OTL Report: Goodell covered up extent of Spygate

Discussion in 'National Football League' started by Sanchize0829, Sep 8, 2015.

  1. All these Pat fans can go to F themselves.

    I'm so god damn sick & tired of their garbage deflections & sheer arrogance. It's either "You can't prove we did anything wrong" or "Everybody does it" over & over again. Anything to avoid even the slightest bit of shame or responsibility. If everybody fricking does it, why are the Patriots the only team to face macro-sanctions for such activity?

    But guess what? All these defense tactics are a big ole sham. They don't wanna face the fact that all those heartwarming wonderful moments that felt so genuine;All those precious rings...It was ALL a bald faced lie. It's all tainted & fake. Now they get to watch the damn truth come out. They get to see the real paranoid self absorbed bitter malcontent BB truly is..and it all comes crashing down.

    No John Madden clip from 25 years ago or quotes from BB's fishing buddies are gonna rationalize the bullshit any longer.

    Have to wonder what this change was for...

    4. The Competition Committee told the Patriots that it will look at the possibility of adding cameras to all goal lines, side lines and end lines. The NFL will discuss the possibility with its broadcast partners.

    this must be being held for people with difficulties with reality or morals..............it's probably a Robert Kraft skimming opportunity.

    Belichick is pressing for it, and I think they're doing it this year in select games.

    From the FAQ's section:

    Q: Are video camera's included with the field passes?
    A: Yes, but they must be returned after the game.

    I actually like this idea. Position cameras down all the lines that will be challenged on replay.

    Also, I think the ref should have called that an illegal formation; or made the defense aware of who the eligible receiver was.

    Not trying to beat a dead horse, but the ref never calls a player eligible, only ineligible; which would be (impossible to cover/extremely difficult to identify)... since we have never seen a receiver split-out, inside a Tackle. (a receiver split out can move freely up the field, much more easily then one that is lined up in the backfield....the defense has to cover that attack.. leaving the middle of the field more vulnerable).

    It's not cheating, it's grey area...I think the ref did a poor job on the field officiating Bill's 'maverick' formation.

    No, they do call players eligible. Usually it's when lineman line up as fullbacks wearing ineligible numbers. But the point we are both getting at is the ref fucked up pre snap.

  10. I don't blame the Patriots for this one. Sure,resorting to whacky formation gimmicks is a bit cheesy but Baltimore should've called timeout or recognized something was out of whack & made a change on the fly.Ravens had the Patriots by the ropes & might've been the better team...they let a gimmick play change the momentum & beat them.

    The sophisticated taping, messing w/ the opposition's headsets,shady equipment violations, patronizingly vague injury reports, & blatant forms of breaking/entering,larceny & various forms of espionage;That's the real rub here. And who knows what ELSE they've been doing or have experimented with. Anybody w/ a basic understanding of law, football & a lack of moral fiber can flip through the rule book & find petty loopholes every which way. But is that really how you wanna operate?Is that really how you wanna treat the sport you claim to be such an ambassador of? Heh...with these Patriot fans I'm not really sure I want the answer to these questions..

    This is what Ernie and Bill have done. Exploit the wording and tempt the letter of the rules and thumb nose at the NFL.

    They should be banned

    I don't think it was the refs that fucked that up, it was the Ravens and they got burned. I give Belli all the credit in the world for this. I see nothing cheesy, nothing dirty and nothing illegal about it.

    Will you PLEASE put your thinking cap on for just a moment (don't worry, you won't have to wear it all day)
    and THINK? How on earth is anyone going to just walk into an opponents locker and steal a play sheet?
    Does every opponent leave the play sheet in the same spot with no one there every Pats home game?
    If you think that's bad, wait until Belichick unveils his new electromagnetic device for altering the path of
    the opponent's balls in midair!

    he's already using the drones in practice and the AI, so whatever he's using tech wise, consider it that he'll push the boundaries because the rule book is not talking about this stuff yet.

    At first I thought you were so insane you'd wear a dead chicken for a hat, but after looking at this Kennedy Assassination photo I'm fairly certain I see Tom Brady's face clearly in one of those windows in the background. I was sent this from an unnamed source.

    I know my team very well, they have defensive issues, bad depth, players on suspension and a coach who is likened to a potted plant...........if you will :p
