No Rogah no. Don't play coy. You don't have a soft spot for Pats. You are defending them as if you are a die hard Pats fan. Sorry bud, but I have to call you out.
You know what soft spot is? A soft spot is for a father to root for the team he hated once. My 9 year old son is a Cowboys fan and I am a Giants fan. When he was growing up, I got him an NFL sticker book. Somehow he liked the Star logo. Started asking me questions about Cowboys. I didn't think he would turn into a Cowboys fan and I answered all his questions honestly. Told him all about Cowboys. Turns out, the things I told him about Cowboys made him love Cowboys more. When he started reading well, I got him a book about NFL QB's. That's when he liked Romo. And one day, while watching a Cowboys-Giants game, he said, daddy I am Cowboys fan. I dropped the remote and said what???? He said he liked Cowboys and I had to respect that. Next year, he saw a kid at school with Romo jersey and came home. He asked me to buy him a Romo jersey. I got him a Romo jersey. And day by day, he became a bigger Cowboys fan.
And since he now cries when Cowboys lose, I have a soft spot for Cowboys. I was as upset as you guys when they called the Dez catch a non catch. Whatever. Don't get me mixed up. I want to beat Cowboys all the time but if Giants aren't in the playoffs or anything I will root for Cowboys just so my son sees a Superbowl victory.
That said, your Pats are cheaters. Stop acting like your love for Pats is close to your soft spot love for other teams you listed. You truly are something else Rogah. Don't deny it. Sorry sir. I am not a guy who does personal attacks but you just are too much.
