Deflate-gate......God I hate the Pats!!!!

[madinsomniac]

By weighed they had better of misspoken and meant pressure checked...

And one other thing... in a multibillion dollar league, why the **** is any team allowed to control anything game related in their stadiums these days... shouldn't the league be sending out people to check on all the things people cheat with... field conditions, equipment, sound... all that stuff....

 

[madinsomniac]

You are correct sir, but I can easily see a reporter misidentifying the procedure.

Yep probably was told they checked pounds per square inch and the reporter thought it was weighed...lol

 

[Shane Falco]

They probably had a pressure gauge provided by his truly. Mr. Bellicheck

Kraft has deeeeeeeeeeeeeeep ties to how the NFL makes it's money. ties to CBS, DirecTV, etc. all very ******* shady.

This. Great suggestion.

I don't get it. The *Patriots have shown, if they can violate it, get around it, mis-interpret it, cheat with it, they will damn sure try. There isn't an ounce of ethics in that organization, from Kraft, to Aaron Hernandez, to adulterous Bill B.

Why not make these things NFL controlled? The ball comes off the field, the ball goes to an NFL ball boy. Tennis does this. ****, it ain't that hard.

The headsets, the wireless, all should be NFL-run and monitored.

The same for the wireless helmets, etc. And frankly, have an NFL official check the players for wires. Remember when former *Patriot players alluded to the fact that D-Linemen were wearing wires to overhear calls at the line, etc?

 

[USDA#1]

at one point they tried to give GB the "Kickers ball" when they were down in *Pats territory.

everything that reeks comes from Foxboro.

I saw a few plays linebackers reacted as if they knew the play.
You have the stealing signals still possibility (just sneakier at it)
You have the eligible and ineligible rotation they have been doing with a vengeance.
Mr. what does he do (Hi Ernie) is still employed.
Those destroyed tapes was the beginning of Goodell covering things up, trying to lessen the damage that he continuously does.

Once a rapist, murder, thief, cheater. Does your pattern all of a sudden stop?

Billacheat looks for every edge he can find, and has no qualms about crossing the line.

That team wants to get back and win it all so they can say see Spygate was overblown.

But I think they are still being shady to accomplish it.

After the Superbowl the league should give cheat a lie detector test on everything that has happened from day 1 of his employment.

If you have nothing to hide you have no problem taking the lie detector test.

I am surprised nobody has issued a challenge yet.

But the media doesn't want to piss off Goodell, and we know he will Ray Rice act stupid for any relevant accusations he is presented with.

 

[Superman]

one question i've had...
how do we know that only one player has a speaker in their headset (aside from the obvious green dot)?

 

[Steeltime]

Shouldn't the thread title be, "Tom Brady plays with deflated balls"?

 

[skline00]

As a lifelong Stiller fan I have no love for the Patriots but deflated footballs? Unless the refs only gave them to the Patriots and not the Colts why would this only help Brady and not Luck also?

Apparently this was first reported by an Indianapolis reporter.

Sounds like desperation by a loser.

 

[Vader]

Agreed. 3 teams in our division go to the playoffs (all 4 were in contention until the Manzel fiasco). NE's division?
Bills 9-7; Dolphins 8-8 and Jets 4-12 (yes Jet fans we were one of your wins).

Steeler's Division?
Us 11-5: Bengals 10-5-1;Ravens 10-6 and Browns 7-9

And not one team in the Steeler division won a single playoff game except against another one in the division. The bungles got hammered against Indy and the rats lost to NE because their all world QB choked. Name one team in the AFC that was going to beat NE?

Yes, the pats* are cheating scumbags. However they play division leaders every year and beat them. 2 of their 4 loses this year came from their own division. They destroyed the bungles, Indy and Den. in the regular season. What division do you want to put them in that they wouldn't dominate? Hell the Steelers suck against them. Put them in the Steelers division and the Steelers probably are still suck on 4 SBs.

Also how are the other AFC division so great? Look at the AFC West... SD, Den, KC and Oakland. Name the last time one of those teams won a SB. SD and KC have NEVER won a SB. Hell the clowns and bungles have never won a SB and neither have even won a playoff game in decades. Like I said I hate the pats* but what division they play in doesn't mean much when they play (and destroy) a first place schedule and the rest of the AFC sucks.

each team provides to the ref their own balls...they have balls just for kicking and balls for regular snaps...so no Brady and Luck don' t play with the same balls...this made me crack up typing it

All the balls were checked prior to distribution, I think. What would stop the Pats from deflating them on the sidelines AFTER passing inspection?

It helps your grip when you have small hands.

Is the ball boy a Pats* employee? Be easy enough to hide a needle in your hand to let some air out of the balls. I think we need to see videotape.

 

[thumbring]

Always living right on the edge of the rules. Once a cheater, always a cheater. Seems like it's an addiction for them -- no matter how insignificant the opportunity, if it presents itself, they gotta do it.

I hope Seattle destroys them.

Nobody in their right mind would take a lie detector test for ANY reason short of a criminal investigation or a security clearance. Lets stay in reality.

For the sake of correctness, the Chiefs actually did win a superbowl, but its ancient history so I can understand if someone doesnt recall it right away.

 

[DBS1970]

Just like Spygate Ole Rodge will cover this up for his buddy Kraft.

**** if I was continuously accused I would want to clear the air

If I ran the league I would want to clear the air

if I was guilty yeah no way in hell....... which is why they should (NFL) force the issue

but we know Goodell is too shady to ever want to right the ship, much easier to cover it up

 

[Steelers1356]

The thing is though....they are talented enough to win without the cheating

Maybe the cheating gives them the illusion that they're talented, just saying.

 

[black and gold apex]

Just for the fact it was mentioned as a possibility the NFL should come down hard on the Pats. We all know with the relationship of God-del and Kraft nothing will be done or said about this. Would anyone in this league be surprised from this, I really doubt it.

Rog has already burned the offending footballs.

Agree that they are talented enough to win without cheating (probably) and will end up like the Barry Bonds situation where he was good enough to get into the HOF without cheating, cheated and got better, and now won't get into the HOF because he cheated.

 

[Vader]

You're right. They won the year I was born.. 1970. Anything before 1973 I get foggy on.

 

[slashsteel]

you look at spygate and they haven't won a SB since. Harder now as the league is set up as every team being on a level playing field with free agency and the cap.

They are talented enough to win games and win playoff games. But they want to win championships so they look for any edge they can find. Difference is this coach will cheat to accomplish it. He did it over and over despite the league telling him to stop.


If you had a pedophile living next door to you, you would not think he magically developed morals.

A cheater will not magically go away from that taste of victory and everything that comes with it.

Contract extensions, etc,.

That owner gave cheat a raise after spygate, they will do anything to win that club.

anyone who thinks anything less is terribly misguided

 

[Steeltime]

The conversation went something like this:

"Mr. Belichick, may I have the honor of handling your balls? They are LOVELY balls, by the way."
