Rather be the underdog

Ten to fifteen years ago it was probably an advantage to be the favorite.
With all the media blowing hot air hype around these days, I believe it is an advantage to be the underdog.
Possibly a big advantage--much less pressure.
Look around the NFL and even colleg ball.
Thoughts???

To an extent it does. It really depends ont he personailty of your team I think. Personally I love the underdog role. I always loved playing on the road during football going into a hostile enviroment and shutting them up I loved it

I'd say we are back to being the underdog again after the current ruling

No, we still better beat them regardless I mean compared to the Bears and the Packers. I know the media who will bring it up are clowns but I'll still have to hear it.
