(5,989 posts)I'm a German expat. Hubby was in the Air Force and we met at a base in Germany. We got married in '84, got reassigned to McConnell AFB in Wichita, KS in 85. Both basically kids. 22 and 19. Hubby was a born and raised New Englander. Bostonian, to be exact.
My first introduction to American Football was Superbowl XX. Bears vs Patriots. The Pats were a long shot and it came true when they lost to the Bears and Refrigerator Perry 46-10. I was so mad I threw the tv remote against the wall, scaring the baby and the cats. (Hubby was working the overnight shift on base, so he couldn't watch. He might not have survived the heartache)
That was my start as a Pats fan. I fell in love with the team, the game, and never looked back. It was never a single player or coach for me. (I even hated Brady when he had the MAGA hat in his locker and when he went to the Bucs.)
As to Kraft; he does a lot of good in the community and since he got remarried, has managed to stay mostly clear of politics. He was a bit unmoored when his rock, Myra, passed away and made bad choices. But overall, he hasn't been any worse than the other billionaire owners of NFL teams. (Actually, he has been discriminated against within the league because he's Jewish, imo.)
