People don't hate the Pats "for having one of the best coaching/QB combos of all time". That would be a reason to *like* a team. People don't hate them "for no reason" either - and how dumb do you have to be to say that and STILL attempt to list a few actual reasons?
Most people don't hate the Pats themselves so much as they hate Pats FANS for being so extremely stupid and obnoxious. And as you've so kindly helped demonstrate, it really is as perfectly valid and legitimate a reason as any.
Many forums have an animated smiley repeatedly bashing its head into a brick wall. It gets a similar message across and there have been countless instances on HBT where I've really wished that this forum had it, to the extent where I've even added it to a post as an external image a few times.NordeastBrewer77 said::facepalm: <--- they really need an emoticon for that
Definitely the emoticon which HBT lacks that I would use the most, followed somewhat closely by the animated puking smiley. If even just those two were added, I'd rarely be for want of another emoticon.
