Football Pats Cheating Comfirmed - Page 15

PizzaDoughz · 01-20-2015, 10:38 PM

According to the report, the league sources say the NFL determined 11 of the 12 footballs used by the Patriots were under-inflated by two pounds per square inch each. Per NFL rules, footballs are required to be inflated between 12.5 and 13.5 PSI and weigh between 14 and 15 ounces.

An under inflated ball weighs a little less. It would be "softer" and may be easier for the Tom to throw and easier for a receiver to grip/catch.

At this level, the do different things on kicking balls versus offense.

Any cheating by the Pats, besides being par for the course is a big deal.

NE should lose a significant draft pick in my opinion.

Huh:

The next day, Belichick issued a statement in which he apologized for what he called a "mistake" in his interpretation of the rules. However, he denied ever using videotape to gain an advantage while a game was underway, which Goodell also acknowledged

1 or 2 balls? No big deal.
11 out of 12 in the AFC Championship game? Blatant ****ing cheating. **** that entire organization.

Exactly. It's why I hadn't said a word about this until today.

I can't embed from my tablet but this is hilarious. And probably a Q.

If they can show that he knew about it, like SpyGate, I agree. And a fine and loss of draft picks.

Should be a year. They set that precedent with the Saints. Personally, I'd go harder than that. Because of their history I'd ban Belichick for life. 3 years of no draft picks and a 50 million dollar fine. They're tarnishing the league's reputation quite a bit at this point. That would also ensure this shit will never happen again.

And to be clear, I'm no Pats hater. Far from it. I openly admired the ineligible receiver plays against the Ravens.

Whatever the punishment, it has to go beyond losing a 7th round pick. Otherwise there is no incentive to quit cheating.

All of that being based on them finding proof which is fairly unlikely.

The "punishment" is going to be that final push a lot of fans needed to stop caring about the NFL altogether.

I suppose it doesn't bother anyone how smug and condescending Brady was when he "laughed off" the accusations and said "now I've heard everything."

You know, because he was the one throwing these balls so CLEARLY he knew.

So, he's a world class liar who condones cheating. What a guy.

Always hated him. He'll end with an asterisk on all of his accomplishments.
