From what I understand, aren't the people sitting in the lower level of Gillette Stadium the kind of fans who yell at other Patriots fans for standing up and making too much noise?

In before the "B, b, but Santa was drunk!"

Manning = classy

Pats* = not so much

*cheated

The Pats D missed him so much, they gave up 350 yards and two touchdowns to Dan Orlovsky just for old times' sake.

They did however boo Adam Vinatieri....

moistD: They did however boo Adam Vinatieri....

There's no greater crime than for a player to accept more money to play for a rival of a New England team.

OtherLittleGuy: xanadian: Stay classy, New England. No, seriously!

Almost 40 years ago, the crowd at Schaefer was so out of hand for a Monday Night Football game (one fan unrinated on a EMT helping someone who had a heart attack), the NFL "banned" the Pats from hosting one for years.

So, yeah, stay classy.

Peyton for MVP

Eagle fans have passed the gene on.

"As Manning was in the middle of his remarks, he was interrupted by quarterback Tom Brady, who was leaving the game with his wife.

Brady and Manning shared an embrace, then took the next few minutes to catch up."

Damn. That's cool.

Give the colts 1 more quarter and they would have beaten the Pats.

I was at the game yesterday.

Vinateri booing was few and far between. Seemed like friendly jeering more than anything. I have heard the Pats crowd is pretty weak but I thought they were loud considering the opponent and the way the game went.

/first time at Gillette
//People were constantly looking up into Kraft's box which I thought was weird.

True story. This happens more than you would like. New England has a lot of pink hats. It is rather sad.

At Sox/Celtics/Bruins games more so. Gillette is still more or less a place for the hardcore, as are most cold weather outdoor stadiums once the weather turns.

scottydoesntknow: Manning will always be one of my favorite NFL players. Not only is he one of the best QBs in the history of the league, he's also a stand-up guy and perfect media whore. His commercials (and United Way bit) are some of the best.

He is one of the most overrated QBs in the history of the league. He's a regular season statistical juggernaut, but come playoffs, he chokes.

2001, Colts lose to dolphins 23-17 for wildcard spot
2002 - Colts lose to the jets 41-0 in the playoffs
2004, Colts lose 24-14 to the patriots in the playoffs
2005, Colts lose to pats 20-3 in the playoffs
2006 Colts lose to Steelers 21-18 in the playoffs
2007 - Colts finally show up and win Super Bowl
2008 - Colts lose at HOME to the 8-8 Chargers at home in the playoffs
2009 - Colts lose to the Saints by throwing a pick-6 in the Super bowl.

Arguably the greatest to ever play the game.

Patriots fans by and large respect Peyton Manning, they admire his skill and value the rivalry.

Winning a few championships has transformed the region. I can say there are a few douchebags out there, but most Patriots fans are pretty classy. They treat opponents pretty well. It is when an opposing player starts to talk a buncha crap that the Patriots fans get riled up. Like Ladanian Tomlinson running his mouth in San Diego, or I think when was it Sugg in Baltimore started talking smack...

But when the Jets do it, it becomes a part of the fun. Pats fans probably hate Mangini the most.

I listened to Manning's interview yesterday and I thought Peyton came across very classy. I wish him a speedy recovery, but I think he should retire from playing football. He has those little kids to raise and really one big hit and this guy could be paralyzed or killed. It is a serious neck injury. Football is a dangerous enough sport.

40 years ago is relevant how, exactly? If a guy did that 40 years ago, he's probably not around anymore.

do you live in MA? Because WEEI and 98.5 the sports hub have tons of douche bags that call in hating Peyton Manning. And every homer I have met here despises Manning and want nothing to do with him.

Picking on the Colts this year is like kicking a crippled kid. See if they'd shower Peyton with kisses if he was on the field with home field in the playoffs at stake.

Oh. I guess we should cheer for our other starting QB. Oh wait. There isn't another starting QB. So we're bad people because we root for our only football team. Thanks for clearing that up. Admiral Douche.

The people who call in to WEEI are not broadly representative of the region's sports fans, they are representative of people who call into radio stations.

haha I know, just saying. The hardcore pats fans, the obnoxious ones and the ones you meet on the street (homers) do not like Peyton.

Hell, the other day I met someone who hated Tim Duncan just because the Celtics suck for Duncan Campaign didn't work.

As a Masshole that lives up in the Merrimack Valley, I can advise that my experience is the total opposite - Manning is 'hated' when he's playing well and playing the Pats, but the general consensus at the bars that I watch the games at is that he's too good to really hate. The true hatred is saved for the Rex Ryans, Brett Favres, Terrell Suggs' of the league.

/agrees about the mouth-breathers that call into sports radio, though. Their idiocy actually makes me like the local teams less.

I'll like him when his career is over. I am incapable of liking a player that's on a rival team while they're still active.

I like the rivalry. I used to HATEthe Jets. Now i do not hate them at all. They man up and play the Pats tough. Rex Ryan for all his bravado and chatter usually backs it up, and he seems to be good humored. Hard to hat eon someone who is good-humored. Peyton manning is good humored. I hate the fact that manning can kick our ass regularly. But he has my respect on the field.

Drew Brees, Aaron Rogers, I respect those guys. Ben Roethlisberger? I hate his guts.

Edsel:

At Sox/Celtics/Bruins games more so. Gillette is still more or less a place for the hardcore, as are most cold weather outdoor stadiums once the weather turns.

I hope thats a joke.

Gillette is quiet as a tomb and its a disgrace.

Have you been to a Bruins game?
