Hockey has specific rules about the curve of your stick...you can use whatever curve you want until the other team challenges it and the ref measures it...if it's illegal, you get a 2 min penalty...then you are free again...baseball has the spit, grease, vaseline pitcher issue that you get ejected/suspended for. The players in the field use dirt in their glove to skuff up the ball as much as possible for the pitcher, when ump sees too much rash, they change balls. The batters use too much pine tar, corked bats etc, those are fine and suspension worthy... Basketball the ref drops the ball from waist to see how high it bounces up before a game, not too scientific?? All the rules are bent and broken...Pats did it and got caught...they aren't the only ones that do it but they got caught and will be made an example of...it sucks. If this is such a big deal, why doesn't the NFL provide the balls? Why does the home and away team bring their own balls to a game? Seems stupid to me...this isn't bowling...everyone should have to use the same ball provided by the league...
