Does Belicheck just push the rule book to the limit? You are aware that all teams filmed at one time. Belicheck thought doing it from the stands was legitimate. Teams request rule changes based on Belicheck's coaching style. I.E. lineman reporting as receiver's. thoughts?

    3 reasons Belicheat, Belicheat and Belicheat. Didn;t help that he unceremoniously cut Kosar when he was the coach of the Browns.

    People hate on Patriots because Patriots do it right and win. People are strange.

    I was raised to hate everything that isn't the Broncos. So *kitten* the patriots and everyone else in the league.

    This, but change Broncos to Bears :+1:

    linemen have always had to report as receivers if they are lined up in an eligible position. i don't know where that example comes from. anyway -

    there are probably a few reasons to hate the patriots. I don't know if cheating is at the core of the hate. I think it's a fun thing to needle pats fans. While the organization does seem to do things in a manner to have sustained success and that causes the kind of hate that the Yankees, Lakers, Steelers get there are some things unlikable about the patriots. some of it has to do with Belichick's personality, some has to do with the fans, some has to do with the perception of cheating, some has to do with the luck they've had, some of it has to do with Brady and how he handles himself.

    but it's okay. not everyone has to love the patriots. take the hate as a badge of honor that your team is of enough consequence to garner such strong feelings, because I guarantee that there are Jags, Bills, Titans, et al fans that would love to have that.

    and for the record, personally, i think deflategate is a complete joke

    It is always fun to needle Patriot fans, they do tend to over react. Brings pleasure to my life. Besides we all know that Brady had those balls deflated. With those small hands, it is a good thing he has all that money ;)

    It's healthy to hate a random team for no specific reason....

    Death to the Astros!

    Sounds like plagiarism to me...are you sure you're not a patriots fan?

    Nope, definitely a Bears fan. Disappointed is my middle name, and Bad decisions run in my family :wink:

    I have no idea...but as a Cardinals fan who was at the game last week, I'm so glad Brady and Gronk weren't playing. It would have been a bloodbath as pathetic as our defense played.
