    The NFL will have set officials at every game now who properly inflate the footballs. That's a guarantee.

    I read in another post somewhere... a poster was surprised that the NFL didn't already elect to do this??? I agree. I thought the same thing. You mean to tell me throughout all of these years... the home team supplied the footballs? What kind of fukking league is this???

    Right because the 2nd place finisher is never declared the winner after the one who comes in first has been caught cheating later.

    Lighter balls would benefit both quarterbacks because of better gripping of the ball

    Then why have rules about air pressure in balls? Just let the home team decide how much air is in the ball.

    Actually, you're right. Such a thing does not happen in college or pro football. Even when a team has to vacate a victory or championship in college football, they don't declare the team that lost that game the winner. They took away the BCS championship from USC in 2004, but they didn't turn around and give the trophy to Oklahoma and declare them champs.

    Doesn't it such when someone introduces facts to counter your ignorance?

    So the Pats are up 17-7 at half using under inflated balls, they switch them at half to the back up balls which are inflated properly and beat them 28-0 in the second half. Media will try to make a controversy out of anything. This is complete BS.

    If Dwayne Allen said that the balls did not make a difference, bald fat gamblers on SBR shouldn't say otherwise

    Why is everyone fixated on the fact that the Pats would have won anyway? That should be irrelevant. They blatantly broke the rules to give them a competitive advantage, hence cheating. Whether it helped them or not is not the point. They clearly broke the rules.

    If a MLB all used corked bats for a game and the team ended up winning 1-0 on 4 straight hit batters should nothing happen to the team because it didn't effect the outcome?

    obviously, the Pats still would've won the game.

    The fact is that they blatantly cheated like bitches and got caught

    Pac it's not really comparable

    we are talking about the Patriots organization that has already been caught cheating on numerous occasions

    the Seahawks organization has never been caught cheating. A couple players failed a drug test
    for what came out as adderal and were suspended...and served their suspension. Brandon Browner smoked weed and got kicked off the team mid-season

    a player failing a drug test is completely different than a team video taping practices or deflating balls

    They were only caught "cheating" once and that was for taping signals during games. There were allegations they taped a walk-through, but never proved. So people can stop saying they have been caught multiple times.

    Everyone got it? Caught "cheating" once.

    The AFC Championship will not and should not be vacated

    The Pats got caught cheating, again, point blank.

    Belichick and Brady just lied on ESPN, and now some random equipment manager will be thrown under the bus.

    No consequences will be handed down to affect the Super Bowl. Goodell will likely stall and wait to make a ruling until after the SB.

    Watching this debacle of lies and finger pointing has been quite comical to say the least. Every analyst on ESPN is hammering Belichick/Brady and calling them out for the lies, as they should be.

    Sucks for that equipment manager

    Yeah an equipment manager just deflated a bunch of team footballs that were approved for play on their own??

    Gimmie a fukkin break here

    Belichick is well known as someone who pays extreme attention to detail and has his hands on everything going on within his organization

    Fukk off and come clean......The NFL needs to do the right thing here

    Ravens also thought ball was under inflated in second half ...stats suggest they could be right N.E. 1st half (15 passes- 5 rushes) 2nd half (26 passes-0 rushes by anyone-2 Brady sneaks up middle .. dont know for but sounds interesting
