    lol ESPN can't stop/won't stop making up lies. lol at Brady apologizing to these bums. I remember Chris Mortensen tried to claim the Krafts apologized to him a few weeks back as well.

    I'm not gonna defend ESPN's credibility, but OTL is legit and has been for quite some time.

    Revis yes, Browner not so much. They'll just have to score more, which won't be a problem.

    An angry Pats team is not one you want to play.

    I'm just happy the Bears don't have to play them again this year. That game last year was one of the most miserable ones I've ever seen.

    I mean yeah he didn't play too well, especially in the second half. But it would be foolish to just turn the other way to the fact the Patriots knew what plays were coming or had some sort of idea.

    Mostly just trying to mess with redsox, but the Patriots definitely had an edge from spy gate. Eagles players even came out after the game and said it was like the Pats knew what was coming the whole second half.

    This whole thing is utterly ridiculous.

    I give more clout to the Colts saying that the Patriots were hitting receivers within 5 yards of the line of scrimmage in the 03 AFC Title Game than Deflategate, Spy Gate or this game sheet s---.

    I lost respect for one of my favorite players of all time, Rodney Harrison, when he was caught using HGH.

    Anyways...

    Where was the outrage in 2006 when the Dolphins bought tapes of Brady's audibles against the Patriots in a 21-0 win?

    Nobody gave a flying f---, not even the Patriots.

    I remember Brady/Belichick, after the game, saying "you still have to execute the plays" and I remember Zack Thomas and Jason Taylor bragging about knowing the plays in advance.

    And the league offices were just kind of like "Hey, that's football, they executed better:

    FOUND THE ARTICLE

    http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2696227

    "Reaction around the league office was, 'That's football,' " AFC spokesman Steve Alic said.

    "Despite the attention garnered by the story, most league observers dismissed the importance of whatever the Dolphins did and chose to attribute the shutout victory to superior execution."- NFL

    "I stand out on that field every day, as do our defensive players -- who are pretty smart players -- and I don't see it," Belichick said. "If I can't pick it up and our players can't pick it up, with what we know and the opportunity to see and work against each other, I have a hard time thinking somebody else [could]."- Belichick


    God, the f---ing irony when another team does something in comparison to the Patriots. The NFL didn't give a s--- what the Dolphins did. They said it was a NON ISSUE, and that the Dolphins just executed it better lol. Which is the TRUTH.

    If THIS story was the Patriots, people would want suspensions, draft picks lost, asterisks, etc.

    You know what gains advantages? Stick Um, oiling your jerseys, playing dirty (namely the Broncos cut blocks in the late 90's), HGH/Steroid use, etc... THATS what gains competitive edges

    Well the Pats are a high profile, championship team, so of course when they do something it will automatically gain more attention then any other team. I agree that you have to be able to execute with that info, but the info itself is absolutely an advantage. Honestly that's not really the main issue. It's how the investigation, or lack thereof went down, and how Goodell destroyed all evidence of the tapes, with only a few NFL & Pats officials seeing them, then making it out to seem like it only happened for a short period of time when a lot of evidence in that OTL article points to them doing this from the early 2000s. It would also explain why he came down so harshly on Brady for something as stupid as ball pressure. Other owners knew he s--- the bed on the spygate investigation, and this was his way of trying to get back at the Pats & show his lack of favoritism towards them to the rest of the owners.
