11. Bullshit...
I've been a Pats fan since Jim Plunkett was QB, still a fan when pre-Nicole OJ used to run for 200 yards against them with the Bills...

12. Just because you were, doesn't mean that it hasn't happened
10 years ago people in the area usually didn't give a shit about the Patriots.

4. Where are the Chargers?
If you have the Bears and Bengals, then where are the San Diego Chargers?
12-4 last season!

9. I was like that about my Oilers.
Until that rat bastard Bud Adams moved them to Tennessee.

I love loyal fans...Cardinals baseball, Spurs basketball, I'm all about the loyalty, but I'm an NFL Ronin.

15. Go with the Patriots...
I root for them after the Cowboys and it'll just make our game watching experiences much better if we're rooting for the same team.

17. i'm torn
i take it you have a poor rooting record (ie: your team Loses) so i don't want you to root for the pats, but they pats are the pats and every fan deserves a team as good.

18. I need to find a football team to follow after baseball season ends!
Problem is, it's kind of hard to do that on the west coast since the two football teams in Cali suck.

43. 2 CA teams?
You should know by now that ->NORTHERN<- Californians don't recognize anything south of Santa Barbara. Hope the Chargers win it all and just rub their noses in it.

If the B rowns are in the playoffs I'll root for them too.

47. I can't believe you would insult the Packers by including the bears
in the same list of possibilities.

They are diametrically opposed, they simply cannot exist on the same poll.
