I hate when anyone uses this word to describe a sports franchise who has experienced success. Sorry, but the Pats of the 2000s/2010s, the Niners of the 80s, and the Steelers of the 70s/80s just don't fit the mold. When I lived in CT for 2 long years around ignorant Pats fans, they were uttering this word after their second SB win. I, too, was pulling for the Pats in the SB with the Rams because of the Cinderella (aka Brady - who acts like Cinderella now) story. They were humble then, or at least Brady was. Now, they're just a bunch of punks with bad attitudes in winning and losing, especially losing.
