I’ll settle for an asterisk by the 2014-15 season results indicating that Patriots title that year was aided by cheating in the semi-finals.

May have been aided. Not a Patriots fan at all (Boston is seriously threatening to eclipse New York as my least favorite sports city) , but the results of that game would indicate that either deflating footballs is WAY more effective than anyone would have imagined or the Patriots really didn’t need to cheat to win that game.

Or, instead of tossing the ol’ pigskin, he could try tossing the entire PIG! (Yeah, yeah, I know, footballs aren’t made of pigskin anymore than baseballs are made of horsehide nor typing paper made of onionskin nor diplomas made of sheepskin.)

Most of the points the Patriots scored were in the 2nd half, after the deflated footballs were found out. They would have won the game no matter how ‘full’ of hot air the balls were. The fact that someone did deflate the footballs was the ‘problem’.

Much hoopla over nothing. People go nuts over the stupidest things.

If it was sooooo important the refs should have a lock up cage on the sidelines and they should have the only key. Get over it.

This whole kerfuffle has spiraled out of control. Jokes about it have as well.

Hey, next year, they are going to fill them with Helium.Just Because..
