Are You Gonna Go My Way?
I don't get it. At all. It's kind of a small horse, I mean what am I missing? Am I crazy?

Elway is still among the most overrated athletes of all time. You spelled "Marino" wrong.

Elway had 1 season of 20 TD passes in 10 years under the conservative and offensively-lacking-support around him Dan Reeves. His last 6 years post-Reeves: 20+ TD's 5 times (he missed 2 games in 1994 when he had 16 on a team that started 0-5). I don't think that is a coincidence. And keep in mind Elway played in an era unlike today where it was NOT easy to light it up as a QB. Defenses dictated more compared to nowadays. The pass-friendly rules of 2004 were not even in consideration back in Elway's day. Elway also threw more passes during that time than anybody not named Dan Marino. He also missed almost half of them and got picked off or fumbled more than anybody not named Randall Cunningham

OK, I gave the Patriots their due, but now I'm about to unleash a rant: I've given you a ton of grief over the years. Some deserved, some maybe a little harsh. But I'm going to be 100% sincere here: Your time is coming. Nothing lasts forever, whether it be glory, or obscurity. Take it from someone who saw the Sox and Patriots as jokes throughout his childhood. As someone who saw the Bruins and Celtics as shells of what they used to be. The euphoria of seeing your team win it all is awesome. You're going to get there. And someday, soon, it'll be me watching the Pats miss the playoffs, going 6-10 recalling the "glory days" of Brady and Belichick. That said, I'm not going to feel bad for enjoying this ridiculous run that the Patriots, and Boston Sports as a whole, have been on since 2001. Don't mock the guy. That's cruel.
Do you really think that is gonna come true? Your statement comes off as belittling or mocking more than encouraging, in my opinion.

Elway is still among the most overrated athletes of all time. You spelled "Marino" wrong. Joe Namath is the most overrated quarterback of all time. He threw way more interceptions than touchdowns and for his career he completed about half his passes and only made the playoffs twice.
