I can see it now.....the Pats go down in the playoffs (doesn't mattter to me who does it) and oh.....the travesty!! The unfairness of it all!!

And we will sit through the entire SuperBowl broadcast hearing about nothing but Tom Brady this, Tom Brady that.

Bank on it. If you drank a shot for everytime one of those bozos says Tom Brady's name, you'll be on the floor by the end of the first quarter................

I just love the commercials this past weekend for NFL network. "See the Patriots only on NFL network!" I'm kinda glad I don't get that channel now...

its even worse on espn.. they have their own ticker for christ's sake. i do not understand that at all.. super bowl champions, mlb champions, nba champions, etc never even got their own damn ticker... yet they are crowning the patriots as the greatest team in sports history.

I just wanted to see if the Steelers/Rams replay might be on but it appears their showing all of the Pats games from this season along with highlights of past Pats seasons. I had to change the channel its so disgusting!

If you think its bad now wait till (IF) they win the SB. Then it'll start all over again next fall until they lose a game.

I know! The Red Sox never got a ticker. How come the Patriots do.

I want a ticker.

the patriots are not bigger than the nfl and the red sox are not bigger than the mlb.. no team deserves that.

I hate the pats as well as the next Steeler fan, but I plan on watching Saturday night to see, most likely, history being made.
I have NFL Network, but now they are saying that the game will be simulcast on NBC and CBS, so everyone will get a chance to see it.

I was going to start a separate thread with this news, but I just couldn't bring myself to starting a pats related thread.

i wonder if CBS and NBC plan on having their own 3 hour pregame tribute to the patriots.

"history" (tainted) or not, i cant believe so much hubub is being made over a meaningless game, no more important than a preseason game, where everybody already knows the outcome.

the oversaturation is starting to get very irritating (none of the coverage bugged me during the season) but now its really over the top, and seems to be getting bigger than the sport itself.

whats funny, is its something most die hard fans are not rooting for, and will tune in with hopes of seeing them defeated.

its kinda like most americans probably wouldnt want to view a live electrocution or hanging but would probably tune in if it were osama bin laden being exocuted.

now of course, i'll be tuning in, but only because im a football junkie and would probably be watching if it were seattle vs. miami.
