Maybe *that's* the difference between New York and Boston fans.
BTW, how 'bout those Knicks? ;)

Granted, some pats fans such as yourself have been more gracious than most. I think it's the sizeable number of arrogant self-superior braggarts out there that have ruined it for the rest, and is the reason why threads like this exist. Some pats fans talk as if they themselves are somehow superior to other people due to the accomplishments of their city's football team.
No one in their right mind would deny the pats are a formidable force in the league in the last 8 years, but it's just human nature to cheer for their misfortune in light of all the arrogant gloating that's gone on.
