So, is this Deflategate freakout going to affect the betting line?

It's the stats that brought this to a whole new level for me.

the Pats fumble results fall so far out of the standard deviation that unless Bill Bellicheat is the smartest person in the history of the world, one MUST look for another explanation.

that quite simply is what the data presents.

there is no reason to argue that.

now Mr. spartacus will try and opine and offer some hypothesis that the Pats were within the rules because they injected hot air into the balls... thereby technically staying within the rules.

Lets assume for a second this is indeed what happened. Well Bill and Tom are now lying about it. Why would they do that if all they are guilty of is "stretching" the rules?

No one knows nothing??? What an absolute crock!

previous cheaters hiding things from everyone... ridiculous.

Yeah, the article about the fumbling frequency is extremely eye opening. On the other hand, the Patriots lying about it is not.

1. They were "caught" breaking an unfair rule that was put in place by the people that were too stupid to have thought of doing it in the first place. Sorry, but I have 2ERO respect for people that intentionally ignore the context to satisfy their base urges. None.

2. Those are the facts, unfortunately they don't IN ANY WAY prove the Pat's were culpable.

3. This proves nothing other than the Patriots do a better job of holding on to the ball. The argument that "The Pats are SOOOOOO much better at hanging on to the ball that they MUST ber cheating is illogical. Sorry. SOMEONE has to be the best. How being the best proves one MUST be cheating is beyond me...


Really, what you're arguing is that if someone has been guilty of a previous transgression (and we haven't admitted that anyway), then if they're accused of ANOTHER transgression, they MUST be guilty.

Gee, if only American jurisprudence could adopt this attitude, you could save a fortune on court costs.

We could call it the "One strike and you're out forever" law...

1. Well, Brady satisfied his base urges, CHEATING on his pregnant girlfriend.

Belicheat satisfied his base urges, CHEATING on his wife.

And Kraft satisfied his base urges with a GIRL young enough to be his granddaughter.

Good to know that like the rest of us, you have no respect for Brady or Belicheat.

2. Yeah it does prove the Pats* are culpable. The balls were in their custody alone.

3. It is illogical to think so MANY DIFFERENT players did not fumble while on the Patriots* then suddenly do fumble when on other teams if a deflated ball was not used by the Pats*

[better days]

Sun is hot, water is wet, the Patriots* CHEAT, go figure

[CommissarSpartacus]

No point in discussing this with you.

Not if you insist on being wrong...

So, fans of a team HATE RIVALS in their division.

No, dumbass fans with masculinity issues HATE RIVALS in their division.

No, dumbass fans with masculinity issues HATE RIVALS in their division.

NO DUMAZZ, Female fans of the Bills, Jets & Fins HATE the CHEATERS as much as the Male fans do.

Anything wrong with the concept of just following the Ike's and beating the man in front of you... just because you can?

Nothing, as long as you're upfront about what you're doing.

I have no problem with pure emotionalism as long as no one tries to pass it off as intelligent analysis.
