Pats Cheating Comfirmed
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.

I said it in the other thread, I'll say it in this one. Belichick should be Pete Rosed. I understand our society in large part has diminished the value of honor and integrity, but that shouldn't make it less important to an organization that has placed an emphasis on those qualities for decades. Belichick has proven repeatedly he has no value on those 2 qualities and he has now tarnished them for the entire league. Justice should be swift, and lethal. Let one of the assistants coach them in the Super Bowl.

I think we should let Pete Rose coach the Super Bowl.

Have any of you thrown and caught a full ball vs. an underinflated ball?
There is a pretty big difference. |

The Mythbusters have the potential for a great show from this.

I don't think whether they won or lost really matters. Or by how much.

What will the punishment be? We can't be certain this is the first time the Pats have done this so you have to wonder if they even deserve going to the SB at all.
I don't like the Colts. Quite frankly I ****ing despise them... but letting the Pats play in the SB over the Colts this year will be nothing short of the NFL perpetuating cheating. Draft picks won't be enough this time. There must be blood.

I wish they would. That would be extremely appropriate and justified for cheating once again. How many chances do theg get before something drastic happens.

It seems that NFL ball manipulation is sort of like baseball manipulation, which nobody cared about until they did.
Aaron Rodgers admitted that he attempted to overinflate the ball. Nobody cared. The Vikings and Jaguars were caught warming the ball (also illegal). Nobody cared, adn the NFL said "hey, stop that". Buccaneers winning quarterback Brad Johnson admitted that he paid $7,500 for ball boys to manipulate the ball. http://www.sbnation.com/2015/1/21/78...wl-deflategate Patriots MAY have deflated the balls (the balls were underinflated, but the how/why is not yet resolved), and everyone is demanding that heads roll. The problem, of course, is that reality doesn't matter -- perception is all that matters now. The Patriots are no benefit of the doubt from anyone (Cheatriots! Spygate!) and are widely hated for having so much success for so long. Belichick having the personality and loveability of a turnip doesn't help of course. The rulebook provides for the punishment here -- $25,000 or whatever else the Commish says. It's the same as for wearing the wrong color cleats. But hey, Cheatriots! And it's affecting the NFL's image right before the Super Bowl, and talking heads need to fill two weeks of time, so I do expect heads will roll -- either Patriots heads or ref heads. And they may lose at least one fan for life, since this all seems quite absurd to me. http://www.csnne.com/new-england-pat...wn-deflategate

You can be a Chiefs fan then, since that's our tagline.
