The Patriots Ruin The Fun in Football

A great team, but just stop already.

The Patriots Ruin The Fun in Football

(WARNING: I am an Eagles fan, and this will probably sound biased).

Dear Friends,

Football has begun and things are already going wrong. Players are getting injured left and right, teams are losing by 43 points or more, and the Dolphins just suck. There's nothing really shocking about that last statement, but can we just take a moment of silence for this team? RIP to Miami man.

Anyways, I would like to talk about the Patriots today because who doesn't love the Patriots? Oh, wait.

Literally any fan of any other NFL team.

Don't get me wrong, the Patriots are a talented team. Tom Brady is an overly talented quarterback, the offense is insane, and all that crap. They won 6 Super Bowls, tying up with the Pittsburgh Steelers for most Super Bowl wins.

Over the past couple of years, there has been this formation of hatred toward the New England Patriots. There was the whole Deflate-Gate issue a few years back. There was the issue with Robert Kraft (still lol). There was the issue with them supposedly cheating with the refs of the game. There's the thing where they just keep going to the Super Bowl every damn year. There's ALSO this thing where they picked up AB who is accused of raping a woman and was nowhere to be found after his debut against the Dolphins (RIP) in week 2.

Things are just super fishy when it comes to this team.

Do they cheat? I don't know. Are they annoying to watch for anyone that isn't a Patriots fan? Yes. Are they actually a good team? Absolutely.

Listen, I am an Eagles fan as stated in the warning above. I hate the Patriots. I hate watching them and I hate seeing anything Patriots related. They annoy the crap out of me. It was the best feeling in the WORLD when we beat them in the Super-Bowl 2 years ago. Though I hate the Patriots with all my might, I cannot just ignore the fact that they are indeed a talented team. I hate saying that, but it is true. THERE ARE STILL TIMES WHERE THEY DEFINITELY CHEAT OR SOMETHING BECAUSE BILL BELICHICK IS SKETCHY.

Woo, that felt good to say.

I have mixed feelings about this team. I probably shouldn't be writing this article, but what can ya do?

Overall though, this team just sucks the fun out of football for every other NFL fan that hates them. They killed the Dolphins in Week 2 and they put the Steelers to shame in Week 1. They play the Jets in Week 3 and I have a feeling they'll win that too. It's safe to say that probably every football fan who isn't a fan of the Patriots, hates watching them and hates hearing about them winning all the time. They suck the fun out of football. That's just my opinion though.

To all you Patriots fans out there, I am sure you are great people, but a lot of people will probably trash talk you because of who your favorite team is. Don't say that you have 6 Super Bowls or that you have the goat at QB because no one wants to hear that crap. Trust me.

Well, I hope you all enjoyed this article. Make sure to check out my other previous articles, and I will see you all next time with a new topic of discussion. GO BIRDS!

Your Friend,

Al

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
