NE has a long and storied history of cheating...the sad part is that they probably could have won a good number of games and maybe even a super bowl or two by playing fair...oh well sort of reminds me of Nixon and watergate.
Patriotgate!!!
1. The snow plow incident against the Dolphins. Actually I consider that episode in Patriot history rather amusing. They we're a pathetic team back then and most likely only a snow plow and a blizzard would allow them to beat the Dolphins.
2. Being caught with a videotape against the Jets this year.
Are there any other incidents that I'm not aware of?
Hardly a long and storied history. But then again the exagerrations that have come out as a result of the spygate incident have been amazing.
Originally posted by Red NightIn fact they won 3 Superbowls playing fair. Prove otherwise. The 4th Superbowl ring to come this year. By the time Brady and Belichek retire the Patriots will be known as the greatest and most dominating franchise in NFL history. And those that hate them will be more bitter than ever.

How many games did Rose have to bet on?
Once a cheat, always a cheat.

I stole tootsie rolls when I was a kid. The guy says, "What are you shoving in your pocket?"
I pulled them out, and he told my mom. I got in a lot of trouble.
Are you saying now I am a thief for life even though it scared the crap out of me and I never stole again?

Originally posted by Red NightWhy stop at Shoeless Joe, Pete Rose, and Richard Nixon. While comparing those to the Patriots is ridiculous I'm sure you can do much better. Why not just compare them to Hitler and Stalin and get it over with.

It just amazes me that people like you want to take this to such extremes. Throwing a World Series in order to make a few extra bucks is so much worse than this spygate issue and its actually kind of creepy that there are people like you that aren't reasonable enough to see that.
