If you want to get a beer over a B's game, I'm fine with that. Everyone I've met IRL on this board has been legit. Super Bowl not going to work for me.

Will the Pats ever win a Super Bowl without cheating their asses off? Nope. What a shit franchise.

How dare you call them cheaters. They're not cheaters, right azeth? So why don't you take burnem's bet since there's no way any punishment will be meted out?

Both those bets are retarded. It's going to be somewhere in the middle. Hopefully they lose some real picks and not like a 6th or 7th rounder.

I miss when we had to deal with pages and pages of talk over the non call in the Cowboys/Lions game. This deflated ball shit is just retarded.

What I really want to know is what do we KNOW as fact. Not "reported by ESPN" or information from unnamed NFL sources or insiders or whatever... what are the documented and verified facts.

Questions I have.

1. Since the NFL has confirmed the footballs were deflated, by how much? Is it 2lbs? .2lbs? Where is the information coming from?
2. Have the refs confirmed that they weighed the footballs before the game?
3. Did the NFL test the Colts footballs as well?
4. Was this prompted by a warning from by the Ravens to the Colts as reported? If so, then why the fake story about the trainer feeling a difference.

Anyone see the guy on ESPN literally crying over this? Was so awkward I turned it off.

If there's one thing to remember is that whatever 'facts' you read in a news article, about 50% of it is wrong.

Let's hope the NFL publishes its report today.

Glad to see Eli brought up in this shit filled thread.

Any news on Sherman's elbow? Will he be 100%?

Seahawks should invite Eli to the sideline for the game. Staring down Brady the whole time. Sign Tyree to a contract as well.

^This. Everyone is so desperate to be first to break a story that they never check anything. What happens is that the initial story is so full of errors that when it finally gets corrected people claim a conspiracy and ignore the facts.
