OT Karma Catches Up With Cheats
On Feb 5, 11:02*am, Ken Fortenberry
The NFL is a multi-billion dollar business that enjoys an anti-trust exemption. It is certainly within the rights of the US Congress to investigate that business if there is an appearance that it it is not being conducted on the up and up. You yourself have admitted not being fully trusting of the games integrity. That's all true; but the rules broken do not seem to me to have any relation to the NFL's anti-trust status. What the Pats did wasn't fraud, nor were any criminal statutes involved that I've heard. No illegal drugs were involved. It has nothing to do with how the NFL conducts business, only with how it enforced the rules of the game. The Pats cheated. Yeah, it smells bad; but I really don't see the Federal case here that warrants the weight and attention of the Senate. Now, illegal destruction of tapes showing US personnel torturing a captive; *that* would be worth a hearing or two. Joe F. (Is that what they call a non-sequitur? :-) |

The '72 fish... Lets not forget that the entire run that season they played only TWO TEAMS with 500 records... Hey, lets not have the facts get in the way of a good bedtime story...

AKSkim Well not the entire run, but regular season they played two teams that were 7-7 .500. Regular season: Vikings at 7-7 Kansas City Chiefs at 8-6 NY Giants at 8-6 I believe there was one more 7-7 team. In the playoffs: Cleveland Browns 10-4 Pittsburgh Steelers 10-3-1 Super Bowl: Washington Redskins 11-3 -tom |

However they played some other teams that had a beeter than .500 record. See Tom's reply. AKSkim Well not the entire run, but regular season they played two teams that were 7-7 .500. Regular season: Vikings at 7-7 Kansas City Chiefs at 8-6 NY Giants at 8-6 I believe there was one more 7-7 team. Correct: the Jets were 7-7 and the Dolphins played them twice. In the playoffs: Cleveland Browns 10-4 Pittsburgh Steelers 10-3-1 Super Bowl: Washington Redskins 11-3 -tom .......for a total of 8 games out of 16 played against teams that were .500 or better. Hey, but lets not let verifiable facts ruin the ruination of a good bedtime story.... Danl Who, apparently unlike some others, has access to Usenet *AND* Google. |

It's not just "nitwits" who think that the NFL destroying evidence doesn't pass the smell test. so far, I've heard it from Specter and you, so which "non- nitwits" are claiming this? Tom It is true Tom, the last I've heard there might be a senate hearing. Commissioner Roger Goodell is expected to meet with senator Arlen Specter soon. Of course we all heard tapes have been destroyed, but they have the person who did the actual filming for the Pats. How much he talks is uncertain. Since 2007 spygate, new evidence has surfaced on the New England Pats from 2001, filming the Rams workouts. I don't think we've heard the last of spygate...time will tell. -tom This is the most ridiculous waste of time since the politicians started demagoguing after Janet Jackson's boob was revealed for about one nanosecond during a Super Bowl halftime show. We're in two wars, neither of them going very well. We're in a housing meltdown and related credit crunch, and are probably entering a recession. Our simian president (ugh!) has proposed a 3 trillion-dollar budget that guts health care and other domestic spending, while entailing a 4 billion-dollar deficit because we have to fund the endless and futile Iraq war. We're borrowing this money largely from China, with whom we have a huge trade deficit. Meanwhile, Osama bin Laden remains at large and is probably laughing his ass off. -- Cut "to the chase" for my email address. |
