So I'm taking the very low road here in order to encourage more people to be Patriots' fans for the Super Bowl.

If you root for the Rams, you're rooting for the team that's owned by a guy that's literally driven a man to suicide before.

But what does that have to do with the men playing on the football field? Is that owner out on the field making pancake blocks? Lol. I mean I want the patriots to win but I can't tell if you're joking or not.

I'm having difficulty myself telling if this response is serious or not.

Owners are (for better or for worse, often worse) involved just as much with the team as much of the executive staff. Whether it's through hiring upper level staff like head coaches and GMs, deciding where the team should play, attempting to get the funding necessary to build a new stadium. The point isn't that an owner is out there actually playing on the field, but conversely, you don't have to be there out on the field in order to have a vested interest in a team winning.
