5. Don't count this game as a win just yet, dude.
I'm not that worried if the Pats go undefeated or not. The playoffs and Super Bowl are the only games I care about them winning.

This is definitely the game of the year, though.

6. Screw Manning!
We aren't going to run INTO them, we are going to run OVER them.

7. You really hate Boston, don't you?

This is your second thread about hating New England sports teams.

The hate that is expressed toward New England teams on DU is like the hate Republicans express toward liberals. In other words, it's irrational and tells more about the person spewing hate than the object of that hate. It's very sad.

8. You're reading an awful lot into that post.
Edited on Mon Oct-29-07 12:16 PM by Richardo
Most would see it as a good-natured ribbing. Harmless trash-talk at the very worst. In fact, it's more of a positive Colts booster than a Patriots slam.

And he doesn't use the word 'hate' even once, as opposed to the six times we see it in your post.

Lighten up, Francis.

10. We get it a lot.
Like, a WHOLE lot. And yes, well before the Sox won in 2004. Lots of people just hate anything from Massachusetts.

This poster, being on DU, is not likely in that category, as it has mostly to do with politics, but still, it's something typically encountered.

11. Ribbing and trash-talk.
I'm a sports fan, OK? That's what we do. Particularly when there is an abundance of trash-talking New Englanders in the Lounge (see the various "it's good to be a sports fan in Boston these days" threads/posts).

I never said I hate anybody. All I did was a little ribbing to remind some people that there IS another undefeated team in the NFL. There IS another great quarterback besides Brady. Etc.

It's going to be THE game of the season! I can't wait.

9. Like Belicheck, I'll let the Pats players do the talking on this one.
Suffice it to say I don't see their average margin of victory taking a dip this week.
