I bet Brady was the kid looking at your controller trying to see the play you put in...
So, he's got that going for him, which is Nice...

Shanahan isn't exactly model citizen spokesman, or one of the "good guys" You looking for model citizens in the NFL? not really, but quoting him presents him as such. so what is his word worth?

I guess 1 guy trumps 19 teams. Huh? you don't get it, do you? your team cheated. admit it and move on. obviously the judge didn't care and let brady off the hook. frankly the real issue was the commissioner's ability to mete out punsighents. and, by the way, the verdict in no way absolves tommy boy or the patsies of any blame only that tommy wasn't afforded due process by goodell.

I have no problem with it. Just want them treated the same as other offenders.

Richard Sherman backs Patriots: 'Everybody does things differently'
RENTON, Wash. -- Seven months after his team lost in the Super Bowl, Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman has gone to bat for the opponent.
Sherman, reiterating thoughts that Tom Brady's four-game suspension was too severe, said Wednesday that he's happy the punishment was overturned while downplaying cheating allegations against the Patriots.
"Everybody does their things a little differently, but at the end of the day, it's handled between the lines," Sherman said. "And if they man up and they beat you straight up, they beat you straight up. You can say they knew your plays or they watched this or they watched that, but a lot of times if you watch film good enough, you find good indicators. You find things. So if you're studying the game the right way, you go out there understanding what plays are coming, and you know when the plays are coming. But can you execute? Can 11 guys stop the other 11 from executing their play?
"And at the end of the day, that's what it's about. You can say you stole scripts or whatever it is, but they still have to win the game. They still have to intercept the ball. They still have to execute. Eleven guys have to execute at the same time. And that's what they did, so give them credit..
Sherman took issue with the process that led to the lifting of Brady suspension, but the cornerback said he is happy with the end result.
"It's just guys getting justice, guys not being persecuted for things they didn't do, getting a fair trial of sorts. A lot of times in this league, it's guilty until proven innocent." Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman
"I think it's great for him and great for their organization to have him back," Sherman said. "But it's just guys getting justice, guys not being persecuted for things they didn't do, getting a fair trial of sorts. A lot of times in this league, it's guilty until proven innocent sometimes. And it's good to see guys be able to get a fair trial. Unfortunately, it had to go so long. But it is what it is."
Sherman said he isn't certain whether the Brady case will promote change in how discipline is handled going forward.
"I'm not sure, honestly. Maybe," Sherman said. "But certain things are etched in stone of sorts. Just like players don't like change, neither do owners and things like that, so we'll see.
"Obviously, certain players have been disciplined and re-disciplined. And obviously we've seen how the trials have gone, but I think that amongst a few other things are in line for the next CBA. And I'm sure owners have their own list of things that they want to talk about. But that's a few years away."
Weighing in last month with USA Today, Sherman said Brady's punishment was more severe than for the Patriots as a team, a result "that should bring up some red flags," he said. "But nobody's talking about that."
"Owners can only be fined so much. There's a cap," Sherman told USA Today Sports. "And Brady gets fined [roughly $2 million]. Whether the crimes are the same or not, a suspension is a suspension, a fine is a fine. Game checks."

I have no problem with it. Just want them treated the same as other offenders. The issue was there was NO Precedent for this in the NFL..first time a team was accused, player accused of altering game balls After they were inspected..Roger blew his wad early, as is the case (just ask his wife) ....and fucked up the procedure part...meanwhile Tommy destroyed his phone, don't forget about the deflator texts...the league has rules in place for PEDs and the like, but not this offense, which was planned well by Tommy, to get HIS advantage...I wonder if the league has specifics on say shoes with springs so WRs can jump just a little bit higher than the DBs...just a slight advantage would be OK don't ya think Ff2?

I always executed in practices.... when I knew exactly what play was coming. Coach once sent me to run laps for it actually. Apparently I wasn't paying attention when he said don't jump the play.

Bing, a jets staffer was suspended for altering the kicking ball for the Jets when Feely was the kicker against the Pats. that's a precedent. feely wasn't fined or suspended.

How ironic that the only reason Brady was found innocent and is playing tomorrow is because the Jets cheated and got away with it. You can't make this stuff up.

Things you wont read on ESPN: Speaking on “The Dan Patrick Show” Wednesday morning, former Broncos, Raiders and Redskins coach Mike Shanahan said that when he was coaching, every team was going to extremes when it came to trying to steal signs. “Back then, everybody was trying to steal signals,” said Shanahan. “Some of the best quarterbacks in the league had different cue cards from the sideline — depending [on the] defense or blitz — and tried to do everything they could. They looked at [videotaping] for a lot of years, and came up with a final verdict. I could go back and tell you a hundred different stories.” Shanahan said NFL teams — including the ones he coaches — frequently swept for listening devices, and not just when they were facing playing the Patriots in Foxboro. “We’d have people sweep the locker room for devices,” he said. “It was with a number of teams. The same thing on the sideline.” He did not say he filmed the other teams or used the techniques employed by the Flats. Another attempt to normalize that which is unconscionable.

Gaytriots can lick Roger Vick's taint(they probably do already)....
I actually echo Ragu's stance in "Let's worry about how the fuck our Franchise does THIS year than point fingers elsewhere". I want to get back into the fucking goddamn playoffs!!!
Besides, NOTHING will happen to the Patsies that will satisfy all of us Jets fans. I mean we all know that the one thing we would LOVE to happen(All Patsie SuperBowl Wins vacated) won't because the NFL has a commish who PURPOSELY destroyed evidence(referring to Spygate here) not 'cause of the fear of "damage to the league" but of the fear of HIM getting the boot by a very influential Robert Kraft. I can definitely see that he had clandestine orders to destroy any and all evidence....and come up with a bullshit reason for it.
Anyway, time to just let this go because I want to see if Ryan Fitzpatrick's Harvard IQ will help him NOT fuck up as Jets QB this season.
Pats are cheaters. The End.
So let's have some Jets Playoff Football this season....
