Default Patriots being sued for 184 million dollars

Jets ticket holder sues Patriots and coach Belichick, seeks damages of more than $184 million - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

Frankly- I think it's a stupid waste of time for our legal system.

This jets fan needs to just shut up...before someone investigates his pet team (hey, not our fault if he picked a crappy team to like) and finds out that the Pats aren't the only team bending the rules to win.

It's certainly not just the Pats relying on some shady practices. This dipshit is casting stones in a glass house.

But then, the jets suck, so it's possible they haven't bent the rules. It'd be even worse if they that bad AND cheated.

The Pats got caught, but that doesn't mean they're the only team that was breaking the rules.

As it stands right now, in a certain sense, yes the Pats are the only team that was cheating.

Why? Because nobody else has been caught...and there haven't even been any allegations against any other teams.

Fuck New England.

When you're on top, your bound to get extra scrutiny.

BTW, you can file suit on anything, regardless if it's completely baseless.

Well I like New England (being a native son and all).

And as the talking heads say- all the intel in the world isn't completing the passes, holding the run blocking, running the routes. The team is simply better than most anyone else.

It's like NASCAR (sport of the dimwitted) which is so full of cheating and yet still commands legions of slack jawed fans when they're not humping their sisters.

The teams that didn't get caught just think of new ways of hiding cheating. Plus what is cheating and what isn't is a thin line. So you can have cameras on the other team, run live feed video, print off photos that make the NRO's spy satellites look like a polaroid, force coaches to cover their mouths like a mafia don....all that isn't cheating. But one extra camera looking over a shoulder is?

Come on. Not only is it something all the teams do in one form or another- but the league allows spying on the other team to such a degree that there are more people milling about on the sidelines than fans in the stands anymore.

The other teams just sighed in relief it was someone else that got caught and not them.

This is true...when you're one of the best, EVERYBODY has a microscope on you.
