None of that was systemic cheating like this. Sure, Mike Tomlin was DEFINITELY on the field for Jacoby Jones' return. And got fined a quarter milly out of his personal paycheck. He admitted he was wrong in the post game presser. Hardly "gate" material.
Everyone was juicing in the 70's, that's not even remarkable. And the spygate thing isn't even cheating. If you say your signals out loud or put them on cards for the world to see, I can take them. I can't videotape them, but I can remember them and write them down. You just trolled me so hard! I love it!

Lol Trolling is all we have left. That, and next year.
I saw that on FB, then I came here and saw your thread and couldn't resist.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay." For context, this is the previous verse: "Hi Jesus" -robvalue
The Cheatriot/Cheatriot fan butthurt is the most tasty part of this for me.

Name a team that wouldn't trade $1m, two draft picks and their QB our for four weeks for another SB title. The league needs to start handing out punishments that actually hurt the offending clubs instead of these slaps on the wrist. $25 mil, no 2016 draft and forfeiture of their first four games would be more appropriate. Of course, stripping the title would be the best punishment, but the league wants to continue to pretend that it still has some semblance of integrity so that'll never happen.
Thief and assassin for hire. Member in good standing of the Rogues Guild.
Forfeiting the games would have a shitty effect for the rest of the league, though, essentially giving four teams a free win an one less game played each.
The most egregious part of this is not the actual deflating of the balls. It's Robert Kraft demanding an apology from the league before the investigation, it's the fact that nobody from the Cheatriots questioned Ted Wells' ability to perform an independent investigation until after the report came out and they didn't like the results. It's the fact that they still maintain this air of integrity after they've been shown to have a clear culture of cheating. They earned the Super Bowl. They won that game fair and square. You fuck over a lot of fans if you cancel the Super Bowl or just declare no winner. I don't think it was the first time they used deflated balls, and I don't know how many games were affected by it. But there's no way to prove that. If the AFC championship weren't an absolute blowout, an argument could have been made that the Colts should have gone to the Super Bowl. But those deflated balls didn't cause the Colts to score only 7 points. And they didn't allow Tom and the Cheatriots offense to score 45 points, 28 in the second half with normally inflated balls. I think the fines were enough. It's more than almost any other fine the league has ever handed down. Losing a first round pick is massive. Losing a whole year's draft would be excessive.

For your viewing pleasure:
Brady is appealing the ruling. I didn't see that coming. He got off light. Better to take his medicine and move on.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
