Super Bowl boycott

[OpIv37]

I'm not watching the game. I can't. I hate the Patriots. I hate seeing them win. I hate seeing them celebrate. I ****ing hate everything about that team and the thought of watching Brady, Bruschi, Seau, Moss and their cadre of dirtbags on D (Seymour, Wilfork, Vrabel, Harrison) hoist the trophy over their heads AGAIN seriously makes me feel physically ill.

I'm sick of the special treatment this ****ing team gets. Did anyone see Seymour push Rivers to the ground right in front of the ref DURING A DEAD BALL? Not only was there no flag, but the announcers ACTUALLY DEFENDED THE NON-CALL.

It's just one small example but it's a microcosm for how the league and the media view the Pats, and it's nauseating.

And just for the record, I don't have any delusions of grandeur. I'm doing this for my own sanity- not because I actually think it's going to make a difference in how the Patriots are treated by the NFL and the media.

So **** the Patriots and **** the Super Bowl as long as the Patriots are in it. I'm going skiing.

Read my thread and join me my friend!

[LtFinFan66]

I will definitely watch. To either see history made or history stopped

[SquishDaFish]

Ill watch and root hard against them. I just hope its GB

[OpIv37]

I will definitely watch. To either see history made or history stopped

I don't want to see history made- not by that team. As fans of other AFCE teams, this is going to haunt us for the rest of our lives, unless another team pulls it off (which is highly unlikely). I don't want it to happen and if it's going to happen anyway, I don't want to witness it.

[Topdog]

Sounds pretty childest to me!

[Topdog]

I hate GB!, but if they're in it I'll still watch the game!

[Luisito23]

Not only are they cheaters, but the refs, league, broadcasters, and even that idiot commissioner not only supports them, but they also turn their heads whenever they do something dirty...So F%%% NE, their scumbag players, their bandwagon fans, and anyone who supports those classless cheaters!......They can all kiss my :moon:!....BUFFALO 4 LIFE!!!.....





GO BILLS!!!!!!

[OpIv37]

Sounds pretty childest to me!

I don't want to see them win. There's a good chance they're going to win. So, what's childish about not watching it?

Do you watch crap TV shows that you don't like? Well, it's the same thing.

[helmetguy]

He said "childest," Op.

[OpIv37]

He said "childest," Op.

welcome back.

[G Wolly]

It's ok.

Brett Favre will totally own Brady and his crew of cheaters.

[DynaPaul]

I've already been onboard since the end of the season and I'm sticking to the boycott. By the way, those were some nice non-calls on the Bruschi holding in the red zone and the blatant leg whip on Rivers by a d-lineman.

[Owen DeBoard]

Very good post my man. Ive been saying it all year that not only do you have to beat the Pats but you have to beat the officials. Ive said it many times look what Terrel Suggs said after they got beat by the Pats.

[Mr. Cynical]

Just remind yourself of this and it should help ease the pain.

2007 New England Patriots *



*Caught cheating.

No matter how well they do, it's a cold hard fact. Whatever they accomplish, it's tainted. Period.

[R. Rich]

The question remains: how can such sour grapes make such fine whine?

Boycotts are not effective against shows. It is better to boycott advertisers.

[streetkings01]

Yuck!!!!!!!!!!! We have to watch a Giants vs Patriots Super Bowl.

[G. Host]

Depends on your taste in whine.

[Iehoshua]

Not watching either. Booooring.

[MikeInRoch]

It's ok.

Brett Favre will totally own Brady and his crew of cheaters.

Apparently not.

[YardRat]

I'm seriously going to consider not watching this game, and it will be the first one I haven't seen since forever.

If GB would have won, different story but NE/NY really has almost zero appeal to me.

[Philagape]

Worst! Super Bowl! Ever!

