i generally like most of everything espn does, but the way they turn on their darling teams is just ridiculous. they constantly anoint teams and then back-peddle when their teams loose. this is the latest date they have ditched on the new england patriots.

The Patriots’ season is history, but not historic. They didn’t
choke, but they definitely suffered from a lack of oxygen. Pinching the
air tube shut was a New York Giants
team with just enough nerve, just enough composure to leave this Jiffy
Pop-looking stadium with a 17-14 win and the Vince Lombardi Trophy.

Anybody
who tells you this was the greatest Super Bowl upset of all time has it
wrong. But it was the greatest missed opportunity in NFL history.

"We conquered the regular season," said Patriots cornerback Asante Samuel. "We conquered the playoffs. What does it mean if you don’t win the Super Bowl? It doesn’t mean anything."

last year it was ohio state, before that it was (and kinda still is) usc. this year their girlfriend was the patriots and in typical jock form they couldn’t stand by their girl when they had a bad hair day. we all know that is just bad form jocks.
