I’m not even sure what I would do for a Klondike bar. Or what Brown can do for me.

And most importantly, what is the matrix?

Brady shirt, easily.

Like Jordan, I've gone from hate to respect as his achievements have made me feel fortunate to be alive while it's happening.

I know that's not popular here.
He is a cheater and will always be a cheater to me no matter what accomplishments he gets.

Like I said, not a popular opinion.

I think deflategate was pretty overblown, and as far as the Patriots cheating - that wasnt Brady.

You don't see the Saints players getting slammed for bountygate, but they reaped the rewards and played dirty to get there.

Doesn't make sense to hold that against Brady.

From what I read, he was given the plays that the other team were doing on defense so he had to know what was going on.

So nope - BIG ASS CHEATER to me.

You won't change my mind on that.

The Rams Super Bowl loss was just the first of three Patriot Super Bowl wins before the NFL and the Patriots burnt the tapes.

That's fine. A lot of Rams fans have never been able to get over it.

But if you really read what you just wrote, it makes no sense:

When you watch tape you can assemble a list of plays a defense runs, so everyone has that.

But a defense isn't scripted so it's impossible to know what they are doing any other way than watching film and studying tendencies which is not cheating

Then why did they burn the tapes after not letting the teams that suffered the taping of their pre-Super Bowl practices? Although the fines were relatively minor, they still prevented those of us who think they were damn, stinking cheaters from seeing them. They DESERVE our doubting them for doing that.

He new what was going on. He was all for it.

His legacy is a sham yet he wears it like he earned every bit. Maybe it’s jealousy, or just being pissed because his ref favoritism through the years in one way or another has screwed your team out of a big win.

What adds to it is Brady’s gloating and then him being a whiny bitch on the field. He’s so easy to hate. If it was Manning or Kurt in place of Brady, then it would be tougher to dislike him. But the guy is a pompous ass.

The bottom line is it is cheating. If you drive the getaway car in a bank robbery then you are guilty. If you are there just holding a gun and watching the robbers back you are an accomplice. Brady is as guilty as Belichick.

They were taping the hand signals from the DC. Paired with regular film and syncing them up in time, you can determine what hand signals call which plays. Give that information to an above average QB and you get offensive production that of oversized compared to the quality of WR, RB, and OL. It's been weird how they always manage to get so much production out of nobodies. And almost everybody that left there returned to being a nobody.

Thats the Patriots organization, not Brady. And as we found out at the end, he and Belichick didn't always see eye to eye.

And he still had to play well in those games. Game winning drives against us and the Panthers.

Brees is in the same boat as Brady's first three. But nobody holds that against him.

If Belichick is ordering it to be recorded, which is breaking the rules then it is cheating.
You can try to steal a catchers signs while standing on second base. But recording them and hitting a garbage can to alert hitters is blatant cheating.

Both were on the same level.

Brees didn't cheat against us in the Super Bowl. I am not saying that Bellicheat and Brady were not bordering on great even without the cheating. The competitive advantage STOLE the greatest season in Rams history from us. That Rams team was the best we ever had, but they are lost in history now because of the Patriots cheating. I could give a hot damn about what the Saints did.

I would be willing to put SB36 in the past and leave it there. My dad used to say "What's done is done." My mom's take on things was "I'll forgive, but I can't forget."
Interesting pairing, those two.

This is exactly what I meant from Brady knowing the plays coming in.

He knew what was going on and benefited from it.

And I don't think they did it on every play. They didn't want to be obvious with it.

They only did it at critical junctures of each game (especially the game ending drives).
