Any Questions??
Yes.
Since you yet once again trot out the 'footy-pajama' line, I am curious.
Which one are you: Felger, Mazz, or Steve from Fall River?

Thats between me and him and none of your god damn business

What was that ? I missed it and can't find it in this small threadHorrible feeling about this, especially that "insider" bit in the ESPN piece.

Ah, OK, thanks. Yeah that didn't sound great."Yet to be determined is what, if any, penalties may be imposed upon Patriots. One source described the league as "disappointed ... angry ... distraught," after spending considerable time on the findings earlier Tuesday."
The pregnant question is: who are they disappointed, angry and distraught about, the Patriots, the officials or themselves? I'll give ya one guess..."Yet to be determined is what, if any, penalties may be imposed upon Patriots.

You made it public moron. That's on YOU! That bet was made with fggsand and you said you'd post the reciept. Post #109. You made it everyones god damn buisness. Put your money where your mouth is.Thats between me and him and none of your god damn business
And playing by the same rules everyone else has to. And if you get caught you have pay the piper just like in real life.

If what NE did was submit under-inflated balls to the refs in the hopes the refs didn't thoroughly test them and they'd slip through (i.e. what Rogers has admitted the Packers do in the opposite direction), or did something a bit sneakier (like inflating to 12.5 PSI with warm/hot air), I'm OK with that. And if Goodell tries to punish NE with anything more than a fine I want Kraft to tell Goodell that's total BS and that he'll forfeit the game unless the punishment is changed to be more in line with the "crime" (which wouldn't actually be against any rule).
I also note that since P2 = (T2/T1) * P1 (where P and T are absolute pressures and temps), a drop from 70F to 50F would mean about a 1.1 PSI drop. So if the NFL tries to punish based only on the balls being measured 1.5 PSI too low at halftime, I again want Kraft to go nuclear with the league.
But if the league actually does have evidence of the balls being messed with post-checkin (skullduggery on sideline, breaking into ball storage room after checkin, whatever), then I am done with Belichick and want Kraft to fire him. What's the point of having a coach that leads the team to wins when you can't enjoy the wins?

The difference in temp is what decides air pressure, not the cold weather
And only dumb ass footy pajama boy know nothing mo mo like yourself who doesn't have the IQ or personal integrity to think otherwise would disagree with me.
Any Questions??
Completely agree with this stance...I couldn't sleep last night, stayed up for hours reading on here and other places the tweets and info and whatnot. As a fan of this team it should piss EVERYONE off, either:
1. this is common practice, Rodgers has openly admitted he does the same thing, the panthers were doctoring balls on the sidelines, during a game, in front of a camera, after they had been warned, and STILL no league discipline or media outcry. If the refs just weren't checking and this is common practice the Patriots and ex-Patriots and local media and anyone who cares about this team should be rallying, finding any and all info on team practices and getting this info in the public domain, tell Goodell to F off because the league made this mess.
2. this ISN'T common practice and Belichick just cannot be trusted to run an honest program. Cameragate was overblown madness, they didn't deserve the penalties or the league-wide scorn. This time? I don't care what the benefit is on the field this would be blatant,systemic cheating and unacceptable. The players should be pissed for disgracing all their hard work, the fans should be pissed for tarnishing the reputation of their favorite team.
One of those two situations will play out...I'm praying like hell #1 happened, in which case we need scorched F'n earth from Kraft and everyone in the organization pushing back on an inept, pathetically run league. If #2 happens I'm avoiding all sports talk until the Sox start up because there's no way I can enjoy the SB with this kind of info out there.
Gotta be #1...
