For the record, what is your team?
I get that your stating Pats fan are knee-jerking in their support of Brady, and my take on this is that is certainly true, but what I also find is that opposing team's supporters are equally against Brady--especially those who use derogatory terms like Cheatriots, Billecheat, etc., etc.
BTW, I am an Alabamian. We care a LOT more about UA versus AU. Everyone has taken a side and if it were not for Christianity and the law, a lot of people would beat, fight or even KILL for their team against the others side's fans....
I like the NY teams. And of course other teams supporters are against the pats and Brady. Other fans are against the NYY and Arod as well but that in and of itself has nothing to do with guilt or innocence . Perennial winners like the NYY and Pats will always be despised by certain fans of the game because of jealousy. Of course they won’t say that so they come up with other reasons for their dislike for these opponents such as higher payrolls for the Yankees allowing them to buy the championship and favoritism by the officials and an easier schedule for the Pats.
When this sort of thing happens the detractors have something REAL they can latch on to which proves they were right all along.
