If Payton got a year, Bill needs a year to reflect on his misdeeds.
If this was an NCAA team, you would say there is a lack
of institutional control.

Sean Payton got a year suspension. Time to sit Belichick down.

For what? A football can lose air just being out in the cold for a while.... Just a bunch of losers whining and complaining life is not fair after they got beat down!
Are you suggesting that it was somehow colder on the Pat's sideline than on the Colt's?(since all of the Colt's balls were properly inflated...)
all but one of their football lost more than two psi because of the cold?.... did you have an excuse for the spygate stuff too?
Let me get this right..........................
11 of 12 footballs on the Pats sideline lost air because of the cold and on the Colts sideline the 12 footballs football's didn't?
Was it warmer on their sideline? It's not shocking if Belichick cheated, it's shocking if he didn't. The Ravens lost by 4 the week before, you can bet they pulled the same crap with them.

I might get some brownie points doing some honeydoos around the house on Super Bowl Sunday. I dang sure ain't going to be watching the game between hated Seattle Seahawks and the New England Cheaters.

Re: Let me get this right..........................
It is not people whining because they got beat. It is about people standing up for what is right and calling out the cheaters that the Patriots are. The Colts had the same problem with under inflated balls in a game earlier in the year against the Patriots too so don't tell me they haven't been cheating for years. The Patriots can not win a big game without cheating. The Patriots could film every practice in Seattle and heck I think Pete Carol could send his play sheet to Belicheck and the Patriots still wouldn't win this game. Seattle is that good, ask the Packers, Seattle scored 15 points in 44 seconds, the Patriots have not faced a offense that potent or a defense that good all year.

Bill Belichick vows "swift justice" for whoever failed to deflate 12th football
New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick said today that he is just as upset and angry as everyone else is over the latest news about his team, and will make sure there is "swift justice for those responsible."
"I was very angry to hear that 11 of our 12 footballs in the AFC Championship Game were under-inflated," said the coach, spitting out his words in an angry growl at a press conference today. "I gave explicit instructions that all of our footballs were to be deflated by exactly two pounds. I will find who failed to deflate the twelfth ball and they will be fired. I guarantee you that."
Patriots owner Robert Kraft said he has "complete confidence" in Belichick.
"This man cheats with integrity, and I won't let anyone say otherwise," said the owner. "His attention to duplicitous detail is unparalleled. I don't know what exactly happened to cause one of our footballs to be legal, but Bill will get to the bottom of it and we will move forward as an organization to better and more comprehensive illegal activities."
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said he expecting a quick and thorough explanation from the team.
"The integrity of the league is at stake. Again," said the commissioner. "I expect an excuse from the Patriots that is PR-driven and palatable to the majority of our fans by the end of the day."

BREAKING: Patriots Banned from Super Bowl After NFL Determines They Didn't Deflate Balls with NFL's Official Brand of Air Pump
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has announced that the New England Patriots will be banned from Super Bowl XLIX against the Seahawks after a league investigation determined the team deflated footballs in the AFC title game using a Spalding air pump. The NFL's official air pump supplier is Wilson.
"We take our relationships with our brand partners very seriously," said Goodell. "For the Patriots to just willfully ignore our friends at Wilson is not acceptable and they will pay the consequences."
The penalty is even harsher than the one the Patriots received for SpyGate, when the NFL found they were they were filming opposing teams' practices with cameras not supplied by the NFL's official camera partner.
"This is now a pattern of not being allegiant to league brands," said Goodell. "It seems that when it comes to not using NFL partners, the Patriots say: 'Just do it.' Which reminds me, the NFL is proud to be a partner with Nike. You can purchase their great products at Nike.com."
The commissioner then opened the press conference to questions, but put on a pair of Bose headphones and ignored them all.

You never know. The Colts could have had their balls sitting on a warm bench or next to a heater. Lots of possible explanations, unless your are a Patriot hater and
then no explanation is acceptable. It is the job of the referees to keep the balls in
legal order. By Super Bowl, the NFL will have someone keeping an eye on those nasty old balls and their psi. Also when the Colts decided to blow the whistle, they
made sure their balls were legal, except the token ball. How can one ball be low on air and the other 11 balls sitting right beside it not be? I guess Wilson makes a few
faulty balls along the way. Blocking and tackling wins games, not over or under
psi balls.

Colts qb may like his balls warm. Kinda strange that 11 of twelve balls were ok and just one token ball was flatter. You would think all the twelve balls would obey the
laws of physics. Problem could be solved if the cheap NFL would hire someone other that a college kid to take care of the balls. They do for the Super Bowl. I think
Indy has a ax to grind after losing to New England all these years. I could be wrong.

I think you have it backwards; 11 of the 12 balls on the Pats' side were underinflated(only one of the balls was properly inflated...)
That one ball must have been a Colts fan. If 11 ball were low so is the 12. The bad guys would have doctored all twelve. Who knows the Colt balls may have been setting near a heater, they were not being used much. All I know is my car tire pressure
light comes on that first real cold morning. I also know that I did not let any air out.
Blocking and tackling wins football games not low pressure game balls. I am having fun with these posts.
