What amazes me is the level of faux outrage, and the incredible lack of knowledge of all the pundits and jealous ex-jocks piling on.
Everyone is convinced that ‘Spygate” was about taping the pre-game of the Rams before the superbowl - even though that is a myth.
Everyone is convinced 2psi is enough to change the cpourse of a game - when it is not. I’d really like to know what the actual psi of the balls were. There has been NO confirmation of the ball pressure.
Joe Theisman does a demonstration and says that there is no appreciable difference. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about - but Bettis, and the other choir boys are adamant that it’s some sort of huge advantage - while at the same time saying it’s just a minor infraction... it cannot be both.
The Patriots are going to beat the Hawks. It’s probably not going to be as close as everyone thinks, and anything less than a massive facial damage will still not be enough for me.
The one’s that squawk the loudest are, no doubt, some of the biggest cheaters to ever play the game.
It was leaked to a sports reporter that 11 of the 12 balls were at 10.5 psi, with the 12th also below the legal limit of 12.5 psi.
