a football team based in MA, who has beaten numerous odds, in 85 and 96 by making it to the super bowl, and from 2001-2004 winning 3 super bowls, 21 consecutive games, and 10 consecutive post-season games. they have broken other records as well, but that's another topic. Many of the fans were behind the Pats when they had a 4 win season, so you better believe they're eccstatic now that they're winning
people don't like the patriots because they're winning, and have pretty much (though i hate to admit it) become the new york yankees of football. it's 'cool' to hate the pats, and accuse them of everything the media has accused them of, even though they did something that every other team is still doing (including the whiney-ass jets).
In the 07-08 season the patriots did what only two other teams have ever done, gone undefeated in the regular season (Bears twice in the 60's, the dolphins in 78), but they lost the super bowl to the luckiest team since the 01-02 Pats (oh yeah, i compared you guys to the pats), the new york giants, whom i respect, and believe Eli Manning will be twice the QB his brother is.

Get the New England Patriots mug.--New England--
New England is an old grouping of states in the northeastern region of the U.S. It has traditionally consisted of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. On rare occasions, New York, and even parts of New Jersey have been considered New England (Connecticut Puritans founded many towns in these states).
--Massachusetts Does NOT Have Friends--
New England is NOT "Massachusetts and friends." Most of the other New England states want nothing to do with those snobby, arrogant Massholes and their sucky driving habits. Go clog up your own retail outlets, seriously. Also, Boston's influence is very small and barely extends into extreme southeast New Hampshire--the rest of these five states has nothing to do with it at all: Boston tends to overstate its importance.
--The Connecticut Debate--
It is debatable whether or not Connecticut really belongs in New England--the western and southern parts of that state are pretty much indistinguishable from New York. On the shoreline of southern Connecticut, you can see the skyline of Manhattan on the horizon--tons of people work there and go there on the weekends for shopping and baseball games. Connecticut is NOT "down" with Massachusetts, nor will it ever be. So, I guess it's not REALLY New England, but it sort of looks like it in places. Connecticut seems more like a Mid-Atlantic state with its ties to New York and northern New Jersey.

Get the New England mug.Related Words
England is a fantastic country that is hated by most other countries in the world.
However, the English don't give a shit about this due to hundreds of years of getting used to this.
Out of the United Kingdom (lol):
The Welsh hate us the most but they are cunts anyway so it doesn't count.
The Scottish also hate us but they are all so pissed can't remember why.
Our other close neighbours;
The Irish are so thick they forget to hate us at times but atleast they are fun.
So here we live as a happy little family.
WELL GO FUCK YOURSELVES THE ENGLISH ARE GREAT AND YOU LOT ARE ALL CUNTS.

Get the England mug.Nice country with mostly good people. Some though claim Americans to be fat ignorant turds, yet when you search England mostly all you see is praise because most people from the United States appreciate England and recognize it is a good country.
Yet when you search United States all you hear is bad things and idiotic stereotypes. Some English people can't except that they are no long the BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD and have to share the spotlight with the United States. They always speak of the atrocities committed by America yet they seem to forget that for a good portion of history especially during 19th century imperialism they were some of the most evil pricks in the world.
Every country has its flaws yet British seem to love ranting and raving about "stupid American's," yet everywhere you look in England there is American influence and some English cannot accept that United States and Britain rely on each other more than some English people would like to admit. It's sad that these few people don't realize that they are no better than the "fat, evangelical, gun slinging, idiotic Americans." And this does not apply to all British people because half of my family currently lives in London, but just like here in the hated United States there are idiotic fools who don't know their facts and tarnish their country's reputation.

Get the England mug.A rarely exercised rule in football where it doesn't matter if a player is committing common assault on the goalkeeper (which is known in the rulebook as a "foul"), the headed goal is legitimate because an England player scored from it - because, as we all know, England deserve to win every match they'r ein because they'r ebetter than everyone. Any referee that doesn't know this is obviously a complete idiot that cannot do his job properly, and therefore deserving of death threats.
