Jlowe22 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 1 minute ago, Hunter2_1 said: Completely fair. Personally I'm more likely to go down the "worthy adversary" route, but each to their own. My first love is rugby, and there is a team even more dominant than NE in tat sport (New Zealand) who average 1 loss a year. In the end, I just go....'you are too good. Fair play'. ...cheaters I can respect an adversary for being great. I even argued for Matt Ryan MVP in 2016, despite him playing for a hated rival. Give credit where credit is due. Although I did enjoy watching the 28-3 superbowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TecmoSuperJoe Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Remarkable achievement. Definitely been a pleasure watching one of the greatest to ever play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate him because he's smug when he wins, and he's a sore loser when he loses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am tired of that team.. Isnt there ANYONE in the AFC that can threaten them? That division has been terrible for 10 years, gifting them a first round bye every year. Only having to win 2 games to go to the superbowl is a huge advantage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Bird is the only Boston sports player that I can think of that's beloved or at least liked and thought highly of outside of the New England area. Maybe Big Papi too even though he was a DH his whole career and a lot of baseball fans hate that position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt you'd like many of the guys in the NFL if you knew as much about them as you do Brady. But I get the sentiment. I don't personally care much for him myself these days.
