Fair enough, I can't stomach rooting for the Pats. I just can't. I'm sorry to those of you that feel otherwise. But, I just... I just can't pull for them. I at least have friendly relationships with a lot of Eagles fans. All the Pats fans I know are OBSCENELY obnoxious. Plus, I remember the last time the Eagles went to the playoffs, how we swept them a year later. I just can't pull for New England. Not to mention that my family and friends that are Eagles fans and me have a long standing agreement that, provided our team is eliminated (and this year it's my team that's eliminated) that we'd pull for the other person's team. So, if this were the Cowboys, they'd be pulling for us (especially considering the opponent).
Not to mention that I have this sick feeling that the Pats may well win on BS calls. I just have a bad feeling about it. Yes, they're an elite team, but they get some sickening calls that make me really question why I watch the NFL anymore. The only reason I still watch the NFL is the Cowboys and playoff football. That's it for me at this point. And I was as big of an NFL fan up until about 2 years ago, but EVERYTHING about the NFL lately has eroded my NFL viewing. FIFA got HAMMERED for half of what appears to be going on in the NFL. So, almost as a gasp of hope for the NFL, I'm going against NE. Not to mention that I've been to both Philly and Boston and would rather be in Philly any day. I couldn't stand Boston. Not to mention that I actually like New Jersey a lot.
