Dear Non-New England Patriots Fans; Really?

Image result for nfl ref bias for patriots memes
Really?

I find it amusing when the fans of other teams
Think there's a conspiracy because New England creams
Almost every football franchise that we have to play.
"NFL has rigged the game," the latest losers say.

Is there really anybody who believes Goodell
Doesn't think New England's why his ratings went to hell?
It's not 'cause the players took a stand and took a knee,
Not because the fans are worried about CTE.

Ratings fell because New England almost always wins;
Patriots are favored before training camp begins.
When a team's as dominant as we are it's no fun
For the fans whose teams are not on this amazing run.

If we don't get penalized as much as others do
Could it be because we are more disciplined than you?
I'd think - were there bias from officiating crews -
They, like you and Roger, would prefer to see us lose.

Judge Berman for President


Image result for new england patriots memes 2017

Fans can just ignore what all the haters have to say,
Patriots were vindicated...  Brady gets to play.
Judge has ruled the NFL's behavior wasn't fair,
Siding with New England and Tom Brady's case. So there!

His impartial ruling found that four games were too much
For some balls that might be slightly softer to the touch.
'though the NFL's appealed, appeals can take awhile;
Could be years before the case would even come to trial.

I hope Brady sues their ass for what they've put him through,
Making accusations as they robbed him of his due
Of the joy he should have felt, with all his heart and soul,
At New England's victory in last year's Super Bowl.

Damage Done

I still can't believe a little missing PSI
From a ball results in a suspension for a guy
That exceeds the one he'd get for beating up his wife,
Tarnishing a legacy he's worked for all his life.

Brady says he's innocent.  There's not a shred of proof
This was a conspiracy and not a harmless goof.
Pressure in the football didn't impact Brady's play;
NFL replaced the balls and he won anyway.

I'm glad Tom is fighting back but fear that it's too late...
Thanks to the Commissioner, the haters gonna hate.
Brady's reputation - even though it isn't fair -
Has been damaged by the NFL, beyond repair.

FIFA Elections

Image result for soccer corruption memes

I thought things were bad under Commissioner Goodell
(Not too happy with the way he leads the NFL)
But, another football league has got it even worse
Forcing some perspective on these grievances I nurse.

With Goodell it's just New England that is getting screwed.
FIFA leaders, with the massive fortunes they've accrued
Through manipulation, bribes, and voting purchase schemes
For the last 2 decades, screwed a myriad of teams.

Now the leader under whom corruption seemed to thrive
Faces re-election; it's predicted he'll survive.
(Makes you wonder what it is Sepp Blatter has to pay
To remain in power...)  Give me Roger any day.

Update

Blatter has been re-elected FIFA President;
Thus, a chance to vote against corruption came and went.
Africa and Asia felt that Sepp's their kinda guy...
(Pity future players at the World Cup in Dubai.)

The New England Patriots - Just Pay The Man

 Rob Gronkowski SI Cover

My New England Patriots played Wednesday - didn't win.
Refs called a receiver out when he was clearly in.
Lost it to World Champions; The New York football Giants.
*(Made a bet with Mr. S. and, therefore, in compliance

With the terms on which we shook, I have to call them that.
If I'd won he had to throw away his Yankees hat.)
Belichick cares more about deciding who to cut.

Doesn't give the game away before the season starts.
'til then all his players are so many moving parts.
Once it counts, this football master plays the game like chess.
I am very confident he'll win a lot, unless...

There is really something to the S.I. cover curse.
Football is so dangerous and bad calls make it worse.
Plus, it isn't only Gronk; there's Madden's cover too.
Time to tell Commissioner Goodell what he should do;

Pity the replacement refs; their jobs can't be much fun.
Sure, it was amusing - once - but now pre-season's done.
Now the games begin to count. Bring back real referees.
Not as if they've asked for much.  Just pay them...  Pretty please?
