congrats y'all

:D

Is a patrito a diminutive Latino/mexican patriot? Do they have patrita partners?
I keep seeing the title of this thread and wondering, like.

Gronk said they were getting Rick Ross to play their party tonight
--kurt kobaïan (upper mississippi sh@kedown)

surprising if true, would expect something more like imagine dragons for this team

what does that even mean

that I can easily imagine tom brady liking imagine dragons?

i was on the phone with my early '90s roommate -- a low-bore Pats fan -- at the end of the game, and couldn't explain to him why they are such a loathed franchise outside of N.E. ("They haven't won in 10 years!" was his protest.) Any good columns on this recently?

idk why i should explain this to anyone but: 2007, spygate, "running up the score," 18-1, been loathed ever since.

i mean their unprecedented degree of success in the salary cap era would result in them being loathed for one reason or another, but 2007 is really what it comes down to in terms of when and why the tide turned.

good info here too: http://tinyurl.com/4blq6y

also: terrible in Tecmo Super Bowl

ok

i don't know what "2007" means.

also: Tom Brady is not a good ole boy manning type

hey am i the only one who didn't know that LaGarrotte Blount is the nephew of SUN RA?????? wow

ha what really

This run against the Colts not only highlights Blount's intelligence as a runner but also his athleticism to negate potential tacklers in space.

i didn't know that! crazy.

ha what really

yah sun ra is herman blount, i guess lagarrote is is grand nephew crazy world

the vikings had christian ballard for awhile, grandson of r&b legend hank ballard but i guess he quit football altogether

kevin love is the nephew of beach boy mike love

yah but that's well publicized i feel like

that '07 wiki thing remains puzzling... so they became hated for daring to lose only the Super Bowl?

I'm not even sure who was in the World Series when ppl say a year like "2007" (but prob 2nd Red Sox title?) because if leagues in the Tournament Era wanted us to remember, they wouldn't have 4000 rounds of playoffs to anonymize everything.

It was annoying because fans had to endure a month of "Is this the best NFL team ever? Yes, definitely!" thinkpieces leading up to them losing to Eli Manning.

one thing that irked people in 2007 was this idea that the Pats unnecessarily ran up the scores in their games. it wasn't very sporting or somesuch.

and of course there was spygate

that '07 wiki thing remains puzzling... so they became hated for daring to lose only the Super Bowl?

they got branded as cheaters following the first week of the season, and their response was to mercilessly napalm the league to the tune of scores like 52-7 and 56-10 while playing offense at a level that hasn't really been seen before or since.

by the time the playoffs rolled around, the country could be understood in rooting against them.

yah sun ra is herman blount, i guess lagarrote is is grand nephew crazy world

not quite as cool, but also shane vereen/ben vereen (first cousin, once removed).
