SUPER BOWL XLIX: Scary Black Men versus Dirty Rotten Cheaters

[Krandor]

Sapp has had his contract with NFL network terminated. I'm sure no one is torn up about this.

conspiracy/cheater time

tldr; avril on the Seahawks is thought to have a concussion, nfl medical team watching game calls down and says get him in the locker room for testing. avril not cleared to return, stays out rest of game.

nfl calls down for edelman to get concussion test in 4th quarter, they dont send him to the locker room and have their doctors clear him on the sideline. one teammate says edelman looked like he was about to fall asleep any second, and after the game edelman refers to seattle as St. Louis, lol

NL will predictably call me a hater even though I don't care, I just think it's hilarious

With this kind of shit at this point I just say go for it.

If you can do whatever and then just act smug about it later and get off then every team should do it. And if they aren't its their own fault for not taking advantage of it.

Belichick knows he can bend the rules however he wants because he's who he is and he'll get away with it eventually by ignoring it. Everyone else should be doing the same at this point

Nah.

Would just call you petty and delusional.

Which rules has he been bending?
Please give actual evidence of said examples instead of just rambling nonsense.
(No offense)

I see a lot of whining about the Patriots over complete and utter nonsense, and little care about Seattle's PEDs or illegal practices, Cleveland's "electronic devices," pumping in crowd noise, coaches trying to interfere on the sidelines with running players, salary cap violations, etc etc etc

Hard to take the complaining seriously when it's coming from people with no credibility or consistency. I guess people think if they just say "The Patriots cheat" often enough it becomes true. Things like a lack of evidence and facts seem to be a mere ignorable inconvenience for you people.

[Berdysh]

Team doctors and an independent neurologist perform an on-field concussion test. You either pass and you're cleared to play, or you fail and you're given a 20 minute test in the locker room. Edelman passed, Avril failed. It's stupid protocol because if the objective is player safety everyone should undergo the 20 minute test, but that's all it is.

[Aragon of Odin]

I thought it was Atlanta using electronic devices to pump in crowd noise

[NinjaLotter]

If the Patriots were responsible for providing Indy's balls, and gave them slightly under inflated ones, you guys would say it's a competitive advantage for the Patriots because they gave Indy under inflated balls which "lowers pass velocity." They have slightly under inflated footballs and it's a "better grip."

Media writes its own bullshit and you guys just go with it because it's what you want to believe,

[Mertron]

too easy lol

[NinjaLotter]

lol

It was

[Headspace]

too easy lol

Get em

[Celeras]

At this point I'm just hoping for some kind of suspension instead of the lame-ass fine they got the last time. You know, the first time they were punished by the league for cheating.

[Krandor]

You mean a suspension for something that carries a max punishment of a 25k fine for the team as a whole?

You do realize that in order to be penalized, the Patriots will first have to be convicted of something, right?

No, of course you don't. In your George Orwellian world, Warren Sapp and Ray Lewis calling them cheaters on ESPN is all the proof you need. lol

This country is so fucked

[Celeras]

That is not even remotely true.

Oh, you don't say? They'd have to be convicted a second time? Damn. That will be hard to accomplish with 11 out of 12 balls being tampered with and a video of the ball boy taking them into the fucking bathroom after they were examined by the officials.

[NinjaLotter]

This is why you're stupid. 11 out of 12 balls were not "tampered with" - they were below 12.5 PSI. One (the one intercepted by the Colts) is allegedly 2 under. The other 10 were reportedly "just a tick under" (meaning .nothing). That isn't "tampered with."

When you walk outside in the winter and see one of your tires low, do you run over to your neighbors house and start accusing them of tampering with your car like an insane retard? You think a ballboy deflated 11 balls in 90 seconds instead of just took a piss? I'm sorry our public school system has failed you in such spectacular fashion.

Marshall Faulk's twitter page isn't that clever. I'm sorry it and bullshit like it has such a strong grip on your brain.

That depends. Is my neighbor an ex-felon who previously served time for GTA, and do I have a videotape of him crawling underneath the car for a few minutes?

[Berdysh]

If you're expecting a suspension out of deflategate you're going to be really disappointed. Right now the best you can hope for is Goodell citing a "preponderance of evidence" and fining the Patriots. Every new leak contradicts the previous leak; we started at 11 balls 2 PSI under, now we're at 10 balls a few ticks under and the ball attendant is an elderly guy who spent 98 seconds in the bathroom.

The NFL just recently admitted officially (meaning not a bullshit leak) that it has no record of what the balls were at inspection, meaning they were probably as they were when the officials checked them. The referees probably just give them a quick eye and squeeze test to make sure they are playable footballs and give them the green light. This is probably why Rodgers said he tries to get balls at 14 PSI past the officials because that's how he likes them.

In other words, this was a completely fake scandal the media drummed up for ratings and to tarnish the Patriots (for more ratings).

If the NFL has no idea what the balls were at inspection, the "tampering with footballs after inspection" goes right out the fucking window.

[NinjaLotter]

I love that all the Patriot beatdowns of the lowly, shitty, circus show JESTS have left their idiotic fans traumatized to the point that all they have left is hoping Belichick gets suspended for a full season because a few footballs were at 12.3 PSI instead of 12.5.

That Thanksgiving game really did a number on you dumb asses.

You went full Steeler fan.

You never go full Steeler fan.
