They Cheated!*

[Michael]

I'm watching ESPN's NFL's Greatest Games
From 1999: Green Bay at San Francisco in an NFC Wild Card game. The 'Niners rallied for a 30-27 victory on Steve Young's 25-yard TD pass to Terrell Owens with eight seconds left. Young finished with 3 TD passes, while Brett Favre threw for 292 yards

"And a Niner said, "We knew they're signals and they knew ours"
:enranged: WHAT WHAT WAHT!!!! This is quite the revelation! I'm SHOCKED! SHOCKED! To find out they knew each others signals. I thought this never happened in the NFL? I thought the signals were such a coveted secret if anyone on another team knew them you were sure to lose. They were frauds!! Hand out the asterisks!!
Hand out the asterisks!!

The camera was taken in the first quarter and the Pats never saw the tape. So, how did they cheat in that game?

By that definition every team in the league is guilty of cheating, holding is cheating, offsides is cheating, PI is cheating, blocks in the back are cheating. By your definition every team in the league and by extension every championship team are cheaters.

Honestly if all you can grab hold of as an fan of an opposing team is "you cheated" you need to develop some imagination.

I posted a thread a while ago pointing out that lots of teams are guilty of tampering, salary cap violations, and other violations, and I provided links to articles about those indiscretions. Those things don't affect their legacies or their accomplishments, but it does speak to the hypocrisy of their fans.

The Jaguars have been accused of being a dirty team. Terms like spearing and late hits have been offered up. To me this means the team you root for, by your own definition, are cheaters and personally I think that rules violations that could physically harm another player are far worse than violations that result in one team knowing the signals of another team.

Don't bother wasting your time with them. They are convinced we are the only team in the NFL to do what we were caught doing, so be it - reality would suggest otherwise. We received our punishment and lets move on.

haha, this is funny. wasn't steve young one of the biggest critics of the whole stupid spygate? and his teammate in a playoff game basically said they knew the calls coming out. just shows how blown out of proportion this is.

Whatever you throw us at....guess what you get back.....16-0 ...piss of more..you get 19-0.

In fact I want it to happen more. With that bug mouth :singing: SPICER:singing: watch...it will be a field day for him that he would never want to remember.....19-0 is on baby

That Stubby Running Back Is Gonna Embarrass Your Linebackers Like He Did Merriman When He Put Him To Sleep On The Field

And Brady's gonna light up your back field with 6 td's like he did washington, they're gonna be left standing there like an ethiopian watching a donut roll down a hill, or better yet, homo's at a hotdog eating contest.

Because They Rcorded It Thats Is The Rule You Cannot Videotape Signals From The Opponent Dont Get It Skewed They Cheated They Video'd The Calls It Doesnt Say You Only Cheat If You Watch It Says You Cheat If You Video It Cheaters

Sorry you are wrong. It is 100% legal to videotape opponents. You just can't do it on the sidelines. I don't know why it is so hard for people to get this after being told numerous times. Are you willfully ignorant to the truth or do you just like pulling people chains to get them rilled up. Seriously I'm telling you the rule so are you going to remember it and stop shouting 'Cheaters', or just ignore it and continue to look like a fool?

Those are the 2 best analogies that I have ever read. may I use them sometime.

Nobody has cheated. Just shut up and quit fanning the flames of hell.
