Then that arrogant BS about being "America's team",when most of them were big-time cokeheads-they should have called themselves South America's team! How long before Keyshawn Johnson gets benched again?😕 😉

And if we're talking college football, Fresno State looks like the surprise team of the year.

Originally posted by sam9I never could understand people whgo say they hate the Patriots. Granted, I'm a bit biased, as they're my team, but what reasons do the Pats give for people not to like them? The fact that they have no superstar players? The fact that their coaching staff promotes teamwork and each player putting his team first? The fact that Belichick finds a role for every last man on his roster? I mean it's not like they have a long tradition of dominating their sport like the Yankees, so someone who hates the Patriots, please tell me reasons.

My reason is simple: I was born and partly raised in Miami and am hence a Dolphins fan. I hate the Bills, I HATE the Jets, and I HATE the freakin Patriots. I've heard fans like you call it jealousy, and I'm not going to say that I don't wish that my team could have won two Superbowls in the last three years (we won back-to-back ones in the 70s, btw!!!), but the simple fact is that I trully believe that my team is better than the Patriots and that our opportunity is coming. I think even you can admit that there are few teams that give you guys a run for your money like my Dolphins, and usually the games you win over us (like most of the games your team wins) are by the skin of your teeth. And don't forget about our bet this season!!! 🙂 GO DOLPHINS!

Originally posted by seraphimvultureWell, you have a fair reason for hating the Patriots. Although I'm a bit dismayed you don't pull for us, or any of the other AFC East teams, when your team is out of it. Back when Marino's career was coming to an end, I was pulling for the Fish all the way since I knew my team wasn't going anywhere. I always liked Marino and at the time, nothing would have made me hapier than to see him win one.

Anyway, the guy I replied to is obviously a Cowboy fan, so it puzzles me that he hates the Patriots. When has there ever been a rivalry between these two teams? Shouldn't he hate the Redskins and the Giants?

Well I think everyone was sort of pulling for Marino, because everyone really wanted to see him get a ring. Its unfortunate that he never really got a chance, except for the 84 Superbowl but he was only in his 2nd year then. And what you need to understand is that so far, my team has never really been "out of it". Every year we have a chance at a playoff spot by the end of the season, and once we're out I really just watch the playoffs for the joy of the game, and dont bother rooting for either side.
Also, I should add that another little reason I don't like the Patriots is because I bet against them to win the Superbowl last season and when they did I had to shave my head, lol. Its since grown back of course but I had a nice goose-egg atop my head for about a month! lol
