    Fuck Tua

    B. Young is going to wake up every Monday in pain.

    CJ Stround might actually be broken in half behind that Texans line.

    Flutie was like a ballerina.

    Also, what defines "finding success" in this context?

    I'm petite. 5'2", 112 lbs, can't throw worth a shit. Perfect. The Jets should sign me and overpay while they're at it.

    Flutie is a given. My favorite Flutie story - because it's nefarious - was when he was playing for the Cheats. Dan Le Batard called him up to "investigate" rumors that signals were being pumped into his head set and also coversely that signals were being jammed.

    So this is why it's a rumor and why you should love it like I do. Supposedly Flutie slipped within earshot of someone on the sideline about it. Hey, that was off the record, don't misread kind of thing as Flutie's slapping his headset complaining.

    Well, said person dimed to Le Batard and Flutie was furious. Le Batard finally got him to pick up the phone one day. "So, is it true about the headset thing? Anonymous source and all that about the Patriots cheating, c'mon, is it true?" Flutie cursed him out and hung up in his face.

    Yeah, well, the lady dost protest too much, methinks. That's a story @The Waterboy can regale his grandkids with one day! So, OK, as stated, a rumor; but whenever something sketchy is in the wind the Cheats are somehow always in the building.

    Hahaha, Holy Shit, not EXACTLY the version of the rumor I heard about Flutie and the Cheats, it's a variation; but yep, it's still out there. I'm dying right now.

    "Apparently our old friend Doug Flutie implicated the Patriots in using an
    additional frequency to send signals to Tom Brady after the normal
    transmitter should have cut-off. Dan LeBatard first brought this to
    attention. As per Flutie, he picked-up the wrong helmet and heard a voice
    telling Brady what was coming. When he asked about it, the team told him
    to drop it.

    I've heard about this but had no proof. And Charlie Casserly mentioned
    earlier this year how a defensive player last year was caught being mic'd.
    Now there seems to be some proof. And would you doubt that the Patriots
    would do this?

    Amazing how far and fast the Patriots have fallen. At this point it might
    not take *real* evidence to make most people believe they cheated all
    through their SB runs. Although I hear that the evidence *is* coming.

    But everyone does it, right?"

    LMFAO. I don't give a shit, there is some kind of truth to this in whatever form. The Cheats don't get the benefit of the doubt, no way. Anyway, not meant to derail, this just scratched me where I itched and I had to share. As you were.

    Being coached pre and post snap during games may have contributed to Brady's early success and development.
