If not, it's not the same. Yankees are hated because of their success and unlimited funds. Pats are "hated" because they fucking cheat.

However, we admitted to it and took the punishment like adults.

But so did a lot of teams, right? (Doesn't make it acceptable, only too common for the Spankmes to be singled out.) So far only the Pats have been found to cheat on the level they have done.

I have a tough time feeling sorry for either Patriots or Yankees fans but not for any of the reasons listed lately. Cry the rest of us a river.
