Touché'
ouch
I see someone is all BUT-HURT
, I got under their skin,
you're lashing out/acting out, poor little NE snowflakes,
do you need to go to your safe spaces now
,
the truth/facts hurts doesn't it ?
...
I know all to well, my teams history, I'm not the one in denial...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NFL_win–loss_records
Prior to about 2005-ish, IIRC the Oakland & LA Raiders were
still the #1 Team in all the AFL/NFL winning-est %'s,
all thru the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's combined %'s only up-to/until mid 2000's
we fell off the map, after that...
We are 12th now, still above the middle of the pack,
even after 10+ losing seasons...
IIRC NE is only
5th now, Dolphins, Bears, Packers & Cowboys
are all still ahead of NE Patriots
yea ha' congrats, your 5th all time...
,
It's all in fun anyway, no offense taken...
I can handle it... I'm use to it lately...
Hell,
not like any of US "actually" have anything to do with
either teams wins, "their cheating" or their losses for that matter...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There was a sign in the Oakland/LA Raiders locker rooms
to paraphrase;
Rule #1 Cheating is encouraged whenever possible
Rule #2 when in doubt, refer back to rule #1
...or something like that...
Difference is the
Raiders owned it,
accepted the bad boy rebel label, right or wrong,
reality or not, they did what they needed to,
they had all the celebrities hanger on around constantly
like NE has today...
Only because they were winners...
But Raiders wore it like pride & not just lie, spy, cover it up,
than cheat & lie/cry like a bitch, whine & howl like a Liberal Dog,
that got kicked in the *** & then shy away from reality/truth,
not take the due punishments...
----------------------------------------------------------
I think, so do many others that aren't blinded/NE lovers, many/most
all believe NE Patriots will be remembered "as much for the blatant cheating"
{
several times, 4 times min. league took action, penalties/suspensions,
2 times NE lost 1st rd draft picks "taken away", players & several paid
team personnel, coaches, videographers, ball boys, QB, coaches, owner
were suspended &/or fined & 1st ever team owner fined $1 million for his
roll etc., 1st ever head coach fine $500k, it's far from a coincidence, it's not
just once, 4 times "we know of", they were actually caught in the past 15 years,
that is a real pattern/habit, I'm 100% sure there's more we don't know about}
"just as much as their recent winning streaks/super bowl runs",
especially during the Brady/Billacheat eras...
It won't mean **** in the long run, all people care about is winning...
That's the sad part, it's not good for the sportsmanship, integrity of the sport/game...
It's all about the fame, marrying a super model, selling your diet or a book,
celebrations/parades, stroking their own egos, the TV ratings & the $$$$$$$...
