You dont see it as a big deal because its your team who did it. That would be the same as people finding out the Yankees mandate that all hitters take steroids. Its the best team over the last 10 years blatantly cheating beyond what any other team does to get an advantage.
If you cant understand that miking lineman, messing with radio frequenceies (which no patriot fan has addressed the 2previous times I brought it up) and videotaping is diffent than just having the backup QB and punter looking at the coaches during the game, then there is no helping you understand.
Btw I have never heard the story about Miami miking anyone, post a link or article about Miami doing this to the Patriots.
I don't see as a big deal because everybody is bending the rules some a little and some a lot and I really don't see the need to single out one team when it's a epidemic. It's pretty much become part to the chess match that is the game.
Same thing with bonds who somebody compared this pats thing too. Sure it's wrong that he took steroids, but it's also wrong to only single him out when 80-90 percent of baseball players are doing it. In fact some major leaguers that played back in the 1960's and 70's claim that a high percentage of players juiced back then!!!!!!! So maybe even aaron did some roids..... We will never know.
So really in the end If roger clemens who si loaded on roids is pitching to bonds who is loaded on roids does it matter??? They are both cheating so it evens out. That is my whole point in this argument. ( BTW JD drew needs to sue his dealer because his roids or hgh or both are not working He needs to go find out where David Ortiz or A-rod get theres. LOL)
They all cheat so it's even
See I differ from you in this not just because it's the pats but because I firmly believe that cheating has become a major part of pro sports and that such a high percentage is cheating in some way that it almost evens out. I really wish we could get rid of the cheating but it will not happen EVER because there is just way to much money involved.
Do a internet search you will find stuff about the miami mic stuff. . It was not reported all that well because the Phins suck so who cares if a non playoff team "cheat" to beat a dynasty team that is hated in most areas of the country, it's just not the nice neat news story this cameragate thing is.
BTW how about the cameramen on the jets sidelines that the media is avoiding like a minefeild. I posted the pics in a link earlier in this topic.
Honestly I was a little shocked how this thing was handled. Everything out in the open, I would have thought they would have came to a conclusion and then told us what that was.... It's almost like Goodell wants to keep this in the front pages as long as possible.. why is goodell telling the media everything that is going on?
Why not just request the material he wants without telling the media??? Stuff like this is really starting to make this look like a witch hunt.
BTW I love how Kraft picked right now to extend Belichick until 2013!!!!! What a NICE FU that was! Want to make a bet that a 500k "bonus" was in that deal..
On a side note, did anyone hear Bradys comments about how lucky NE fans are because their team is SO awesome. What a freakin arrogant bastard.
I did not hear that but it's true, we are very lucky to have a team that has won 3 superbowls this decade and is still among the top three teams . The last great dynasty ( dallas in the early 90's) was already well into decline 7 years after they won the first one, Belichick has been able to fit new parts in with the core group and keep this team competitive for a SB. sure they dropped off in 2005 and also in 2002 but other then that they have been a elite team.
Are you surprised Brady is cocky? He is a NFL quarterback, you need to be cocky to do that job. A self doubter would not have made it to the NFL no matter what he has for physical tools. All these guys are cocky... You need to be cocky to be a great athlete
Not many NFL cities have been lucky enough to have a multiple SB winner let alone three in four years. Plus in 2004 we had three major sport championships in a little over a year. So yeah we have been lucky.
