MattM Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I'm trying to conduct a poll of sorts (informal though it is). What would your reaction be if (a) Walsh comes forward and has a copy of the Rams SB walkthrough and (b) the Pats claim for whatever reason that Walsh was acting alone and they had nothing to do with it and © the Commissioner does not punish the Pats or punishes them leniently. Would this make you angry or would you abide by the Commissioner's decision? Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthWesternBill Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I share your curiosity on the matter. However, this board is probably biased to a degree that ruins any "collective" opinion that you may be after. That being said, An * next to any reference to this team in permanent records would satisfy me. So long as the fans who have been so arrogant (not completely their fault, I mean wouldn't you be?) have to wait for a new winning patsie team to be arrogant again, I am fine.

Beerball Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 This isn't an official unscientific pole, so I am unable to answer. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM Posted March 27, 2008 Author Share Posted March 27, 2008 I share your curiosity on the matter.

So long as the fans who have been so arrogant (not completely their fault, I mean wouldn't you be?) have to wait for a new winning patsie team to be arrogant again, I am fine. By bias, do you mean because we're Bills fans (i.e., in the same division)? What I'm trying to do is gauge the attitude to such a scenario of fans of teams other than the Pats--any fan of a team other than NE may (or may not) have some bias to the Pats, but considering the nature of my inquiry I'm not sure how I remove that from the equation here......

MattM Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 No takers, huh? Just a simple question, looking for some simple responses. No need to write a treatise, but I am curious about which direction folks would go on this.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomerjamhead Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 No takers, huh? Just a simple question, looking for some simple responses. No need to write a treatise, but I am curious about which direction folks would go on this.... a) Wouldn't care. b) Wouldn't care. c) Wouldn't care. d) Give it a rest already. Why waste your energy on this? Go spend some time with your kids, or take a walk with them and the wife and the dog. Why obsess over something the league is going to do nothing about? I hope my answers are simple enough for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plenzmd1 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 i am pretty done with this thing. Damage to the Pats rep is already done. But, I, as a rabid Bills fan, would believe that walsh did this on his own unless it can be proven without a doubt that Belicheck knew about it, and used it.

Johnny Coli Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 I'm pretty unbiased on this subject. I'd be rip-shiit, and would call it a sham. You cheat in other sports you lose your medal, get banned, etc. The whole thing is a charade at this point anyway. Goodell's not going to open up that can of worms.
