Cheaters

I have never had any love for the New England Patriots.  First off, fans in New England/Boston can be insufferable.  Next, they achieved high levels of success by winning a few Super Bowls.  Succeeding is a sure way to draw some ire of opposing fans.  In winning, the Pats have become media darlings, especially from ESPN.  ESPN falls over themselves touting quarterback Tom Brady and coach Bill Belichick.  Throw in a couple of battles with my Pittsburgh Steelers, and my hatred begins to burn brightly.  Thanks to not winning a Super Bowl in the last few years, my hatred has been downgraded to "mild dislike".  Still do not wish them well, but I no longer hope for the worst.

However, after hearing that the New England Patriots got caught cheating for video taping the opponent's defensive signals.  My hatred is starting to rekindle.  The report states that this is at least the second time they have been caught.  Makes you wonder how much of their success has stemmed from underhanded methods.  In my book, the Pats cheated at everything.  They are not on the level and can never be trusted.  I bet they are photocopying an opponents' playbook as you read this.
