New England Patriots

Lots of people like to hate on my New England Patriots, and I've often struggled to understand why. Luckily, last week I came upon an infographic that cleared it all up for me. I don't want to insert it as an image as it's rather large, so here's a link to it for your viewing pleasure: http://goo.gl/Z5YYhG

Looking at these stats, while nothing I was not already aware of, presented boldly and concisely in one place it suddenly dawned on me. They hate us cause they ain't us. I mean really, who could blame the Bills fans for hating us? As of last night, they've got a 0.125 win-loss ratio against us across 32 games, that has to hurt. The Jets and Dolphins fans are doing comparatively well really, with .30 and .32 respectively, but even then they've won less than one third of their games against us. And forget Falcons, Cowboys, Jaguars, and Eagles fans, nobody likes to get curb stomped so I can empathize, really I can -- especially for those teams who only play us every four years, I can't imagine what that's like, losing to the same team for over a decade.

What really saddens me the most is how people can let their distress at their team's inability to measure up warp and twist them into believing anything they hear that might explain and make up for their team's poor performance. The latest bandwagon of note is, naturally, this whole Deflategate nonsense. People are so desperate to find some reason to justify their hatred that they're willing to blindly accept nonsense uncorroborated by facts from biased sources. So many people just blithely jump on the 'Patriots Cheated' bandwagon without asking themselves what actual evidence there is. It's really too bad when people are so blinded by hatred that they'll take the word and judgement of a man who lets rapists and wife beaters off the hook.

Fear not, my friends, Patriots Nation will not hold these transgressions against you. We know your struggle, we understand your pain, we were once in your shoes. Fear not that you will be hated for your transgressions against our team, we know that you were blind to your actions, manipulated by a system not of your choosing. The Church of Foxborough is open to all who open their hearts to the one true team. Our benevolent leader Pope Belichick and Brother Brady will welcome you with open arms and embrace you warmly. Hark! Take care avoid the temptations offered to you by fallen ones like Robert Goodell and Ted Wells, they want only your money and will take your soul to get it.
