Personally i respect winners just not the cheating kind. To this day it amazes me how blind Pats fans are to the truth, reminds me of the old Cowboys days.

EXACTLY, it wasn't even 24 hours to enjoy, celebrate another championship and trip to the superbowl. it pisses me off.
The stigma of spygate never goes away, now this crap being blown out of proportion will just exasperate anything and everything about cheating and destroy the accomplishments while every yahoo chimes in around the country blasting the organization/coach/owner/QB whatever. Sports fans love controversy I guess, or media does.

They tried that and the QB's all complained up and down, the brand new balls have a film on them and it affects how you can grip it, that is why they now let them break them in.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

What's the bigger issue 2lbs of air or a guy beating the crap out of his girlfriend and dragging her out of the elevator like a road kill blocking his SUV? Patriots are a team the league loves to hate and unfortunately for us, the league as an image issue on not dealing with things, so we are going to be screwed next year for sure.

It really sucks to have such a great year of accomplishments tainted by a NON-issue, deflated balls wouldn't have impacted that game or any other to the extend people suspect. I know it's not going to happen, but boy wouldn't a blowout win for the Pats make a statement to everyone.

At least I got a laugh listening to 105.7 and a paraday sung to the AC/DC song big balls, go listen http://www.wror.com you will too.

After hearing BB press conference statement, it will fall to hearing from TB about his personal preferences, which is where BB left it to play out, IMO. So next up under the microscope will be TB and Josh McDaniels I would think....

The press conference was interesting. Said he has never heard anything about deflating footballs. Kind of debunks the report from yesterday that the Colts reported it to the NFL after the November game. If they did and the NFL didn't contact Belichek it falls into the NFLs lap. Brady will be talking at 4pm today.

He cheated before, he may be lying now. I agree with the sentiment that this isn't on the same level as the systematic stealing of other teams play calls by video. Both teams played with the deflated balls. One team knowing the other teams plays clearly destroys the integrity of the game.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

Every team did the video taping too. It made no difference then and it makes no difference now.
A bunch of drama over nothing .
Nobody cares what losing teams do . This wouldn't have been mentioned if Indy won

this is funny



I heard Seattle lined up with an illegal formation 6 man wedge on the onside kick. therefore we should be playing GB in the superbowl.


Yes the integrity is in question by all the haters out there
any of the nuts comparing this to bountygate are delusional, this is not anything close to hurting any players, more like jay walking if guilty but since it's the ex-cons, the Patriots, it gets blown out of proportion.

I think it is fair to say that if you weren't a Patriots fan, you would be singing a different tune. Actually that goes for most of the people posting on here. You have evidence that every team did the video taping?. Any reasonable person without bias who watched and listened to Tom Brady speak yesterday would conclude that he was full of it. The balls were deflated, someone deflated them, and there is one person who would want them deflated. If air pressure didn't make a difference, he wouldn't have a preference and the league wouldn't have a rule about it. One after another, hall of fame players and coaches are calling them out on it. If it is nothing, or it doesn't matter, or every team does it, then those people have no integrity. The world outside of foxboro is going with Shula, Rice, Dawkins, etc on this. Maybe video taping and deflating don't matter, but then why do it? In any case, there is no doubt that the Patriots are a tarnished franchise.
