Thank you thank you thank you!!!
I can't stand to read all these ignorant questions/comments by all these Pats bandwagoneers. They won't own up to the fact that Bill Belichick cheated! They always have some excuse! An asterisk needs to be beside every single win that they have ever since Belichick has been the head coach!!!

Alright. So they cheated ONE game. They have been accused of roughly four other games, but so far only one has been proven. Doesn't mean that they aren't good. They are very good and extremely talented. Losing coordinator after coordinator and rebuilding their defense and offense every year yet still making the playoffs as a favorite. They are smart and they do push the limits, but they have won lots of games the right way. I'm no fan of the Patriots, I can't wait for them to lose (as I always hope they will), but I won't deny that they aren't good. It is like saying USC is way overrated in college football (or LSU or even Spurs in basketball). The facts are there. People bandwagon all the time in every sport, get over it. USC fans have been crawling all over the place (and in my opinion they didn't deserve the share of the title that one year), but oh well. Guess what? That is the game. I'm sure you didn't pick your favorite team because they were consistently losing. The team either runs in the family or you saw a team on the rise and started to support their run. Saying they are overrated is ignorant, and saying they have been doing it for years is just plain out wrong. Hop off the hatewagon and just laugh when they lose to the Colts again in the playoffs.

Wow, all you people still on the "cheating" incident. GET OVER IT!!! Even with the signals they had to execute and they did!!! So stop your jealousy on the pats!!! and another thing is that they are not overrated!!!!! Have u been watching them this season? They will prove it when they plays the cowboys and the colts later this year...just watch.
I've been a pats fan since 96, and I do live in New england. I also like the red sox and celtics. So you can say im a hometown kinda guy.

Ok...what makes us bandwagoners? the fact that we supported a crappy team in a crappy stadium for years and now that they started winning are quick to tell everyone about it. Just because they are the most dominant team in football and have by far the most talent in the league doesnt make their fans "bandwagoners". They are finally the best team in the league and we like to let people know about it.
As for the cheating: you are an idiot. First of all there is no proof that the Pats cheated for years. Secondly Shawne Merriman tests positive for HGH last year, is suspended four games, comes back and helps lead his team to the best record in the league, yet Rodney Harrison uses it (to recover from an injury) and is the worst guy in the NFL. Quit your bitching the patriots beat your team cause you arent as good. And try to tell me that your team doesnt steal signals. Im not saying what belichek did was right (it wasnt, it was stupid, uncessary, and ridiculous to uses video equipment), but for all these teams (eagles, jets) to come out of the woods and say "yeah they cheated against us too" is retarded. Just take your whooping from the leagues best team like a man.
Oh and dont be mad that Randy Moss is back to his old form.

NO KIDDING! I'm in the midwest and everytime I see someone wearing Patriots garb, I think I should ask to see their closet full of Cowboys garb from the 90s and 49ers garb from the 80s.

I love how the pats fans are saying, "oh the nfl handled it, we got fined and a first round pick was taken away". cmon the nfl suspended players who got in trouble with the law (even those who hadnt been convicted of anything) but the patriots get fined for CHEATING. Who are we to know that didnt effect the outcome of some games dating back to who knows when. The commissioner gave them a slap on the wrist. GO COWBOYS!!!

they seem to always have to cheat and why is that? Its because the team is like the redsox they suck and they need that edge to stay on top.

Every other team did it too. Now its a level playing field which is not good for Patriots opponents.

People really need to let this go...Belichick violated a rule in the Jets game...The NFL dealt with it...Belichick got a $500,000 fine...The team got a $250,000 fine...Patriots lose a first round draft pick...Move on...
