It seem when people hear this word thy don't think of it a
rule violation... they think ... deception.
Cheating = Deceiving ..... PATS did not attempt to deceive anyone.
Most people I know believe Cheating means trying to get an advantage
without someone detecting that you are breaking rules.
This is why .... when people label the PATs as 'cheaters' , when
reporter after reporter (even pro PATs reporters ) refer to the
PATs video taping as cheating ..... it make me boil.
PATs did not CHEAT ... they did not hide the camera and try to
deceive anyone. The camera was in plain sight of millions of people.
It wasn't concealed. They broke a rule ... they did not deceive anyone which the word cheating implies.
Just had to vent after seeing once again so many news articles tacitly
assuming PATs cheated.
