Why do they show shots of the city of Boston during every Pats game?

Yeah let's do that again. Nobody's gonna want to say they even played in the game, let alone won.

I mean, does anyone really win if both teams just poo poo their pants all game?

I'm going to the Pats because I think Brady with four rings is kind of deserved considering I think he's the best QB of all time.

Pretty much how I feel as well. I can't speak for all time, but definitely the best I've ever seen play.

Looking forward to a better game than last years Super Bowl for sure.

New England isn't even a state, it's a defined geographical region. It'd be like them just calling themselves the American Patriots. Bad form Patriots, bad form!

They wouldn't do that because why pretend anywhere else in America matters?

The best part of the New England Patriots is when people from Maine support them as the hometown team because they are also New England

You're right, they should probably support.... the Alouettes?

Football in New England is slim pickings. Gotta support the team.

I, too, like drinking in Ballard. Was just a little aggro over a Seattlite hating on the Hawks. Will shutup now though.

Feel like this is a 50/50 game, should be a fun one. Hopefully Wilson shows up or we lose this time.

There is one initial tidbit to consider in advance of a Seahawks-Patriots Super Bowl, which will be refereed by Bill Vinovich. (That's according to multiple reports, including one from ESPN rules analyst Jim Daopoulos.) Since Vinovich returned to the referee role in 2012 after recovering from heart problems, he has been assigned five Seahawks games. Seattle is 5-0 in those games, including three victories by at least 20 points.

There should be plenty on the bandwagon. Hope you didn't like the old jerseys though as none of their fans existed before 2012

Yeah and the Patriots represent the entirety of New England. But all they ever talk about or show in the media when talking about the Patriots is Boston. And the city of Boston takes credit for all their championships as being victories for Boston.

All it takes is one player. For example, Chandler Jones is the loving man and everyone on the Seahawks is a piece of poo poo and also Macklemore likes them.

No, he meant literally cut him. 52 year old Brady will be trying to take the field and they'll just sever his tendons with a machete.

He'll still play one down.

When it's time for Brady to retire Bill will rip his everlasting soul from Brady's still-beating heart and place it in the chest of Jimmy G, forming an immortal and impossibly handsome unholy monstrosity that will terrorize the NFL for millenia
