“95% of NFL fans despise the Patriots.””

I’m amazed at it, but then a remembrance of the old Yankees’ monopoly on baseball crowns made me realize that that’s how people are. The more pennants the Yankees won, the more people hated them.

And General Motors in its heyday was hated and persecuted and prosecuted for its success.

Several years ago, in Boston in the dead of Winter during a rally after the first Patriot's Super Bowl win...the crowd broke out into a chant of "Yankees suck." I was astonished to learn of this mindlessness.

That is the way that is it seems.
