The Patriots have been cheating since the AFL/NFL merger.
Every year it's something. Back in 2001 it was the Tuck Rule, further than that it was the Snowplow incident. These are just a few but the most famous besides deflate gate and camera gate.
Just to further clarify the idiocy of this comment, the Patriots have been a team for 75 years and the only examples of cheating that you can come up with are:
- A correctly called rule in a playoff game which was made by the referees, not the Patriots.
- An incident where the opposing team was offered the same advantage and declined it.
- An incident where the team was punished for the location they were taping from (not the taping itself).
- An incident where the NFL lawyers have admitted, in court, that they have no proof anything even actually happened.
Interesting.
The cheating began in earnest after Bilicheat came.
True, but they have been cheating since the merger.
How so? Specific examples would be SWELL.
Obviously you have not read the ESPN piece. It details everything from stealing playbooks to filming other teams signals. Former NE employees were interviewed.
When teams play on Foxboro, they have to lock everything up and post guards to keep the Cheatriots from stealing play information.
Bilicheat had basically had Goodell in his pocket, up to this point. The other 31 owners are tired of the Cheatriots and their antics. READ THE ARTICLE!....if that is possible.
