"thermometer gate"

[ivanvamp]

NFL should have checked balls in NE & Pitt. All of them.

If the NFL had any stones they'd have checked the pressure of the Jets' footballs yesterday. No way they were higher than like 10.5 psi.

Obviously same for the Pats too but we need a different team to test.

here is the sentence she refers to:

"All visible items worn on game day by players must be issued by the club
or the League, or, if from outside sources, must have approval in advance by the League office"​

Who says it wasn't issued by the club or pre-approved by the league?

good thing this level of media scrutiny wasn't around when Red was turning up the heat in the visitors locker rooms lol

I hope the thermometers were rigged to show it was colder than it actually was.

The league is now looking into a pats employee walking into the bathroom with a bag of thermometers before the game.

They did and found that Pittsburgh was balless.

Lol, what a joke. She fits right in with the huffpost

And she definitely has a future at Fox as they are the State sponsored propaganda machine.

Shank Shaughnessy giggles at Red's shenanigans and praises him for his " gamesmanship. ".And then he excoriates Bill for his " cheating." Just to be clear, I loved Red as much as I love Bill.

Remember back in the 90's Steve Young wearing a flak jacket for bruised/poss broken ribs. Uniform violation. Cheater. Flakgate.

It's so easy to start a new gate, it's almost as easy as the .com era.

But, but, but, it was visible when he took off his helmet on the sideline!!!!1!1eleven!!1

I wish Coach would have rigged the thermometers near the Jete locker room to read 15 degrees colder than it was. That would have been outstanding; watching everyone gnash their teeth about it the next two weeks.

Ahhh it must be Playoff time as Hits Just Keep On Comin!
Get ready for flood 'Gates' to open right after AFCCG two weeks before SB. They're warming up for sensational headlines, wouldn't be a Pats SB without some sort of controversy drummed up.

I saw Bell was wearing a wet suit hoodie in the Steelers locker room footage yesterday. Cheater!1!2!13!2!3!111!!

Radio wave atmospherics, weather, precision gauges, physics of air -- my god is there no end to the evil power of Belichick?

Pats fined 1mm, loss of draft pick for operation of weather machine outside of designated area of evil per league memo.

 

[pheenix11]

To really screw with their heads I would have rigged the thermometers to read 20 degrees higher than what it was.

They run out there and wonder why 40 degrees feels so cold they’ll start to question their own manhood.

Doug Flutie as a Bills QB used glass cutter gloves. This idiot "writer" is a Bills fan. Gloves in NFL have gained popularity but use is largely unregulated

 

[fourhour]

We need a new Hitler story about the gloves....

That reporter needs to get bullied mercilessly on Twitter today

Nothing quite like a bit of "bullying" to straighten this woman out... perhaps random, anonymous posters can "tweet" her to death.
