    Part of the spygate slap on the wrist was suppose to be an apology from BB* for messing with the integrity of the game. This apology was never given. You once again miss the point here. It's so much that they cheated, if you ain't cheating you ain't trying, it's the refusing to admit they are anything but choir boys when accused and in some cases caught red handed. The Raiders were crooked as hell and Al Davis owned. People may not have liked that but it was at least hell of a lot more respectable.

    The Ex Jet thing is just the cherry on top. He's a stupid man. I'm not accusing him of NEP bias, I'm accusing him of being somewhere below the threshold of being considered mentally sound.

    I don't know if I agree with this. Spygate was hardly a "slap on the wrist" for filming the sidelines during a game on TV.

    Please don't include the Raiders with the Patriots. The other insults I can take.

    Maybe, but in my opinion if this was something the O-line could have seen coming, they were the ones that should have protected the QB. I think IKE has a fucking screw loose to punch a teammate over $600. I thought I heard mangold say that it was a surprise, which makes sense in context.

    I dunno, I mean - it sucks as a Jets fan I'm sure, I'm not sure anything could have been done to stop it. The coach is new, camp is fresh, everyone must be on edge and tired. I'm not sure what to think about it other than the only thing that should be on any players' mind who is getting even the league minimum and trying to make the team, is winning and that has to be a distraction. I can't believe the Bills claimed him.

    Ok, let's try another example. Hulk Hogan circa 1980's "Take your vitamins and say your prayers brother" all the while he is snorting coke and banging anything that walks. This is Kraft and "the Patriot Way" the only difference is people can see through Kraft's bullshit and yet he continues to act like a holier then though jackass.

    Kraft is a scumbag, I won't deny that. He's good for the Patriots because he basically keeps his hands off and watches Bill and Tom make his brand, but I can't stand the guy at all.

    Mr. Grogan you are literally the first Patriots fan i have ever heard say that. This is exactly what i'm saying my problem is, people trying to tell me how great Kraft is when so much evidence is available to the contrary. I will fully admit that my respect for you has grown 3 sizes this day.

    Seriously, everything bad about the Patriots started the day Kraft bought the team..the Parcells thing, the Bellishit thing, Spygate, Deflategate...the Patriots didn't have the entire NFL hating them before Kraft and it's not because they have won 4 superbowls either..Pittsburgh has won 6, SF 5, Dallas 5, GB and the Giants 4 each and while those teams aren't necessarily loved by everybody they certainly aren't hated like the Patriots are.

    Many Patriots fans don't like Kraft because he accepted Roger's penalties including losing two draft picks. Of course it was for his own benefit, he chose himself (as usual) over them because he's an owner and thought in the long run it would help the league (ie. his investment).

    It's easy to tolerate an owner when he's teams have gone to 7 SB's in his 21 years of ownership

    OK so there's an ESPN player's survey on Deflategate: did NEP deflate the balls (they said YES), was it a big deal (they said NO), should Roger be disciplining players (they say a resounding NO, like 88%) http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/1...-england-patriots-deflated-footballs-cheaters This comes as no surprise that the players don't want to be disciplined. The Jets singlehandedly prove that they have to be disciplined: with undisciplined players like Sheldon Richardson, IK (who gets a new job with Rex after assaulting a player supposedly by sucker punching him) and Geno (just for being a dumbass). These are the same guys who fought with Roger over Bountygate (which was all about protecting them). The players: they have to be told what to do and the rules of the league and by someone who is willing to enforce them.

    The raiders were rogue, but admitted their cheating. Also art 6.1 in the by laws was out in due to Al Davis always suing the league. Kraft has been violating that article. So this make NE the new Raiders. Deal with it

    It's 100 players. The results: I believe it. Sounds like the way they think.

    Are you trying to tell me members of a labor union overwhelmingly support the union's position over management? Knock me over with a feather. Next you are going to try to argue that sniveling dickless Pats fans overwhelmingly support Tom Brady.

    Gotta love the judge's question to the NFL:

    Berman grilled Nash about why some evidence used in the Wells report wasn’t shared with Brady’s team and asked Nash if there is “any direct evidence linking Mr. Brady to tampering?”

    Berman then added, “Turns out Mr. Brady did better with higher inflated balls than underinflated balls,” according to Brown. “You might say he got no competitive advantage.”

    Hey SG...you coached too? You played and coached football?

    Lol...Im so sorry Im too busy to go after this...but wow bud. You coached and played...and you have no idea about footballs that are....

    Lol...life has been too good lately. No need to go down this road.

    And congrats...you and about 100 other fans up in New England can lay claim to the fact that they stuck with that franchise when it sucked..because boy oh boy....there were enough empty seats to fit every cheat or attempted cheat by your HC and franchise.

    Nobody should be surprised that a front running football "town" is solidly behind a bunch of cheaters...because the New England Patriot fan as a whole is despicable...watch when that team goes back to 500 or worse every year...you will be able to sit wherever you want.

    Only the Bills and Jets have solid fans in our division...the Patriots and the Dolphin fans are a disgrace to the NFL...just watch.

    Berman also grilled Brady on why he thought it was ok to not turn over the texts, and destroyed his phone. His lawyer outed Don Yee as a bad advice influence, then turned and said it was all JJ and JM.

    Berman was doing what i heard was make both sides (or show them, where there case is weak)......so after the public hearing each side for 4 hours in private with him. Guess we'll see by 8/19

    If you're bothered by a question from your buddy, tell him not to ask it.

    I'm glad your life is going well.

    ask the older newpaper guys............it's a Red Sox and Celtics town & Bruins 3rd. The Pats were a step child and came to the fair weather faithful in 2000, but remember.....they'll jump off in no time.
