I guess I can add this Burns-Edelman encounter to the long list of things that makes me hate the Patriots.

1. Brady whining about being disrespected, in 2005. This started it for me.
2. Brady dumps his pregnant girlfriend, Bridget Moynahan.
3. Spygate, of course...and the fact that Goodell destroyed everything behind closed doors. Goodell told the team he didn't want to ever have to deal with them skirting rules ever again (see #11-#14)
4. Brady talking smack to Anthony Smith.
5. Brady whining to refs about getting hit too hard (a regular occurrence)
6. Team got caught using IR players in practice (against NFL rules)
7. Brady pressed charges against a homeless man who stole pots (for plants) from his doorstep. (Brady has enough money to simply replace thjem, for God's sake.)
8. The weird substitution play used against the Ravens that required a rules change.
9. Ernie Adams (look him up...fishy stuff going on here)
10. Pats lineman Nick Kaczur got busted for felony possession of oxycontin. Nothing (and I mean, NOTHING) happened to him. No punishment at all from Goodell.
11. Deflategate . Part 1: A Pats equipment manager went into a restroom with the footballs, caught on video, which is totally against league protocol. This was the smoking gun, which got lost in the focus on Brady. (See #3: Goodell told them in 2007 not to get caught doing stupid stuff. They did)
12. Brady's role in deflategate, destroying is his phone. (He deserved suspension, due to Goodell's warning in 2007)
13. The Pats presenting an explanation that "deflater" means a guy who is losing weight. (What an arrogant bunch of a-holes, telling the public this crap with an expectation that we'll believe it.)
14. The court cases. My God.
14. Aaron Hernandez.
15. The constant media love that Brady gets, with no recognition whatsoever, that man has played his entire career with a genius head coach, behind an o-line that regularly gives him a perfect pocket, wide open receivers, receivers who actually catch, receivers who run after the catch, and a team that generally doesn't fumble the ball. (Thank God Max Kellerman called this out last week: There's nothing Brady does that Rodgers, Brees, Ryan, etc. can't do in that offense.)
16. Brady caught on the plane with "the Affleck nanny" (who was wearing his SB rings). This was an enormous WTF?!?! moment that got little play in the press. Brady is an a-hole.

Oh, and then there's...
17. The tuck. It was a fumble and everyone knows it.
18. Marlon McCree's interception and fumble in 2006 playoff game.
19. The inexplicable Justin Tucker missed PAT.
20. The Seahawks blowing a goalline possession to hand yet another SB to the Pats.

The two that bug me to this day that arent on your list are how when momentum seems to be going against them typically on defense a player will go down with an injury and be laying on the field necessitating aT least a five minute break with a tv commercial break without the Pat being charged a timeout. The player finally leaves the field and sits out the required play before returning to the game, breaking the building momentum and allowing the coaching staff to rally the troops and make adjustments. See AFCCG this year, 04 and others.

The other one is after 9-11 with country hurting and afraid it is just too convenient for the PATRIOTS to come from no where and win the Superbowl.

Yes, and I am reminded of another:

Amendola not going through concussion protocol at all in the Super Bowl.

My mistake. I thought the title of this thread was, "F... you Julian Edelman"

I would love to see Edelmen get lit up just once. He's lucky he didn't play in the 80s or 90s.

Edelmen is a coachable, athletic achiever. He is a product of all of that and coaching. If he were to play in the 80's or 90's he would adjust. That guy is an athlete, and would achieve in any decade he plays in. He would excel in any sport he chose to play.

The bump and run in those days? I don't think he gets the clean release he is allowed in today's NFL.
