This is coming from a Patriots fan but I am trying hard to be unbiased...
Why is it many of you fans call we Patriots fans 'unclassy' for supporting our team AND talking trash when many, if not most, of you fans from other teams are calling for your teams players to basically severely injure Tom Brady? Perhaps many of you need to look at yourselves before you call Patriots fans unclassy.

No one likes a GREAT team when it's not their own. We as Pats fan are in a CLASS of our own. I just don't understand why everyone who's NOT a Pats fan spends so much time obsessing over the PATS and not their own team??

Everyone hates a winner, especially a consistent winner. Hell, just because I am a Patriots fan I got thumbs down for saying I thought U2 honoring the 9-11 victims was awesome during their superbowl. People are brutal on here...oh, shh..and a bit jealous...ya just a little I would say.
There are plenty of unclassy fans on here. You can't take it personal. The Pats right now are the top NFL story or maybe even sports story with the possibility of going undefeated. They are in every sportsn fan's face 24-7, which in turn brings out the haters and jealous folks. Throw in the camera rule that we broke and it's anarchy all year. Every win we get, the trash talking will get worst! Although it's tough reading it and being called crap on here, I can deal with it, because that just means my team just won another game. :)

The only one I've ever really considered unclassy is Bill Belichick. He could die tomorrow and I'd have a smile on my face. I don't have a problem with anyone else on the team (save for maybe Rodney Harrison) or the fans.
Besides...everyone knows that Eagles fans are the most classless.

I haven't wished injury upon anyone. In fact, I have stated several times that while I do not like the Patriots....I have to respect the talent they have and the way they put it all together. You see....I can support my team and live in reality all at the same time.
Many fans (not just NE) are silly....they come on here and talk about how they love their team....they say GO MY TEAM and SCREW everyone else. Pats fans on this board are the worst at that....they say things like "why is Tom Brady a God?" or "We are the best team ever" (starting in week 5).
It's kind of like what Austin N does...only with a little bit of logic other than "fight on".....

We've got the Patriots, Red Sox and now the Celtics. What's to like if you are from somewhere else? Tell them all to kiss our a**es.
Did you hear all the New England fans in Baltimore last night? Places like Baltimore, with sub-.500 teams like the Ravens and Orioles, must hate it when noisy Bostonians, of dubious sobriety, take over their parks.

Is Austin N still in the house but hiding under a new avatar? He must be somewhere? At least those endless USC rants have stopped for now.
So about Pat fans, i love them. Heck, I am one! And proud of Tom Brady last night. He is a football god.

In my opionion it is because there are so many bandwagon fans for the Patriots that make true fans, like yourself look low class. There are fans of all teams that do this but I try to ignore them. Though I am not a fan of the Pats, but I am a big fan of Brady because I like the way he plays the game. I also like Romo, Big ben from the Steelers, Peyton Manning but my first choice is to cheer on my Redskins who are having a difficult season but hopefully rebound & finish up the season on a high note.

I don't remember ever cheering on the Colts to hurt Tom Brady. I think Tom Brady is classy, and very humble from all the interviews I've ever watched of him. I don't think anyone is ever called 'unclassy' for supporting their team. Maybe they would be called 'unclassy' for doing something else.

the fact that it is non-stop...it's annoying...and there is not "most" of us doing anything... just look at the freaking questions up right now... majority are patriots questions, and most make no sense and are meant to piss people off, and i know it is only one or two, maybe three of the same people, but when you keep antagonizing people this is what you get....

I have to agree, actually I have got to the point of not even posting or trying to argue with some of the "haters" or whatever they feel like calling themselves. I don't mind debating points that make sense, but to those just just want to rant or post stupid things, I just ignore them.
