Who are you cheering for in the Super Bowl?

[Roger]

Y'know, this is why I don't like sports, and politics for that matter. Despise? Hate? What does that have to do with the game? The Patriots play a good game and win. I remember when they went to the Super Bowl and lost like they weren't even there.

The cheating scandal? Like politics, I am sure if the Patriots did it (and got caught, and sucked up to it and paid the fine for it rather quickly if I remember) what makes you so sure no other team does it too? I don't know why they did it and I don't think any of you do either.

Bob Craft? He put the team together and got them a home. He yanked a lot of chains around here too, and my town didn't get much either. If your parents did some shady deals should we blame you too?

And another thing -- it's not Boston vs New York (City). It's Foxborough MA (well, technically all of New England) vs East Rutherford NJ. Those other cities get the parades and the glory only.

I'm not saying this because the Patriots are my neighbors. I have neighbors in houses down the street from me I don't like. I just ignore them. (And I'm polite to them and their children.) They aren't worth the time to "hate". Plus I grew up outside NYC, so I got the best (and worst) of both worlds.

Hmph! I'm sorry for this rant. I'm going back to play with the robot. And I'll probably still fall asleep watching the Pats win.
