So if you apologize for being a scumbag, its ok? They were in victory formation and the Seahawks were upset so they wanted to start a brawl.

Seems #teampatriots are more excited that they were able to beat the Seahawks than actually winning the Superbowl.
Stay Classy Pats!
I guess the NFL can accuse people/teams of probably doing something and it comes across as factSo that's that.

lolololI think you don't quite understand that "more probable than not" is pretty strong words in a legal sense. I'm not a lawyer obviously (kind of wish I was sometimes), so I could be wrong, but I don't think you can make a statement like that without having your ducks in a row. The text messages exchanged between the two equipment guys should be enough for the average person to understand that something was definitely up. The words "more probable than not" are used because there is not absolute proof, like maybe a video camera of the bathroom the ball guy is seen ducking into for a minute and a half, that it happened. For anybody, Patriots fans included, to deny that anything shady happened now is choosing to ignore what fact there are.

I will be the sole defender here vs all the Seahawks and Colts fans, or the anti-Patriots fans.
I dont think you understand how legal terms work either, in the court of law, more probable than not means literally NOTHING. The entire basis of court, especially criminal cases, if thats what we are comparing this against, it has to be proven without a reasonable doubt that they are guilty. Which they are not.
But that chance could be anywhere from .000001% to 99.9%.
2 different officials had some pretty drastically different readings.

I think there is a chance that they could have been tampered with, whether on purpose or orchestrated by a player coach or employee. But that chance could be anywhere from .000001% to 99.9%....The report is a joke, it should have been black or white, either you found conclusive evidence or you did not. Not a probably that leads to being crucified for something that was never proven.

This is not a trial by jury where reasonable doubt means "innocence". At the end of the day the Pats have a cloud of suspicion over all their accomplishments. Was it worth it? Probably since the wins and the Super Bowls aren't going anywhere. I really wouldn't be too proud as a fan but I tend to look at this stuff differently than most people. I know I am in the minority when I say that integrity does matter whether you can prove I did or didn't do something but I digress.
I'm just curious that if under-inflating a ball, or video taping your opponents, or any of the other questionable things they do don't give you an advantage then why risk your legacy and reputation by doing them? See, I think all that stuff did provide an advantage and fans just don't want to accept that their team is a bunch of cheaters. That or you have to accept that your team is pretty stupid for taking huge risks for no reward.
Well this thread is going to be an agree to disagree situation. I also dont want to sound like a baffoon but a person from CO is likely to be a Denver fan which by nature is not going to leave them with an objective view.
