Oh, okay...thanks...
I don’t follow the Pats that much.
Matt Walsh can claim anything he wants, as long as he prays to God almighty that Tomase keeps his mouth shut.
There are always risks involved gambling.
No sympathy here whatsoever.
Caveat Emptor
We have another nomination for post of the year. You have it exactly correct. Well said.
Were any closed practices and if so, who let them into the practice? As I said it’s probably not illegal, just against league rules, but it’s the Justice Dept’s job to find out if there is a possibility, not congresses.
“I was at a Texas Rangers game last week and I swear the outfielder for KC gave me a hand gesture.”
A couple years ago I attended a Reds/Indians game in Cincy and I sat in a seat near center field. Ken Griffey Jr. made a lame attempt at fielding a looping fly ball and I verbally expressed my opinion regarding his lack of hustle and large salary. Mr. Griffey expressed his opinion by turning to me while grabbing his crotch with his glove and flipping “the bird” with his other hand. The Cincy fans were shocked.
Much to my delight CC Sabathia, pitcher for Cleveland, ripped a homer over Jr.’s head a couple innings later.
You must love Tom Davis!
F- “those people”. They should choose a different past-time. You’ll garner no sympathy whatsoever from me for gamblers.
I’ll say it one more time: We are talking about a GAME, here. Get over it.
Allowing stock manipulation and bank robbery would be seriously deliterious to the survival of the nation. If the NFL went away tomorrow there would be a bunch of weeping, whining and carping from the “fans” but, apart from a mild and temporary increase in the unemployment rate, it would have NO effect on our viability as a nation.
LOL, not my OX, pal. I'm a BIG BLUE fan and unless I've been dreaming all these months it was my team that gave yours the ultimate payback all in one stretch of just 3 hours. Not only did the cheating Pats lose their perfect season they lost the SB in addition.
There's nothing flimsy about cheating not once but as it now appears on 8 different occasions. My team won and did it fairly, yours lost despite confirmed instances of cheating without which they very probably would not have been there in the first place.
Anything less then 12 wins and a league title next year sends the teams public image straight down the chute for the foreseeable future.
If it gets her out of State, then I'm all for it.
But I love Goddell's personal character policy. I was disappointed with the way he handled the original punishment, but maybe he can rectify that mistake now.
Was that wrong? Should I have not done that? I tell you, I gotta plead ignorance on this thing because if anyone had said anything to me at all when I first started here that that sort of thing was frowned upon...
The 2002 AFC championship game had two Patriots interceptions on crucial 4th quarter Steelers drives. Almost like the defenders knew where to be before the pass was thrown. I was blaming Kordell Stewart back then, but this makes you wonder...
Oh yeah.
He’s grrrrrreat!
Anti-trust issues.
Way to reach, dude.
It's a 12-Step program. The first step is to admit there is a problem. The problem? The Patriots were caught cheating. Not just once and not just twice. That is what will live in the minds of football fans for, at least, few more decades.
Admitting the cheating won't make it go away, but it'll make it a little easier for Pats fans... somehow. At least, that's what they say.
Good Luck with that. ;-)
Post of the year?
Everyone else cheats, so it’s OK if we cheat.
Yep, a shining example.
You didn’t mind him acting as Roger Clemens’ attorney?
