Jerry Rice admits to using "Stickum" even calls it a little cheating

haters gonna hate, doesn't have to make any sense
 
Cool. I assume he's going to kill himself now out of shame shortly.
 
Link doesnt work

‘I’m going to be point blank, I feel like it’s cheating,” Rice told Rome on January 22. “Because you have an edge up on your opponent and its unfortunate that it happened. I’m not saying the outcome of the game would have been different or anything like that because they got beat 45-7, but they still had an edge.”
In that same interview, Rice added, “I’ve played in cold weather, I know how hard the football is and you can grip the leather [if deflated] just a little bit better.”


“I know this might be a little illegal, guys, but you put a little spray, a little stickum on them, to make sure that texture is a little sticky,” Rice said, laughing.
 
I can't find the outrage to this anywheres. Link ?

Also : I have three children. Does anyone have a link that helps me appropriately discuss this with them at the supper table ? It would really help - thanks !
 
"Who knows what else they did without getting caught?? Once a cheater, always a cheater... TAINTED!!! *****" lol
 
Wow.

Putting a sticky adhesive on your gloves sounds like REAL cheating and not phony media-driven, sensationalism-driven, rating-driven fake scandals like cameramen being in the wrong place, or -.2 under inflated footballs in bad weather.

The greatest WR in the history of the NFL put a sticky substance on his gloves.

LOL
 
Seriously, let the severity of that sink in for a moment.
Joe Montana was throwing to a WR who put a sticky substance on his gloves.
 
Jerry Rice, you're a hypocrite. But you know the media well. You know they'll never label you as a cheater even though you clearly were one.
 
 
Jerry should have shut his mouth. Believe it or not, I was listening to Chad Dukes and he had on Sean Salisbury (I think it was Sean) and they brought this up! I can't believe the Stickum story is gaining traction, however slight. Of course, Sean and CHad think everything….Stickum, Deflategate is all totally absurd nonsense and they have felt so from day one. So that's good. Sean even impressed me by going on a full-on Brady GOAT tangent, calling out Charles Haley as a fool, among other things. He even said "Brady is the GOAT and if guys around the league don't like it, they can kiss his Tom Bradyness", which made me LOL.

Sports radio at its finest, gotta admit.

Lol you live in the VA area also?

I'm surprised this stickum story is gaining attention. Foxnews, CBS, NBC, etc all reporting it. I actually think it's hilarious and has exposed Rice as a hypocrite lolll
 
Yes, sir, I do! In Vienna, in fact. I wasn't listening to Dukes up till now even though my husband assured me he was on our side from the beginning. But today I am glad I tuned in to ESPN radio. First Vereen was on and then that awesome discussion of Brady's general GOATness.
 
Nice! Same here in Chantilly! There's actually a good amount of Pats fans around here
