Which was absolutely nothing . . . and he completely retracted his "allegation" that he "supposedly" never even brought to Tomase's attention in the first place.
Tell me again how the Patriots' big cheating scandal affected the game on the field? You've ducked this question every time I've posed it to you because the answer doesn't serve your purpose---it didn't affect the games in any way.
But you don't care about any of this anyway, so what's the bother?
Brilliant. Simply brilliant. The team and coach is caught, fined and penalized the heaviest in league history for something that has absolutely no effect on the game in any way.
You posed the question once before and I ignored it because you were attempting to deflect something you can not bring yourself to do.
A team gains advantage by getting a more accurate reading of the other teams signals in conjunction with the actual play ran. They get a more accurate reading of tendencies, line-ups, snap counts and the ensuing plays in quicker fashion. This becomes an advantage because the other team is actually following the rules of the game and NOT incorporating this cheating ploy.
Now, oh brilliant one. Why would the greatest mind in all of professional sports waste all that time and effort to employ this "misinterpretation" of the rules" if it had absolutely no effect on the games?
