I’m done posting to people who find the highlight of their day trashing an entire organization, and delighting in their loss. Now, talk about poor sportsmanship. I agree with you. There are many more important things going on in the world than to waste time hating one man or one organization.

I find that rooting for someone to lose is the mark of a loser. I have heard people whine about breaking video taping rules, running up the score, the coach not being nice and a whole bunch of other stuff. Even though they beat everyone each week and sometimes in rather impressive fashion it never was enough.

They lose one game and they are chumps. The guys who won last night’s game lost 6 games all year and they are suddenly a better team? The Pats were playing for something bigger than a mere SB, they were playing for a perfect season. They won more games in a row than the 1972 Dolphins who played a weaker schedule overall. The Giants won last night fair and square but on the whole they underperformed just about all year. They got three chances to beat the Cowboys. Three. Funny but of the Pats had lost the first meeting and won the rematch then things would be soooooo different in everyone’s eyes because in people’s minds the guy who wins the last game is the better team.
