  1. Not a big fan of the banner. Reminds me of one thing... Super Bowl champs or no banner at all.

  1. It don't mean a thing unless you get a ring, another fan in favor of removing the banner

  1. That's the lamest crap ever... come on Kraft, you really don't need to bring up terrible memories like that...

  1. Pathetic. 2nd rate banner. That would be like putting up a banner for an attendence record. Take it down!

  1. I like the banner, it brings up the great memories of the season. And the ending.

  1. Wow! They went undefeated in the regular season? That's cool. So what happened in the playoffs? Is there another banner going up next to it tomorrow? Gosh!

  1. Will a "2-1" Playoff record banner follow? That one just sort of begs the question.. "And????"

    *shakes head*
