C'mon, Man!

You're better than this!

Think about it. Brady likes the ball on the low end of the range. He never said he wanted them at an illegal level. That's kinda relevant here.

That is the best

Like a SB winning QB not named caught cheating would get LESS than 4 games?

Do people really believe that?

It's insane

They'll say and believe literally ANYTHING other than that Brady is a liar, coward and cheat.

And I do mean ANYTHING.

Precedent, huh? How about the Chargers using "sticky towels" a couple years ago and getting a $20k fine. How about the 2 teams last year that were "heating" the balls on the sideline? They got a warning. Those are the only other "ball doctoring" cases I saw. Nothing like suspensions, draft picks and fines. Goodell caved to the masses; simple as that.
Ball warming has less of an impact on the game than ball deflating. Ball deflating leads to more receptions and less fumbles, whereas ball warming only temporarily modifies the ball.

ALL of that is going to disappear on appeal. The Wells report proves nothing. The report said that Belichick was not involved, so why dock the draft picks? Why the fine? Makes ZERO sense.

You're going PennState/Jerry Sanduski on us!

Because you are missing the forest for the trees.

You've run down the rabbit holes. And you cannot see.

PATTERN of cheating. And acting like dicks all the time. BOOM!

Rarely a good strategy. Don't cheat all the time and don't act like a dick all the time.

Then this stuff doesn't happen.

The nail that stands out must be hammered down.

Pats are getting a lot of support from the sports media on this. LaCanfora thinks the punishment is BS. Same with Wetzel at Yahoo. Even noted Pats hater Drew Magary at Deadspin thinks it is BS. These are actual reporters; I'm less concerned with the opinion of "Thumper" or "Hammer".

It's so obvious. And the stats back it up. Terrible cheating!

Move on.

They would say this nonsense. They have to maintain access. As media and press. They lie through their teeth.

Hammer and I, and anybody who hammers & thumps the Patriots right now will be denied access to future interviews. You are literally taking the words of whores and running with them.

We have no dog in this fight. No benefit it all. Just love and RESPECT for the of the INTEGRITY of the game.

We call it as we see it. No bias.

Wait a minute! Bashing the NFL will help them get access??? Try again.

They don't interview the "NFL."

Think.

They interview star Brady. Unless they piss him off even a little. Kraft. Belicheat. The Patriots players.
And other dick players. Even on other teams and in other sports.

Never looks good to take the side of the League if you you want to interview PLAYERS.

Fans want interviews of players.

How do you mix these things up?

You literally can't get them to admit he lied. The standard response is he never cheated, cooperated with the wells group, and did what everyone would have done in not giving his personal phone to his employers right?

You can't get them to deal with the parts where it shows he lied to the Wells group. And they can't CAN'T stop claiming the NFL wanted his phone when it was the Wells group that simply wanted his own lawyer to just take out the texts related to this case and forward them. A deal I've never ever heard of.

There is no amount of reason that can reach them. None. Facts be damned.

...or will Jimmy G. establish himself as superior to the aging cheater with severely diminished skills and a total inability to throw a regulation football?

Hammer, you really need to cheer up

He didn't get punished for cheating. Even the Wells report doesn't conclude he cheated. He got punished for not cooperating.

Why should I read it?

Frankly, I don't care.

This is not a burning issue for my soul.

I'm satisfied by the League's ruling.

I would have made it for a full season. They gave a lot less but I will live with the full 4. The appeal will be laughed off.

1st round pick. But the league went further. So that's good. 4th round pick too. Good job!

Million bucks. Light for me. I would have made it ten million.

But over all the league put its foot down to the Patriot's PATTERN of cheating and FAILURE to Cooperate.

Well done!

Let's move on.

It's all over but for the crying.

Please don't belittle yourself any further.

I don't like to see you tarnish your good name by associating it with such cheaters.

Post of the Month candidate right here.

Again, I'm shocked at how reasonable and gracious Seahawks, Ravens and Colts fans are being about this because THEY are the real victims here.
