More Cheating Allegations Mounting for Patriots

What’s all the nonsense hubbub about this stealing signs shit? Good to know that some NFL teams are working with the mentality of a kindergarten! The list of teams that suspect the New England Patriots of stealing signals is growing daily. A day after the Jets called the Fighting Bills out, the Cheeseheads in Green Bay echoed those same concerns about Belichick and the boys! And to think everybody thought he was the best coach in the league…How quickly we forget his cameo in Cleveland!
Okay, so everybody has cheated in some form in their lifetime…So it shows Coach Sweatshirt is human. Although it’s not like making like a couch potato back in the day playing Tecmo Bowl, or for advance gamers Super Tecmo Bowl…Sneaking a pick at which direction the D-Pad was pressed. Guessing whether the "A" or "B" button was pressed in hopes of recording a sack. Not only have the Jets and Packers spit accusations towards the Foxboro brass, but the Bills and Lions have come out and spit the same thing. Although in Matt Millen’s case, not surprising…Whenever he can get off the hook for a loss he’ll take it!
Actually, when I first heard about the Jets crying foul…I thought it was just that, crybabies calling for their mamas! It didn’t really surprise me…Hell, it’s the Jets and Patriots for God sakes. It gives one that same warm and fuzzy feeling that the dynamic duo as Trump-Cuban does…Or O’Donnell-Trump does. I filed it in the same folder as Mike Hart’s guaranteed victory over Notre Dame on Saturday! However, there’s obviously too much smoke here to disregard these allegations in it’s own right! Where there’s smoke, there’s certainly fire… The evidence is piling up day-by-day and we better believe that this is only the tip of the iceberg. Just ask Ron Mexico and his dawgs about evidence piling up on a daily basis! The telling question that has still yet to be answered, here’s a team that has won three Super Bowls in six years…All of which were three point games I might add! Hmm, I wonder?
Now in the words of Smokey the Bear…"Only you can prevent forest fires!" Well, in essence that’s what Green Bay was trying to do when somebody got a little grouchy...
"From what I can remember, [the camera man] had quite a fit when we took him out," Packers president Bob Harlan said. "We had gotten word before the game that they [the Patriots] did this sort of thing, so we were looking for it."
Now I’m not saying this is right by any stretch…However, the one thing which dumbfounds me, (and a lot of shit does) in baseball stealing signs is part of the game. In basketball, every coach listens for calls from opponents and attaches them to a given play. Hockey, the benches are right next to each other…No secrets there. Then why is it in essence the same act which the Patriots seemingly have been caught with their hands in the cookie jar be not only tolerated in other sports, but to go as far as being labeled "part of the game"? Makes you wonder a little, doesn’t it? I’m not saying there’s nothing wrong with New England’s tactics, because there certainly is…I’m just pointing out an intriguing observation of the "code of ethics" from one sport to another.
Oh yeah, and one more intriguing observation…You know the whole spiel about "Cheaters Never Win". Yeah, well there goes that theory!
