mind that Brady should move on to his next challenge. The level of hatred toward him and the Pats is not good for football. He has set some incredible records. He is going to tower over the QB record books forever. At some point, enough is enough. Time to let others have time in the sun. Plus, the knowledge and experience that he could bring to groom the next generation of QBs/offense would only go to make the athletes better.
Most boring Superbowl ever.

He should try to be in more stupid commercials that John Elway.

Seven Scenarios In Which You Will Tell Your Grandchildren About Super Bowl LIII
1. You need to teach your grandchildren about the dangers of sports betting and you happen to be the anonymous guy, “Bettor X,” who wagered seven figures on Jared Goff. (In retrospect, it was extremely smart to stay anonymous, Bettor X.)
2. They ask you about how the Great Corn Wars began.
3. You are third-string Patriots running back Rex Burkhead, and you have every reason to be proud of your 43-yard performance.
4. Your grandson is sick and you’re going for a Princess Bride type thing, but you also hate him.
5. Catastrophic climate change has turned America into an uninhabitable wasteland. In order to raise your family’s spirits as you embark on a dangerous journey to obtain potable water, you explain that things weren’t always great in the Before Times, either. “There were so many punts, children,” you’ll say.
6. “Why don’t football games have halftimes anymore, Paw-Paw,” your granddaughter asks. She only makes it through 10 seconds of “Moves Like Jagger” before collapsing in tears. It will be your last time babysitting.
7. They refuse to believe there was once a time when Cleveland didn’t win every Super Bowl, and so you have no choice but to tell them about the last pre-Browns championship team. “It sounds awful,” they exclaim.
“It was,” you say. “It was.”

I think you mean Payton Manning. Elway spends too much time running the Broncos to do anymore ads.
In reply to Fueled by Caffeine :
Not sure why people thought the game was so bad- unless you have this thing with huge scoring. Defenses win championships, and both D's played really, really well.
And, because of that, the game went really fast.
In reply to alfadriver :
Generally I'd agree that you don't need both teams scoring 40+ points to make it a good football game. But while both defenses certainly played very well (particularly up front, I thought), it just lacked the feel of a great defensive battle. Brady was hardly playing his best ball and Goff was downright sloppy for much of the game and I think that accounted for the low score as much as the defensive efforts.
In reply to Furious_E :
But it's easy to make an argument that both Brady and Goff struggled due to the D. Goff really looked bothered by the pressure- even if sometimes it wasn't real- so NE did a great job making him think he was always in a hurry. Brady did make some bad passes, sure- but some of that was the Ram's really good defensive line.
That's what great D looks like in the passing age- lots of rushed and incomplete passes, which isn't all that exciting.
I think the perception is a result of good solid defense being played by both sides.
The solid, consistent performance made the game seem lacking because there weren’t the big receptions/interceptions or big momentum swings that a big play can create making the game more exciting.

I don't even like the Patriots (at all) and I think he should keep going as long as he can. If you're still writing the record book, why quit?
As long as his body is holding out, it'll be fine. Though, the older he gets, the more likely a good hit is to put a stop to his career.

I see the logic in that. Its just when you see everyone outside of New England, and Fairfield County, CT are rooting for anyone but the home town team, that perhaps you might want to consider an exit strategy beyond I'll keep going as long as I can...
