Agreed. It's Jets fans clinging to anything they can so they can justify the Pats domination. It would be better if we could actually win the division and/or host a playoff game.
No its O.K. to Revel in their failure. Its like the same thing when I watched Dan Marino always come up short. These are life's little gifts. You have to enjoy them because they pass so quickly and then they are gone. Enjoy them with your children and always teach them that its a good thing for New England to loose and loose badly ; Miami as well. So here's to next year and the joy we will get from watching New England loosing again!
Is it not fact that the Pats have not won a SB since they got caught? Sorry man but call me a nutjob but there was something on those tapes or the league would not have been so quick to destroy them. Yeah they beat us but how much does the course of history change if they didn't break those rules? Do the Rams beat them? Do they ever get back to a SB? We'll never know but what I do know is that those bastards lost tonight and watching them mope off the field was great.
Yep, taping the opponents from the sidelines, instead of the end zone or press box like the other 31 teams do, gave the Pats a huge competitive advantage and was responsible for 3 Super Bowl titles. Do you really know how stupid that sounds?
It's a coincidence you are going to here until the Pats win one after it. Did it make a difference, probably not. Have they won a SB since they got caught, nope and until that trend breaks fans are going to bring it up since it really annoys Pats fans. I always annoy one of Pats friends by saying there is Vinateri curse on the pats. Stupid?, of course. But still true.
They haven't won a ring since they were caught, fined, and docked draft picks for cheating. They won 3 rings while they were cheating. I suck at math but I'm pretty sure a + b = Patriots can't win a superbowl without cheating. The Jets haven't won in 43 years, but at least it was legit.
Is that why the NFL didn't fine every other team and take their draft picks away? You Patriots fans are delusional sometimes. The Pats are the ONLY team that was severely penalized for cheating. And apparently they can't win a superbowl without doing so.
How did taping from the sidelines give the Pats a competitive advantage? Was the tape in HD or something?
How many teams have gotten docked a first round draft pick for cheating ? Or had their head coach suspended from a game due to cheating?
Look, you can try and argue that cheating didn't help them, but the facts tell another story. 1) Patriots cheat. 2) Patriots win* 3 of 4 superbowls while cheating. 3) NFL fines patriots for cheating. 4) NFL takes draft picks away from patriots for cheating. 5) NFL destroys evidence of Patriots cheating. 6) Patriots don't win the superbowl anymore. Maybe one day they'll get a legit ring, because as of right now they don't have one.
Apparently their cheating was on the minds of the Steelers last night. Both James Harrison and Ryan Clark wrote tweets about it last night:
I guess EVERYONE here forgot the Namath led Jets were said to have won SuperBowl lll because the Colts QB-Earl Morrall was on the take & threw the game.... just saying, people are always going to hate.
There was also some shady stuff going on during a Rams practice before Super Bowl 36. The '01 Pates were the weakest Super Bowl winner anyway. I think the 2000 Giants were the worst team to ever reach a Super Bowl.
