You’ve obviously never played sports. In wrestling and boxing you weigh in before the fight what you weigh during the fight is not measured. So as long as the boxer was a middle weight on the scale the day before the fight and a heavy weight during the fight it doesn’t matter its not against the rules and not cheating. The patriots followed the rules end of story. I mean its not like they were the Mormons they didn’t like the fact that if you have more than one wife you are cheating so they made up their own rules so they could pretend they weren’t cheating on their wife.

Weigh ins for wrestling are often in a.m. hours for a p.m. meet...we're talking significant time delays...

It was in the mid-50s for the 2 and 1/4 hrs between when the balls were checked off by Walt Anderson & game time...It was 51 degrees at game time. Your 135 minutes there doesn't even apply to what you were saying, given that you needed a 40-degree threshold.

Boxing weigh-ins: Hours before...

Doesn't matter...cause not an equivalent argument...

(Doesn't reach your 40-degree threshold)
