And I actually disagree with that. Vehemently. ("Of course you do, Boffo." someone somewhere is saying.)

Yes, the game ended up being a huge lopsided blowout by any measure. But we can't project ANY of that to how the game would have played out without the cheating. Maybe Brady or anyone else would have fumbled. Maybe Brady would have thrown interceptions at crucial moments. Maybe the softer footballs were the difference between a catch and a pass attempt bouncing off hands. Put together enough of these maybes going a different way, and even a blowout could have gone differently.

More to the point, the Patriots, like they did through Spygate, admitted they NEEDED to cheat by the act of cheating. They were afraid of losing the game otherwise. No one just cheats for the evulz in real life.

I don't think the Colts win that game if the Patriots had to play with cinder blocks instead of footballs.

I don't think they NEEDED to cheat to win.

But IF they did knowingly go outside of the rules to try to gain an advantage that's enough for me and I don't care if the Colts had no chance to win or if the game was decided because of the cheating. It's the same to me, you did the deed. It doesn't matter if you cheated on your wife with a hot 25 year old or a skanky ass aging crack addled hooker, you still did the deed, you cheated.

If it can be proven that this was done by design and that BB ordered it he should be kicked out of the NFL. No need to fine anyone, or take draft picks away, just get him out for good. If there was someone else who was responsible then they should be kicked to the curb for good too. Anyone involved with it should be finished in the sport.

Kickers balls are different. They aren't among the 12 balls a teams offense plays with.

That made me feel awkward to type out. But I'm only trying to help.

Skanky aging crack addled ones why yes of course.

Or were you referring to that high end hooker you got in Vegas a few years ago? :whistle:

I would assume at the very least that it would be a distraction for the Patriots that the Seahawks don't have.

IMO it provides Sherman an excellent smack opportunity, but FWIW there are some Francessa to be specific who suggest BB should be DQ'd from the SB ,and NOW which would only benefit their next opponent and noot those who may have been damaged in fact during the season after all not all their wins were blowouts, they had two wins against the Jets by a TOTAL of three points and only beat the vaunted Raiders by 7

Just saw that the Ravens tipped off the Colts to check the underinflated balls - suggesting a pattern.

I hope the league takes it out on them in draft picks - and sends a real message w them.

You don't think a wife would be at least a little more offended by the skank? I mean if you cheated with some drop dead hotty, the wife would have to be thinking, "yeah - I guess I'd do her too". Personally, I think that should force the wife to up her game. Just me? :D
