Me - a Patriots fan?

I guess I must really be a Bostonian now. Why? Because I grew up in New Jersey and always rooted for the Giants. They were my team – you know, LT, Phil Simms, Leonard Marshall, little Joe Morris – they were awesome and I was loyal – I stuck with them through the dark Ray Handley days and everything.

Once I moved to Boston, I kept my soft spot for the Giants, but I was able to justify liking the Pats because Bill Belichick had been the defensive coach for the Giants in the 80’s and through the 1991 Super Bowl.

But I was bummed on Sunday – how did that happen? How did I get to be so “Boston”?
