Ben throws for 6 TD's and loses.
they made a judicial process out of one that was NOT judicial.
I never liked Brady but now i think he's a scumbag. A ******* scumbag. He cheated. In your face cheated multiple times. I agree Goodell is a moron who never should have given him 4 games in the first place, but that doesn't erase that Brady clearly cheated, got caught and wiggled free.
I never root for players to get injured but i am actively rooting to see Brady get hurt. Not lifetime hurt. Something like a broken foot or a torn rotator that knocks him out for multiple games.
Goodell MUST be fired. This man is incompetent and with this loss, he has just been rendered powerless. Nobody respects him. Fans hate him, players don't like or trust him, and i'm betting the owners now mistrust him.
The word was that many owners were forcing Goodell to go after the Pats because they feel the Pats have gotten away or gotten of light on many previous infractions. Now because of Goodell's incompetence, Brady goes free.
What a complete joke. Why is a federal judge who I'm sure has much more important business to attend getting involved with a private entity like the NFL? Then why have rules at all if now the precedent has been set for players to take their cases to the high courts. The NFL has become an utter joke and is being dictated to by people like Kraft and high profile players like Brady. I'm getting closer to putting childish things like the NFL away for good. Its certainly not the league I grew up with, loaded with prima donnas, criminals and drug addicts.
I agree with every single word you said. Love the steelers. But them winning or losing does not phase me anymore. Too much bigger problems to worry about
You guys are crazy. This is going to be an epic beatdown. I wouldn't be surprised if the Pats** score 70.
Do you think Goodell is pissed he destroyed the spygate evidence?
You're an angry little fella, aren't ya Tom.
It's because deep down you know that for the rest of your life every single person you ever meet is going to remind you that your favorite team didn't win a single game without cheating. And that's truly sad, because it's possible that they could have. We'll never know.
The fact is your coach and your quarterback robbed the entire fan base of any real dignity or pride. You'll spend the rest of your life with the burden of the whispers and allegations of cheating. You can deny it all you want to, but you know, I know, EVERYBODY knows those asterix bother you.
I mean any football fan in America associates this symbol " * " with the Patriots. And they will for generations. All because everyone knows your teams cheats. People don't hate the Patriots because they win. They hate them because they have to cheat to win.
I'm sorry for bringing painful truths to light. I know it stings. And I know equally well that you'll drown that pain in beer and false pride in a team that has to cheat to win in a terrible division. But please, try not to be too offended when the rest of the world doesn't drink the kool-aid. We can't all be the mayor of Jonestown.
Just remember... the Pats dragged a lot of officials names through the mud here, and Goodell is incredibly vindictive..and lets also not forget that big money will be on the pats, and Vegas sometimes meddles in those types of games... lastly Brady aint what he used to be... his arm is a lot less strong than it used to be... and even Bad Ds can have good games
I don't understand the bitching on roger here. Don't get me wrong he is hitler. But He tried this time, he wanted to nail the ************pats to the wall but a judge ruled against him.
Sometimes my anger gets the better of me.
A P*ts fan was celebrating a bit too much and ridiculing other folks on a yahoo thread, calling them idiots because they didn't understand the "evidence".
I responded.
Goodell's WHOLE REASON for having total control of punishment and arbitration was to keep things "in house" such as "Spygate" so he could do the necessary housekeeping to keep things from blowing back on the credibility of the league. The owners backed him for the same reasoning. Now, it's come back to bite him in the backside. Don't expect owners to side with him now as they see him costing more money than he is worth with his arbitrary punishments. I'm sure the reasoning behind the arbitrary nature is also to have latitude without having to acknowledge any evidence which might be damning to the brand. The owners and Goodell wanted to have their cake and eat it too. Well eat it boys! A certifiable cheat just made a mockery of your system and now we all have to pay the consequence.
I'm glad Brady is going to play against us OTHERWISE it would have been the excuse heard round the world. Now, if we can just get after him and requisite our own justice, life will fall back into balance.
I think Rog rigged it so Br*dy WOULD win on an appeal in court but it would look like he did something. I think the Pats** are still his favorite team and Kraft is his favorite owner.
