Default Questions for Pats fans

I promise, I don't mean this in a sarcastic way, but is it fun?

Is it fun watching your team steamroll the opposition?
Wouldn't you prefer to watch some close games?
Was watching the first good Pats team more fun than this?

I ask because I am a fan of teams that have had varying degrees of success (Leafs, Packers, Raptors and Jays). The Packers and Jays have won championships, but it would be a stretch to say that they were dominant and just pwned everyone they played.

I'm thinking it may not be fun this Sunday.

Watching your team destroy another one is fun for you but boring for other people.

It's fun. I'm laughing my ass off every time Brady scores a td. But these games aren't gonna go down as classics. I'm not gonna look back and think "man, that was an awesome game", like I do with the 2001 post season games.

Anyone who wants their team to play in close games is a masochist.

To correct you, Rhino, the Packers did dominate everyone in 1996 (aside from the 3 losses). In their 13 wins, their average margin of victory was 21+, which I think I heard (can't find the stats to back it up) was the largest average margin of victory in NFL history. Their average margin of victory in the playoffs was 17+.

I'm a Packers fan and I enjoyed every second.

I love watching the Pats (used to hate them, I'm an Eagles fan) but now that Brady is 2 of my 3 FF teams I just pray they put his game on nationally.