[Michael82]

Worst! Super Bowl! Ever!
Agreed! Anyone who thinks it will be close due to the final game of the season is fooling themselves. New England will make sure they don't let the Giants into this game and it should be a blowout! Plus I can't stand either team. Sorry NFL, but you lost me this year. Have fun with another Patriots championship, the dirtiest, luckiest, cheating team in the league. :ill:

[Michael82]

Yuck!!!!!!!!!!! We have to watch a Giants vs Patriots Super Bowl.
:puke:

[THE END OF ALL DAYS]

What SuperBowl?

[Scumbag College]

I'm hosting a damn SB party...I hope no one would be offended if I turned on the Weather Channel or maybe rent a movie and put it on right at kickoff.

[OpIv37]

Boycotts are not effective against shows. It is better to boycott advertisers.

Like I said: I'm not doing it because I'm under the delusion that it's going to make a difference. I'm doing it for my own sanity. Watching the Pats win is just going to make me puke beer and Tostino's all over my shoes.

[paladin warrior]

ME too I hate NE.. I will put my middle finger at T. B face.. And shover the football in his a.@@.

[RingofFire]

Have fun with another Patriots championship, the dirtiest, luckiest, cheating team in the league. :ill: Gmen played excellent down stretch and have a shot. It will be better than last years super bowl. i hate the g men as i live in giantland. but what they have done is crazy!

edited: personal attack.

[jamze132]

After the Pats won their game, I said I wasn't watching the Super Bowl either. **** them!

[Gunzlingr]

I won't watch since I don't like either team.

[mybills]

Gmen played excellent down stretch and have a shot. It will be better than last years super bowl. i hate the g men as i live in giantland. but what they have done is crazy!

The Giants happen to be my 2nd favorite team, and I've been rooting for them since the Bills (my #1 team) got knocked out. My team just won a Championship. :bravo:!

But enough about my happiness...

They have been a 4th Qtr come back team for a while..almost all season, so yes they have a shot. Eli isn't great, but he can thread a ball when he has to, and their defense is pretty damned good!

Having said all that...I won't be watching either. My stomach turns when ever I hear the name, Pats. I will record it, and if my G-men can somehow pull off a win...I will watch just to see NE LOSE! :up:

[mikemac2001]

You could always drink while its on

Be hammered by half and will keep it going till its over

[MTBillsFan]

As far back as I can remember, I always loved watching the SB. Unfortunetly, I have no desire to watch the game this year. I hate NE and I hate the Giants. I actually don't want to watch any sports for the next month because all of the NE butt kissing that will happen. It has already started in all the post game coverage... F NE!

[EricStratton]

Living in GiantLand there is a small part of me that wants to watch to see the Pats kick their asses.

I can live with the NE love easier then I can live with a bunch of fathead Tony Soprano look-a-likes in Jints jerseys yelling "Let's Go Giants" from every barstool in the state.

[Jan Reimers]

I'll be watching, just like anyone else that just can't keep their eyes off a train wreck.

[DraftBoy]

To see the greatest team to ever play the game football clinch that title and make NFL history? What are you nuts, of course Ill be watching. I dont get the boycott at all, not liking the teams is secondary to the context this has about the NFL which is the reason we even get to see the Bills play.

[Historian]

Pass.

The Historian's Annual Super Bowl Party will become the Historian's Annual 4th of July Party this Year.

[HHURRICANE]

I will definitely watch. To either see history made or history stopped

Best answer on the board comes from a fish fan.

Couldn't agree more.

[mybills]

just because it matches your opinion, it doesn't mean it's the best answer.

sorry, undefeated or not, the Pats will always be marked as cheaters. They did it and got caught.

[Mr. Pink]

The best answer is this...

You're a football fan, so watching the biggest game of the year is a requisite.

If you don't watch the big game, you're not much of a fan of the sport.

And you really aren't a fan of either of the two teams, if you don't watch the game. How one can say they like the Giants and not watch this game is blasphemous.

