TEAMS: New England Patriots, Kansas City Chiefs
Former New England Patriots coach and new Hall of Famer Bill Parcells knows a thing or two about his former team. He especially knows how good they are. So, of course it was Dan Shaughnessy who brought up some of the criticism that the Pats have been getting for supposedly becoming a 'finesse team'. To this Parcells' immediately and powerfully responded "NO!" He then continued:
“Who says that? They ran the ball good this year,” Parcells said. “I don’t know what happened in the playoffs, but here’s what I say to you guys in New England: You guys are spoiled. Really, you are. You’ve got to remember how the other half lives. You forgot. I was there for it, so I know. Just remember, you could be like some of these other franchises that you see. You got a couple of ’em in your division.’’
Yup, you read that right. The thing is though, he's 100% correct. New England Patriots fans are as spoiled as they come and if you don't think so, then you have no idea ...
