I feel Roger should step down before he further embarrasses the league.[/QUOTE]

I agree but it sure would be nice if Goodell had to hand The Super Bowl MVP to Brady right after he handed the Patriots their 5th Lombardi trophy!

You are absolutely right on that. I agree.

Final ruling is to be made on Friday, Sept 4th by the judge.

But the felons aren't cheating during the game like Brady did (and he and his team have done in the past)!

Every professional sports figure that has ever played any game has always had some preference for something. Baseball pitchers rough the ball up for 5 minutes before using it. Golfers have to have a certain ball or grip or something. Basketball players have to have a ball that bounces a certain way. Hockey players always want some special tape on the stick.

And so many times those "special things" are on the very edge of what the legal limits are.

The league is sick of Brady winning all the time and want to find something, anything to find issues. I hope the players associan wins and Goodell goes bye bye.

There is no evidence that Brady has cheated. In addition, there is no evidence that Brady has cheated in the past. What the Patriot's organization has done in the past has no bearing on the current situation. If you disagree, please post actual facts and not your opinion.

No opinions? Kind of defeats the purpose of a forum.

Opinions are certainly welcome, and frequently enjoyable to read and comment upon. Facts, every now and then (or as often as possible), provide the basis for expansion of one's shared knowledge base.

Maybe for you. I prefer to deal with facts.

It's a good thing the Patriots were playing with a deflated ball in the first half of the colts game, because if they were playing with a regulation football the score would have been 90 to 7 instead of 45 to7. Seems a lot of people hate a winner.

Or another way to say it: whiners hate winners.

Also, the ball was handled by the officials every down and they failed to notice anything.

This whole procedure is absurd. The fact that Goodell acts as the arbiter is ridiculous. But, as absurd as it sounds, this is what the NFLPA agreed to. Brady and the Patriots may have a problem. I thought that it was an open and shut case, but this judge could rule in favor of the NFL based on this bad agreement.

If that was meant to be a pun (the way things leak out) you are brilliant,lol.

It is a badge of honor for all Pat's players and fans to be so hated. Can't out work us, can't out smart us, and certainly can't beat us, so the haters resort to accusing the greatest team in football of cheating with absolutely no facts to back it up. Keep it coming!
