This was the most boring super bowl I've seen in 15 years. However, I give credit to the kid Brady, congratulations, but I hate the Patriots. RAIDER NATION here and with Norv next season, you'd better watch out.

Last years was pretty pathetic
How anyone could find last night's game boring is beyond me.
Yeah, exactly. Last years score was IIRC 49 - 21. Complete domination. This game was just awesome. Did anyone know it was only the second time where both quarterbacks passed for over 300 yards? The other was Dan Marino and Joe Montana. This one will go down in history as one of the best.

Here is the Parade Route for all of us that are going to welcome home our Super Bowl Champs.

At least New England exists. There is no such place as "Carolina". There's a North Carolina and a South Carolina but I have yet to see just plain old Carolina on a map.
I'm not a fan of either team, I'm just glad that sorry excuse for an NFC Champion didn't win it all.

BWAHAHAHAHA! "The Panthers are a great franchise" BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! ROFLES!
Thanks for the laugh 🙂
BTW, I don't hate the Panthers because they're named after a non-existant place, I hate them because they're not my team.

Nothing wrong with coining new terms, unless you are frozen in the past. "Carolina Panthers" is just clever marketing to appeal to both North and South Carolinians. Besides, "North Carolina Panthers" doesn't exactly roll off the tongue, and Charlotte itself is probably not big enough to support an NFL franchise.
(Hmm--Maybe North and South Carolina should merge . . . )
Question for Pat's fans at Boston.com:
Would you give up both Patriots Super Bowl championships in exchange for one Red Sox World Series victory?
Yes. I've been waiting so long for the Sox to win the Series that I'd do anything to see them triumph.
No way. I want the Sox to win as much as anyone, but the Patriots' championships are priceless.

Just pulled out a map of the US and have yet to see New England on it, which state is it beside?
The Patriots arrived in 1959, Got massacred in the title game in 1963 by 41 points.
Moved to Foxboro in 1970.
In 1985 they won the AFC Championship! Then got destroyed by the Bears 46-10.
They won the AFC Championship again in 1996, but were soundly defeated 35-21 in the Super Bowl
They squeaked by the Rams and Panthers to win the SuperBowl in 2002 and 2004
The Panthers were founded in 1993, played their first game in 1995(they won, only team in NFL history to win their inaugural game)
Won a division title their second year and beat the defending Superbowl champions in their first playoff game.
NFC Conference Champs in 2004, barely lost to a team riding a 14 game winning streak.
Summary:
It took New England 26 years to win a Conference Championship in a much smaller league.
It took them 43 years to be able to put up a decent team and actually compete and win in the SuperBowl
The Panthers came within a play or two of winning the SuperBowl in less than 10 years of them playing football.
They will beat you next year....twice, that is if you can make it back to the Super Bowl.

I'll get right on that. Just as soon as you change yours to asshat 😉
Thanks. Once you give me a reason to change my name, Id do it. I don't call teams who get to the superbowl against incredible odds a "sorry excuse" for a team.
They were obviously better than the rest of the NFC, dipsh!t.

That's like comparing the Florida Marlins to the Chicaco Cubs of 1892. Makes no sense whatsoever. Two totally different era's, no teams back when the Patriots started where forced to leave players unrestricted, so they can be claimed by the 'expansion' teams, and then there's the salary issues. Again, nice try, but your so-called comparision is just ignorance at it's finest.
I was going to say the same thing, Sports were completely different, Free agency was not there. Things were much more difficult which is why you saw teams become dynasties and today you don't have that. If the pats can win next year, I think they would be the closest thing to a dynasty in years. I mean they will have 2 first round picks and 2 nd round picks plus colvin coming back from his injury next year, they have a chance of being even better than they were this year.
