I've never heard a team cry more about getting "no respect" than the universally adored media poster boys from New England. You wouldn't expect an unbeatable dynasty like the Pats to have to manufacture an "us against the world" attitude for such a big game.

I heard Freddie Mitchell couldn't name the capital of Massachusetts when asked by reporters. Just in case the Patriots defense didn't have enough reason to tackle him when he has the ball on Sunday.

You mean the same media that all but guaranteed that Peyton Manning would rip the Pats apart a few weeks ago?

Not only that, but their fans don't think that highly of the team either. Most of the talk before the Colts games was of the weather, how Manning would not be able to handle the cold and snow. Only a hand full of posters knew or talked about the Pats players.

If the big money starts to move the line down, I'll jump on it and take the points.
