If Ben's knee is hurt as bad as he says why was he on the sideline standing on it for 3 & 1/2 hours?

Folks claiming that he is holding a play chart/wrist band thingie make me chuckle.

Take it up with them then.

It looks like an i-pad or a small tablet. Could even be the new S-6, those things are huge. Personally I don't give a fuck.

I'd probably accelerate if I saw Ben in a crosswalk, and I would enjoy seeing him swing for some thing, but that's pretty clearly an armband.

Except it's not clear.

Again I ask, shouldn't they just ask to see his cell phone, if he didn't do anything wrong he should have nothing to hide right?

Maybe, but in no way is it clearly a cell phone or tablet either.

Maybe, but doubtful.

Maybe Goodell called Roethlisberger before the game and said: "Yo, Benjie! You know what would be totally fucking hilarious? During the game on Thursday when the cameras are on you, you pull out your cellphone and play with it for a bit and then act totally suspicious and shit when you put it back in your pocket. I'll have the league come out and say it was a wristband. Patriots fans will totally lose their shit!!"

Does that mean you can see how silly this whole thing is?


No it means I see that you don't get it.

Most Pats fans I know don't really give a crap if it was a phone or not, it's about the hypocrisy of the league office and how it's handled, along with the hypocrisy of the media and how they handle it.

You mean the part where they go after teams/individuals who break the rules and don't go after teams/individuals who don't?

The fucking nerve of those people!

Except for the part where they went after the Patriots and TB when no rule was actually broken. Other than that you are almost spot on.:thumb:
