Football Pats Cheating Comfirmed - Page 73

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.

Sounds like another one of the NFL's outstanding rules.

I get the feeling that it's about to change...

If the talking heads are right, it was rammed through mainly by Manning and Brady, but after this I can see the NFL saying that the football is the football. And I agree, punting, kicking, running or throwing, either team, just use the ball the center snaps and that'll be one (of 5!!) the NFL brought that day.

What they did is not the point. They cheated.

They have in the past and they are continuing to cheat.

It's BS, no cheating should be tolerated, period.

So would EVERYONE else's if Brady had just said.

"You know what, I thought they were slightly off but my hands were a little numb and I just figured that was the problem. I should have said something. I'm sorry."

But the mystery deflation that the above average QB couldn't detect, even tho he has above average ball condition expectations, is too much of a mystery for people to ever be able to leave it alone.

Who knows how the game would have played out if they werent cheating in the first half.

And this "You can cheat as long as you would've won anyway." is ridiculous.

So you're telling me that I'm supposed to believe that an equipment manager said **** the rules (and with no outside influence) and deflated the balls for Brady? And Brady didn't know about it? And Belichick didn't know about it? Seriously?

They don't care about the rules.

I can guarantee you that if they were 2 lbs light of air, ANYBODY can tell that the ball has less air in it. For Brady to act obtuse is just spitting at the rules.

I love how they asked him if he's a cheater and his answer was "I don't think so"

Haha

Might as well say "yeah, but I'll do anything for another asterisk championship."

They would have still won. It's pretty obvious.

Fine them. Change the rules. Move on.

You ****ing deserve that scumbag franchise.

"I have no explanation" is another textbook example of weasel words, just like Brady's "I don't believe I'm a cheater." Neither of those statements actually deny anything if you pay attention to them.

They both lied and bullshitted their way through the press conferences. It was so obvious that ESPN took a break from their usual Patriots/Brady dick-sucking to actually call them out for lying.

'splain yourself, please? Am I to believe the NFL makes rules to favor particular QB's?

RunKC · 01-23-2015, 11:41 AM

Some equipment manager is going to take the fall for this because Brady and Belicheat "didn't know"

And nothing will happen. No suspensions. Maybe a first rd pick is taken away, but I doubt it. It's ridiculous.

I hope the Seahawks rape them just as hard as they raped Denver last February.

So what is the threshold for the rules?

When is it ok to not follow the rules? and what rules are a big deal and must be followed all the time?

If i'm 'The League' i'm getting really sick of this shit.

It's a business not a nursemaid service. They shouldn't need to be hiring former FBI and detectives to investigate constantly.

IF ............... the reports are true about balls being properly inflated before the game and only the Patriots' balls being deflated at halftime, i drop the hammer.

They can't actually prove anyone specifically did anything. But they do know that someone from the organization deflated the balls.

They can't punish Brady, the NFLPA won't allow it without proof.

All the NFL can do is punish the organization as a whole.

Major fine - millions+
Loss of draft picks - multiple

It's never ok to not follow the rules, hense the fine.

I'm simply saying this is not some big deal that deserves all of this huge ass media investigation.

It's pretty reeruned for the NFL to allow teams to have their own balls to use. There should be game balls that both teams share like every other ****ing sport.

Fine them. Change the rules. Move on.
