Not gonna write positive articles for the sake of staying positive.

I started using blogger to write back in 2019. Prior to that I had a page on Facebook that I would write blogs on. My orginal page was a mess and I got tired of trolls.

Since I started writing on blogger, I have been told on multiple occasions that I am too negative. That I should be more like other writers or media personalities and focus on the positive.

I am sorry, if the Patriots are having areas where players are performing poorly, I am not gonna write a piece and talk about how great the long snapper, punter, and gunners are. That's not me.

I got criticized in 2019 for calling out Brady and McDaniels. Same thing happened in 2020 when I called out Newton. I have gotten used to it. I have friends that are also content creators. They're called homers and one is even called Mchomer. 

For the most part, they try to spin a positive on everything and ignore the negative. It works for them and their audience loves it. However, that is not me. Sometimes I agree with the Patriots fan base, while a lot of the time I am seemingly at odds. 

I said Gronkowski was gonna get traded. I became a Stidham fan boy, while everyone hoped on the Newton bandwagon. I stayed on the Mac Jones train, while everyone had jumped to the Justin Fields-Trey Lance bandwagon. Hell, I even supported Steve Belichick for defensive coordinator while everyone said it had to be Mayo. Currently I believe Farnsworth could beat out Cardona and for my fellow Blue Jays fans, I like Vlad Jr but don't think he's playing up to the Hall of Fame levels he's being hyped to.

I am not always going to agree with my fanbase. I am not gonna tell everyone what they want to hear. I am going to do my best to call out all of the sports teams I like when I can, although football is the sport I am most knowledgeable about. I will do my best to also give praise when do. I appreciate those who stick bye me and to those who want me to change and become more team / fan friendly, it's not gonna happen.
