| New England CHEATING.
Ok, so it's pretty obvious now that the NFL has determined the New England patriots were caught on tape, so to speak. I can't be the only person who thinks they should forfeit that game against the Jets, am I? ESPN is talking about draft picks and shit - Fuck that, make'em forfeit the game they cheated in!

Why take it out on the players then odds are they had nothing to do with it.
I would suspend the coach or fine him or whatever, but to take it out on the players is bullshit.

Well, if the players are upset about the cheating their coaches did - Who should they get upset with? They've no one to blame but the coaches (if they had nothing to do with it).
This isn't even a case of it POSSIBLY being cheating, or rumours about, or speculation of, circumstantial evidence with - PFFT. This is cheating. Draft picks? Granted it's not the worst of the worst when it comes to cheating - And the Patriots probably aren't the first or last to do it, but they got caught! One game. Just the game they cheated in, no more no less.
But draft picks and a fine...Just getting off easy, if you ask me. Forfeit the one game, and move on.

Honestly - Even if they were the worst team the-fuck ever. I've been hearing that name tossed around almost every time a player thinks up a new place to call home. A high Ricky Williams? T-T-T-T-T-T-TANK Johnson? Hell yea.
...What in the world's an ARGONAUT? OH, WHO CARES. COULD BE WHAT GNOMES POO, OR GARGOYLES PEE. Either way, I'm for THIS plan.

Yea seems pointless to take away draft picks only hurts players. Not the team. Big fine & Suspend the coach for a few games.

Wasn't Nick Saban busted for doing something sort of like this last year against the Patriots. I remember he did something involving "stealing" Brady's audibles, can't remember exactly, some people were pissed but nothing ever happened.

Suspend Billicheck for 4 games and take away a 1st round draft pick. They could even make them forfiet the game on top of that. They need to make a serious statement out of this so that teams feel the price of getting caught is not worth taking the chance.

I find this bizarre, because we are talking about defensive signals, which are done out in the open. If the NFL wants to stop this from happening, give the DC a headset linked to the defensive captain that calls plays.
Problem solved.
