Default Opinion: Pats are cleared

After watching the NFL Today and Fox...listening to Jimmy Johnson, Bill Cowher, Barry Switzer, Howie Long, and Keshawn Johnson...it's pretty safe to say this notion that the Pats had an advantage is just bull$****.

End of Story.

Wish it was that simple, but this will never be let go...Its starting to make the Lisa Olsen incident laughable...

Nah, we still violated the rule by using the video camera. But I have to say, after seeing the footage, it just seems kind of lame to me. You can see that stuff with your own eyes from the sidelines.

Yes...football fans MAY understand that...but for John Doe, the Pats will always be guilty of cheating...until someone in the mass media has the guts to expose the myth in full it will not change.

Do us all and yourself a favor Sean by taking your long predictible over the edge emotions out for a long walk. And when you come back in, stay off the computer - you simply can't deal.

The Lisa Olsen incident WAS laughable. What do you expect from a sports locker room? Anyone who's played a sport in their life, from peewee to the pros, knows what goes on in locker rooms. Now add a woman reporter to the equation and people were really surprised about that? It doesn't excuse it, but was it really a surprising event? Nah, and it's sort of funny, too.

Goodell has his teeth into this and believe me it's going to get worse, a lot worse, before it gets better. Strap yourselves in Pats fans because we are going to feel emotions in Patriots Nation that we haven't experienced since the start of this great run. We've lost the moral high ground. They're all gonna come after us from every angle and they're going to enjoy it.

It's a football game, not a political campaign.

All we need to do is play football, not wait for Dungy to get caught with a wide stance in a stall.

This one nails it -- sad but true. Around the corner is the next bitter ex-player, coach etc with somethign to say.
