Message: [QUOTE="intlzncster, post: 3281776, member: 56"] I'm just looking at facts. That's all I want (and believe you me, most fans of opposing teams aren't interested). Anecdotal evidence is worthless. This is used to explain away their own failure and ineptitude, while justifying their bitterness. And I point out people's hypocrisy with things they do. If people looked at facts, they would have seen that deflategate was a load of nonsense. MIT, Harvard, and various and sundry professors and academics proved this scientifically. But since it's the Patriots, people choose to ignore reality. It is what it is. Goes with the territory. Those ESPN articles (there's one printed every year) boil down to 90% innuendo and supposition; it's always "people say the Patriots do this" yada yada You don't think these teams would turn the Pats in to the League office if they had any proof?? They don't because most of it is BS. I love the one where "our headsets don't seem to work in Foxboro"; what they fail to mention is the NFL itself controls the headsets, not the home team! Saying the NFL favors the Pats would be laugh out loud funny. ESPN "amazingly" and "coincidentally" releases these things right before the playoffs every time. It's comedy. The thing I do have a prolem with is that ESPN erroneously stated 'facts' (which were not remotely true) at the time about both spygate and deflategate which fanned the flames, and made them both out to be much more than they actually were. People still talk about a supposed taped Rams Superbowl walk through; unfortunately, they left out the fact that such tape or taping never existed. The writer who broke the story almost lost his career over publishing the false claim. The NFL has stated as much as well. ESPN was forced to retract, but it doesn't matter. People still believe it, when It literally never happened. They prefer the ghost in the machine. This is what I know: Bill Belichick is in every coach and owners head. They ascribed 'mystical' circumstances because they can't beat him on the field. And Arlen Spector was a diehard Philadelphia fan! After we had recently beat them in the Superbowl. lmao Just another bitter fan trying to rationalize getting pantsed. [/QUOTE]
