Thriftygamer83 Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 -Every team Cheats (Richard Farrelly Pr cop out line, yes that Farrelly in league with John Connolly, James "Whitey" Bulger, and Kevin Weeks) -They literally never cheated -Punishments should not have been made public -Kraft never cheated on Myra -Simple Shem should focus on how Jew's are treated in Russia (Ziehm is the family name used to be Shem they went that deep) and not discuss American football -Keeping Hernandez closeted kept his head in the game (Farrelly and Kraft kept his boyfriend silent) Win or lose I hold my head high knowingly they'll always be a ketchup stained team. As a Boston sportswriter told me it'll always be there and the fan base will be completely toxic to defend it. No matter what's done on the field New England will never be able to even begin to cleanse itself of. Every title and accolade comes with that. 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generic_Bills_Fan Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Isn’t it common knowledge that the owners knew the real extent of spygate and goodell bullied some owners to release statements saying they were pleased with the investigation lol that’s why deflategate blew up because the owners were like one more f*ckup and we’re gonna lose it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl2526 Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 As long as the present regime (including Kraft and Belichick) is in place, I think we can be assured there will be scandals, and the league will tend to look the other way when it can. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, we've even got a Coach who caught them cheating and gave their video guys the business and they were grilled by law enforcement for trying to do walk throughs how sad and inexcuseable is New England?

When money and fame is to be had, everyone is cheating, just to different degrees. Sure we call it "getting an edge" or whatever is clever. No team is completely clean, so yes I do think it's a huge waste of time worrying about the successful cheaters. I'm sure I'll be told plenty of teams don't cheat and play by the book 100% of the time...and I'm the ignorant one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToGoGo Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Has there ever been a "Pats cheating" post on this board that hasn't been downvoted by some "Bills fan"? Weird. Nothing gets some fans out and about like defending the Pats or reminding Bills fans that we are not and never will be good enough. Stockholm syndrome? Fake fans? Addiction to suffering? "Realists"? Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If one wants to discuss cheating in a vacuum, I think that’s fine and totally fair. If it consumes someone and they can’t get over the cheating Patriots etc then that’s definitely a waste of time. In the grand scheme of things I agree with you fully, but if we’re engaging in discussion on this particular topic, then whether it’s ultimately a waste of time as viewed within the scope you’re taking this is an unfair tactic imo. Basically a totally different argument on how much sports should factor into what’s important in somebody’s life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Building on my post to someone else, if we’re viewing this organizational and systemic cheating by the Pats on it’s own, I think everything you’re saying is on point here. The question becomes should we just ignore cheating in pro sports and similar because it’s just not ultimately important in life? One could argue it’s critical to address these things because it plays a role in how our society functions. Every time we decide to sweep something under the rug, society gets a little bit dirtier.

I still maintain all teams cheat though, so it is only relevant in discussing how/how badly they cheated. Not even a question its not that important to anyone's life besides if your involved directly. Just at a point you know every team is guilty of something, we only focus on the ones who were wildly successful with their tactics, as they are at the top. (Not true about NE this very moment, but they were at the top so long people still treat them that way) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
