Great point; I mean, they've only won a paltry 100+ games since then.

Their winning percentage is higher after spygate than before. How do you explain that?

As a Ravens fan, I ask why is it that winning a Super Bowl is the only measure of success? They've broken NFL records and went to 2 more Super Bowls since Spygate... They have had, by most standards, a lot of success since Spygate. This attack seems offbase.

Then shhhhhh! Your team is better! Though if there is any justice, Richard Sherman will miss the game with a fractured swagger bone.

... The pats don't control the colts balls...the colts did...

Brilliant analysis.

Wow, you are totally right. Because taping defensive hand signals == the absolutely never proven or seriously alleged "taping opponents' walkthroughs and practices..."

Yeah, they just won 17 straight games the season after. But they lost one game, so that's proof it was effective.

Die hard Colts fan here. Still licking my wounds from yesterday. And I totally agree with 1-3. They might have gained some tactical advantage, an inch in a war of inches. But come on. I also don't believe taping should taint their legacy. Sure you might have a few glimpses into the chess game part of it all, but…

balls are switched

This is so fucking stupid.

Yeah, a deflated ball didn't help LaGarrette Blount find numerous holes in the Colts' D to slam through or help the Pats' own defense repeatedly shut down Indy's offense (who also presumably would have benefited from deflated balls, if indeed there were any).

Do deflated footballs make Colts players drop passes, make their defense unable to stop the run, and make Luck throw two INTs? Because that's why you got beat 45-7.

Football? No fucking way unless you have duckets to burn.

In the age of DVR, Sunday Ticket, Red Zone, etc....

I talked to him last night. Jim is an old family friend.

pretty sure it's still just 2 points whether or not he posterizes someone

I think you're reading way too much into people's fantasy lives. I can't speak as a man (because, you know, I'm not one), but I enjoy power play scenarios in my bedroom and it's certainly not because I hate myself. I have no idea why what I enjoy turns me on but it's not motivated by self-loathing.

Because it's about power, not sex.
