Wow... With all the new rules in the pro bowl why don't we just put flags on them and play pee wee?

I agree, nobody seemed to want to hit anyone. Still fun to watch some the best players in the league playing with each other though.

Regardless of what rag that author writes for, after all that's been reported and written, that particular "article" died right after the title.

Rules are rules though. And with a team tainted like the patriots the headlines will flow..

 

 

I wonder if the ref who is suppose to be keeping an eye on the balls gets in trouble, per rule book:

 

 

The Referee shall be the sole judge as to whether all balls offered for play comply with these specifications

What? You don't think he could deflate 11 balls in 90 seconds??? lol. I think the warren commission is investigating this too.... hello one bullet theory...  :dazed-7:

Seems to me, The Patriots scored more points in that game with properly inflated footballs, the Colts, well it just didn't matter what ball they used, could have been a soccer ball or a hockey puck for that matter...

it's not that it impacted this game but it is a rule that was broken, just a matter of who was involved.  But if it is found to be true and facilitated by the Cheatriots then it does bring into question other close games and that Indy is said to have brought this up to the league earlier in the season.  That leads me to two conclusions, the league brushed it under the rug and did nothing about it or the league did talk to them about their cheating and the did nothing in which case the penalty should be much stiffer than what people think.

 

Anyone else find it interesting that Goodell and the NFL sure is taking a long time to come up with a finding but in other cases it was only a matter of days before a decision and punishment was levied?

Yes, I agree, a rule break occurred somehow, apparently the spy gate and now de-flate gate, will also be attached to the New England Patriots legacy.. Then there's Hernandez..

I don't think the insinuation that spy gate was not valid is true.  they were heavily fined and lost a draft pick, that is not a witch hunt nor is it in some type of gray area of the rule book.  They cheated and Beicheat knew about it and was behind it, plain and simple.  So any legacy that has been created will most definitely have a cloud of cheating of it because, they were in fact, cheating.

 

Interesting that a guy like Barry Bonds, who i am not a fan of, i don't think has ever tested positive or admitted to taking PEDs is automatically labeled a villain yet the Cheatriots are labeled as winners and excuses made for their blatant disregard for football and the rules.

I believe you may have misunderstood my angle, it is exactly the aforementioned items that will be remembered, blended with superbowl victory's etc.. As a long time Peyton Manning fan.. ( since 96 ) a Colts fan under Peyton, & having no love for New England.. I still believe they are a very good team as of now...

You can't have a legacy if it is under the cloud of cheating.  And yes, i misunderstood your intent.  There are just too many of these problems with this team for me to think they are a legit team.  They won a few close games this season and all i can wonder is if they have been cheating all along which helped them to be a better team than they truly are

I am no Pats fan ... far from it but I believe that there is some degree of cheating across the entire NFL.  They just suck as keeping it under wraps.

Bill and Tom were both caught cheating on their wifes before, why wouldn't it be far fetched that they would cheat else ware beyond the people they were suppose to care for...

and playing dirty, Suh's recent stepping comes to mind or the more popular saints bonus' for taking out key players

I''l take a guy who gets lost in the moment of play stomping on a guy before i take someone who is calculating and trying to get away with something to give them an advantage.  I doubt Suh said to himself if he gets the chance he is gonna boot stomp a player where to deflate the balls or tape practice or whatever takes a calculated effort and coordination of others who need to be involved to make it work.

 

kind of like the difference between manslaughter and 1st degree murder lol
