This little site has been dedicated to the Patriot's inglorious past, just to give everyone perspective. With that in mind, I'm going to digress for a moment to explain something about the Patriot's fans.
So, it's been said that we are arrogant and obnoxious.
Damn right. And to explain why, let me give you a little analogy, if I may.
Do you remember the kid in high school that wore the blue plaid button down shirt, the white socks with the black shoes, the pants that only went down to his calves. Remember him? The guy with the pocket protector and the horn-rimmed glasses? The guy who weighed about a buck-ten? Yeah, him. The guy that got stuffed in his locker all the time.
Well, picture that guy after five years. Picture him after he discovered the beauty of a gym. After he got all new clothes and gained 60 pounds of muscle.
After those five years, lets just say he ran into one of those guys who kept stuffing him into a locker and then proceeded to beat the crap out of him. What do you think he would do then; help him up and shake his hand, or smack him across the mouth and mock him in front of his girlfriend?
The better part of 40 years the Patriots were that guy with the pocket protector until Scott Piolo, Robert Kraft and Bill Belichick showed them where the gym was. Now it's our turn.
As for running up the score, I don't recall any hue and cry when in 1986 when the Chicago Bears send a 700-pound defensive tackle to score a touchdown during the 46-10 Super Bowl route. Do you?
