As much as I fucking hate the Pats I hate the Jags even more so I was glad to see them cry. Looks like I might have to root for the Eagles in the SB.

That hit on gronk, what do they expect people to do? He led with his shoulder. Is he just supposed to let the guy catch the ball, then it's ok to hit gronk? Its like, ok gronk turn around so I can hit you now so you won't be defenseless lol. I'm glad he's ok, but it couldn't have happened to a better asshat.

It would just be nice if like one other member of this forum liked the Pats so I found actually post in this thread... Or even read it sans hate.

Consider it jealousy lol. In sports people hate greatness after awhile. The pats were a good story when they sucked for years and years and finally strated winning. Too much of something and people get sick of it. Kind of like alabama football the last 5 years

Yeah, but with Alabama, we keep losing the Iron Bowl. I realize that isn't a big deal to folks outside of Alabama, but even winning an SEC or national championship, we still lose to Auburn's freaky weird luck! Also...our special teams.

As for the Pats, I root for Atlanta. "The wrong side of history" is something you hear a lot in the South. It applies to sports too.

Why do you hate the Jags? I mean, normally I’d just assume that you were a fan of another team in the division, but they’ve been so bad for so long that i feel like there can’t possibly be a heated rivalry.

Then again, as a Broncos fan I hated the Raiders even while they stunk for over a decade.

Interact with the Jags fans someday. As just a window of Jags fandom. https://www.duvalpride.com/showthread.php?tid=26797
I can't speak for all NFL teams fans but I been part of several Titans forums and when we lost the blame went on a player or coaching staff or just acknowledge we lost to a better team. The Jags fans go from we are better than anyone to we lost because the NFL is rigged. They are still angry about 1999 and despite Titans giving them the only 3 losses they had that season, they still talk about it weekly how they were the better team and think the Titans or in their terms "tacks" cheated them. Even tho you look at who they played in 99 was a fluff schedule. They look at 1999 as the white whale. As a Titans fan, most of us have gotten over the SB34 loss and have no ill will towards the Rams. They are so obsessed with the Titans and it's not just this forum. Oh, and they cheered when Mariota broke his leg and bragged about it...until we beat them both times this year.
