Patriots/Giants like every teen movie ever made

The Patriots are that ultra-popular, but monumentally mean, football captain/homecoming queen who, at the start of the movie, everyone loves, everyone praises, and everyone seems to want to be like.

In the background are the Giants, the hard working, serious minded guy/girl who, at the start of the movie, is considered average at best and is only popular in a small circle of other semi-outcasts.

As the movie progresses, things start to change. People start to notice how mean the cool/hot guy/girl really is, while the outcast gets a makeover and suddenly starts to rising in popularity.

The movie culminates in the big confrontation, where the cool/hot guy/girl finally gets his/her comeuppance, while the former outcast become the hero.

Everyone cheers.

We've seen it a hundred times, but it never gets old.

John Hughes must be a huge Giants fan.

Tis true....we love it when the truly good wholesome person triumphs over the popular, empty, shallow types. It is a good story line.

And the Patriots are cheaters.

Not to mention Belichick himself was off-sides. There was still time for 1 more play when he was over shaking Coughlin's hand. :x
