It is beyond me how any fan of the Pats can stand up and try and rationalize or excuse this sort of thing. I guarantee that if it were proved my team was cheating I would be outraged and embarrassed. I guess it is just part of human nature in some people to try and deny the obvious in the face of shame. Maybe you guys can learn from Clinton and his not having sex with that woman. :breakdance:
Their picks? Are these possible surrendered draft picks going to the Jets? We are the ones who got cheated, I hear no mention of that. Just heard surrendering picks. I have also heard they did it in the past, but do they play Green Bay twice a year, or even 3 times, like we did last year?????
That?s all hearsay dude? The lunker is sinking and no matter how hard you Patsies fan paddle in the toilet bowl, you are being flushed...
Yawn. More amateur psychology from someone not remotely qualified to engage in it. Now stop kicking yourself in the ass. That's MY job....
No...ALL of the NFL has been cheated by this. This has been going on for quite some time...it's likely affected several games... Frankly as a fan of fooytball first..I dont care if we get any compensation or not...to me it's more important that the Pats are punished and this is put to a stop!
Jet fans took their medicine from the football world for the way some fans reacted when Pennington was injured. It amazes me how Pats fans can rationalize everything that happens, from the tuck to the weather to mugging receivers. How do you spell tainted? P A T S
ok...I lose... Plus i have to wake up early tommorow and get ready for work ..Ill leave you be in your realm.. Gnite...
That's exactly it.... when you have guys like Schlereth who played the game coming out and saying that the Pats should forfiet the game you know this isn't common practice in the league. It just shows how classes the fans of this organization are, just like the team itself.
Let's see coaches plural.... Ron Meyer 1982-1984 Raymond Berry 1984-1989 Rod Rust 1990 Dick MacPherson 1991-1992 Oh and of course the chicken.....
We're learning a lot about Pats fans today. You know, there are plenty of rumors that people get raped in prison in the shower. I guess Boston's prisons must be filled with guys who just bend over and accept it since "it happens everywhere". As far as the handshake with BB, I'm hoping Mangini looks him straight in the eye, firmly shakes his hand, pulls...and headbutts him in the nose.
I was posting elsewhere about this mostly and I'm too tired to even do a cut and paste job right now, but I will say I've been following it on the radio as well while I was running around late this afternoon. Maybe I'll do a consolidated type deal tomorrow night after work. All I can say for right now is HAW HAW HAW! This is just priceless. And, sitting back and listening to the excuse mongering, it's been fun. I called this a long, long, long time ago. Belifraud, that old coinage fits better than ever on this day. I think I'll go peruse the NE boards before I turn in for laughs. Maybe twist the knife a little - in a civil way, of course.
I don't quite think so. Rather... I am inclined to think that this sort of deal is included in their SOP.
Best I could do on short notice. http://www.thecheezburgerfactory.com//completestore/128340499897656250Imonursidelin.jpg In case you can't see it
I would be interested to see how far this investigation goes. Is it safe to assume that Bilicheck has done this in the past? I think it should go further than just investigating one game.
Ah.. Mom said it's time to come out of the basement and get to bed cuz it's a school nite eh? Nite Nite princess...
Lead story on NFL Network too... NFL networks Adam Schefter say there are several "smoking guns" and evidence continues to "pour in"... "Commissioner Goodell is taking this very seriously" "He is considering fines, loss of draft picks,SUSPENSIONS AND POSSIBLY ALL THREE TOGETHER!!!" Rod Woodson says it's and absolute unfair advantage and an absolute no no. Terrell Davis says the the Patriots legacy is definitely tarnished and that the Pats should be placed on PROBATION like a college team...they can go thru the season but no matter how many wins they have... NO PLAYOFFS!!!! I'd personally love this one... Two more ex-players against the Pats... But according to the Pats trolls "every team does this and it's no big deal"
