The “Everybody does it defense”. Where have I heard that before? Not from anyone with admirable morals.

wow ma’am, get a sense of humor. This is pro sports - everybody wants an edge....every team pushes the envelope.....every team has the gamesmanship strategies. And it’s not just players, teams do it, change the height of their grass to suit their talent versus that of the opponent, loosen or tighten rims, etc.

Every QB plays around with the ball pressure in football too. Brady pushed it too far, and got caught. He played magnificently after the balls were reinflated as well

A lot of athletes, especially top end record setting athletes, lack a bit in the admirable morals department. When you put that much work into learning 1 thing there’s going to be other things you don’t learn. And when the world bows to your whim because of how well you do 1 thing it’s sets an extra barrier to learning morals, a lot of morals revolve around denying yourself things, these guys never get denied anything, usually starting in Jr High. Then we wonder why they’re such jerks as adults.

The page appears to be made by a Pats fan as the ratings for a given form of cheating seems to vary by team, with the Pats getting knocked less for a given offense. None of the Pats offenses are deemed serious.

The Steelers are nailed hard for juicing, and the Patsies get half the knocks for the same offense.

Worthless page.

Very true. But some cheating is expected. Such as holding in football. Is that cheating?
