The two conference games are rematches from the regular season.

Patriots vs. Rams remains my Super Bowl pick.

That would be great. And hopefully this time the Pats wouldn't get to film the Rams practices. I would call Brady to wish him luck but he may have already destroyed his phone with a hammer like he says he often does. I'm sure that had nothing to do with it containing evidence of his cheating. Just a coincidence. Nothing to see there. Only haters jealous of his invincibility would suggest otherwise. We should take his word for it before he ascends into the heavens in a helicopter to his California dream home.
 
Not defending cheaters, but why does Sean Peyton always get a pass when he was involved in a scheme to purposely injure opposing players?

Thanks for the reminder, I completely forgot about the first time the Patriots cheated; they filmed the Rams walk through prior to the Super Bowl and as a result, they knew every play they were going to run, which is why they won the game on a last second miracle field goal.

I forgot about that one, Marshal Faulk hasn't whined about it within the last 15 seconds to remind me...……...oh wait, he's on NFL Network right now previewing the Saints/Rams game, he just mentioned it again for the four millionth time. Whew, thanks for the reminder Marshal.

Yesterday prior to the game, the Patriots had a moment of silence for the Chargers player whos 1 year old daughter passed away.

What a bunch of cheating scumbags to honor his daughter like that, what a classless organization, I bet Brady was behind it too, he'd be nothing if they did not take .00000000000000000000000000001 PSI out of the football.

Multiple incidents are confirmed throughout the years. And those are only the ones they were caught committing. Bill and Shady have been suspended and fined multiple times. It simply is a fact. Like the Ravens fans who still idolize Ray Lewis, however, the Pats fans feel like they are the victims due to their success. The deflating of balls wasn't such a big thing in the Pats dubious history. It was still cheating but perhaps not Cheating. It was the lying, destroying evidence, and throwing a couple of equipment guys under the bus that forever sunk Brady's reputation. All he had to do was own up to it and apologize. No big deal. It was obvious what happened. He's a golden boy who believes, however, he can't be held responsible for his actions. Bill has multiple instances of cheating including stealing playbooks from opponents lockers.

I'm not a New York Times subscriber...
I can't read the article from the link you posted...
 
Aaron Rodger? And all the other “cheaters”?

Don’t get me wrong, again, not defending it, but if you think it’s only the pats, you’re crazy

Mike, I am and you’re not missing much; Juliet Macur, the writer, likes to go out of her way to be controversial. Sometimes her columns are thought provoking. This one isn’t one of those.

Some people like to just go out of their way to re-litigate this issue ad infinitum. [Insert appropriate eye roll here].

LOL. The argument was made here that the Pats either haven't cheated or the cheating was inconsequential and that they are victims being targeted for their success. That is simply a falsehood. There are multiple confirmed instances in which the Pats have been caught red handed. Here is one that you might like better as it outlines the specific evidence and the NFL's attempt to cover it up:

Wow, that is some journalism on display there, thanks so much for posting that link.


ESPN; there's a bastion of integrity right there, they've got no ax to grind when it comes to the Patriots...…….:rolleyes2:

After reading who wrote that, I really have to admit that I have to do some serious thinking...….."Did I leave the stove on?"...……………….

Good Lord.

Oh and for those of you who don't know, ESPN is the network that "broke" the Deflategate story, Mortensen said several footballs were underinflated by more than 2 PSI...…………….then he circled back and said "Woops, it wasn't 2 PSI, it was .02 PSI", but by then, the damage was done.

ESPN; give me a ****ing break.

Chris, I well remember the NY-Baltimore trio of disaster in 1969. The Bullets and Orioles losses were hurtful but the Colts loss is the one that left a mark that I have never gotten over. To this day I am convinced that if the Jets and Colts replay that game 100 times, the Colts win it 99 times. Morrall played his worst game, by far, as a Colts Qb and Shula never adjusted, waiting too long to replace him. These are anniversaries I will NOT be celebrating.:wink2: -- Al

Yes, 1969, the gift that keeps on giving. While it was a disaster of a year, sports wise, it was also the year I met my future wife for the first time, in geometry class, as a Junior in HS. Got married in 1976 and still are together. So 1969 is a year to remember for me, in more ways than one.:wink2:^&grin -- Al
