Jim Irsay Changes 'GOAT' Criteria to Troll the Patriots on Twitter

There's being jealous, and then there's this.

Jim Irsay, owner of the Indianapolis Colts and longtime New England Patriots hater, tried to take some of the shine away from the Patriots now that they have just won their sixth Super Bowl.

After defeating the Los Angeles Rams13-3 in the big game, NFL fans and experts seemingly both agreed that the Tom Brady-Bill Belichick Patriots dynasty is the G.O.A.T. of all the teams in the history of football.

Irsay (because why not?) wouldn't stand for all of this Patriots praising, saying only a team that can three-peat can be considered the greatest team of all time (coincidentally the Patriots have only won the Super Bowl two times in a row).

The G.O.A.T. Standard for NFL Teams is simple and I’ve discussed the seemingly impossible goal with many in NFL circles over the last half of Century- 3 World Championships in a row- NO ONE’S DONE IT! Colt’s Fans Dream Boldly

​​Following this tweet, commenters let Irsay know that the Green Bay Packers actually won three world championships in a row, with two of them coming pre-Super Bowl era. 

To the surprise of no one, Irsay then clarified that his G.O.A.T. NFL team has to specifically win three straight championships in the Super Bowl era.

Hating the Patriots isn't anything new, but to the level in which Irsay is trying to defame the team is almost unprecedented.