[DraftBoy]

:rofl: Oh I love how naive Bills fans like to be sometimes

[Buffatexas]

:rofl: Oh I love how naive Bills fans like to be sometimes

so in your world, Bonds is the undisputed HR king, Joyner the fastest women of her time, need this list go on?

if the pats go undefeated, they will be marked as such, but no one can say that they did it the whole way without "a little help". Imagine if they got caught in the last game of the year, that would have been a bigger fracas than it was.

[DraftBoy]

Yes because those words came out of my mouth, or technically were typed through my fingers.

I know a lot of base ball fans that don't watch the world series if their team isn't in it.
If someone doesn't want to watch, they DO have that right. It doesn't mean they're not a football or baseball fan. :rolleyes: It just means they don't want to see the hated team succeed, and/or the underdog lose, or they just don't care about either team.
I'd love to see the Giants kick their ass, therefore I'm setting the DVR and heading out to the movies. When I hear the final score, and they happen to pull off an upset, I will gladly watch the Pats LOSE!

[R. Rich]

They were non-technically typed through your fingers.

Did it hurt?

[Cntrygal]

If I can get my foot into a ski boot - I'll be on the slopes too!!! :10:

[Dujek]

I'll watch. I'll go to bed at 4.30am or so. My alarm will go off at 6.30am and I'll make it into work for 8, and hide in my office all day.

Why will I do this? Because it's the Super Bowl, it's the biggest game of the year, and this year it will either make me very happy or I'll see history created as the Patriots go 19-0. The way the Giants have been improving week on week throughout the playoffs means that I'm starting to think that an upset could be on the cards.

[RingofFire]

What now OP... glad u missed super bowl........ very glad hate people like you. wat now????????? you...

[LtFinFan66]

Worst! Super Bowl! Ever!Guess not eh:idunno:

[Michael82]

To see the greatest team to ever play the game football clinch that title.

:rofl: It's official, we can now give you that Patriots avatar that you so desire! :puke:

[Night Train]

Nice boycott.

Try boycotting the Bills 2008 season as your next act of brilliance.

[Discotrish]

BTW, history WAS made.

JMO.

Boycott the Super Bowl, that would be pretty :limp:

Yes Im a huge Pats fan what can I say? Sorry Mike Im not blind fan, I choose to judge objectively.

[Ickybaluky]

NFL Network is replaying it Wednesday night, in case you missed it.

I hope you watch it and I hope it causes you pain like you've never felt before, you and all the other Patriot "fans."

[gr8slayer]

Yeah, you'll learn quickly that being objective doesn't work with the WNYers. It's homer or bust.

[Ickybaluky]

I hope you watch it and I hope it causes you pain like you've never felt before, you and all the other Patriot "fans."

I plan on watching, but I don't get all upset one way or the other about things I can't control. I enjoy the games, and wish the season wasn't over more than anything.

I'm already switching into offseason mode. I hope to hear about Moss signing and extension sometime this month, and am preparing my FA lists. I'll start getting more into draft prep as well.

I was wrong about them clinching the title, and Ill admit to that, but I dont retract my comment about being the greatest team. If going undefeated is the only barometer of being the greatest team than obviously only the 72 Fins can talk.

[SquishDaFish]

They are not the greatest this year the GIANTS are :lol:

G.O.A.T.?

That's a joke. Only somebody under 25 would think that. ;)

The 72 Dolphins don't even crack the top 10. They played inferior talent just like the Pats whipped up on mostly inferior defenses. Ask any player, the reason you play this game is to win the SB. If you don't win the big game, all the talent in the world means absolutely nothing.

Were there any larger Super Bowl point spreads where the favored team lost? If not, that would be a Super Accomplishment for Brady and the Pats. Truly, they're the greatest!

Like a crack addict - I watched it. :couch:

I cooked at the VFW on Saturday & Sunday... went to the slopes for a couple hours and then back to the VFW for more cooking.... then got home about 20 minutes before kickoff.

The great news (besides the NYG's winning) - was that I can get the boot on - I'll just have to be careful and take a break every hour or so when I go to Keystone. :D
