FeelingOnYouboty Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 I really want to win this game on Sunday and I want Josh Allen to ball out. 4

My old man was the only person I knew who was a Pats fan before then. He got a Bledsoe jersey when he was drafted and still wears it more then his Brady jersey. Now it seems like all my relatives are Patriot bag lickers. *****, I hope we win on Sunday to rub it in their faces over Christmas.

Actually, those were the real fans, but there weren’t many of them. Anyone since 2001 are just Championship chasers. They will move on to the next dynasty soon. 1

Drew still in my mind is a hall of fame Quarterback. It always stunned me just how ill-prepared Gregg Williams had been. As the heir appearant to Joe Gibbs could never muster enough. In Cleveland he looks to finally have it together. 30 minutes ago, buffaloboyinATL said: Actually, those were the real fans, but there weren’t many of them.

Rooting for Bills, Colts, Texans, and Giants obnoxious toxicity in their own fan base drove them out.
May Day 10 Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 Andre Tippett, Irving Fryar, Stanley Morgan, Tony Eason, Steve Grogan, John Stephens

Captain Hindsight Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 Can you imagine when they miss the playoffs? If Brady retires their starter is Brian Hoyer. I still cant believe they traded Jimmy G and Brissett within 6 weeks of each other For Philip Dorsett and a second round pick (which they traded for a few 4th and 6th rounders a second next year)

Bing Bong Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 (edited) I love seeing Brady on the decline. Can't handle the blitz anymore. That 4th down throw on his last play where he had to fall down just to sling as hard as he could.. inaccurately. Was awesome. Wish I could find a GIF of the TV angle close up on him. It was pathetic.. and awesome. Allen isn't even close to declining Brady but he throws that velocity with no effort. Shannon put him on blast for falling down trying to throw ? https://youtu.be/DYrkmAVVIgE Edited December 18, 2018 by BarkleyForGOATBackupPT5P 1

It's an opinion, but I think true fans learn the team they support and likely became fans as a result of learning the history or sharing it within a family. I can only remember games from the post-kelly era, but doesn't mean I haven't seen 30 for 30 or the greatest comeback of all time. I had the family catalyst as well, but was convinced by the story.

Technically, the Bills aren't in Buffalo. I know what you meant, though - the Pats are "New England," not "Boston." But originally, they were the Boston Patriots. In order to increase their fandom - because Boston is a baseball town - they went regional with the name a few years later. Edited December 18, 2018 by WhoTom 1
The Senator Posted December 18, 2018 Posted December 18, 2018 18 hours ago, Jauronimo said: Its not even really a baseball town. Its a "Yankees Suck" town first and foremost. Its a Sox town by a distant second. Its even more distantly a Jeter Blows town. The Pats might be 6th on the Boston sports hierarchy. I beg to disagree. Having lived there almost 7 years and holding season tix to both Red Sox and Patriots, I can attest wholeheartedly that Boston is first and foremost a baseball town (maybe a “Yankees Suck” town second, but that pretty much died out after 2004). My friend’s 85 yo grandmother would be glued to the TV for every game, and name every player on the roster, probably even their batting’s average or ERA. There are so many just like her. It’s the only city I know of the actually has a visible beacon atop one of their tallest, most historic buildings, the old Hancock Building, to let folks know that the game is on or rained out - it can be seen throughout the city and surrounding suburbs https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases.detail.html//content/prnewswire/us/en/news-releases.detail.html/john-hancock-weather-beacon-flashes-red-and-blue-to-celebrate-red-sox-world-series-victory-230044391.html.html All that said, Patriots fans are the most fair weather fans I know of. Soon, they’ll all be Giants fans again, like they were before the AFL. .
