now that bellichick cant cheat. even tho brady is back
You act like no other sports team has ever done it.
Seriously you need to open your fucking eyes.
They won superbowls because of good team chemistry and clutch performances. Not because they had a couple of questionable spy gate issues.
now i know ur an idiot.
belichick was caught cheating, and fined 500 grand. do you understand how blatently of a cheater you have to be for them to be able to slap a fine on you for that? that means they were 100% positive he was cheating. to get that certainty, over about 5 games or so had to study and watch the videotaping guy behind the opposition's bench and visibly see that man relay, by radio, to belichick during the game. Now if you think other teams have cheated in such a way, or even cheated in remotely close of a way to know the playcalling as it is happening on the field, then you better open YOUR eyes fuckhead, because no other team has even been suspected of such an act.
if you still dont believe me, ill be an asshole and just say its not cheating if you dont get caught.
you really think brady is that much of a genius of reading opponent's defense? yes i believe he is an incredible offensive force and much of the reason patriots offense has been so good over the past years is due to his little brain, but i also think going 16-0 as well as winning 2 superbowls has something to do with the belichick incident. however, nobody knows how long it had been going on or to what extent they knew exactly what the other team was doing, but it is the definite reason why the patriots have a little star on the same line as the 16-0 season and superbowls in the recordbooks.
edit: tl;dr : fuck you you ignorant fuck
The only reason he was fined heavily was because of the reaction by many fans and the NFL knew they had to act hard or the public image would be hurt.
Many other teams have done similar spy gate attempts. Whether they would be exactly like the patriots or not, it wouldn't matter, teams have done it in the past. It is common sense that over 40 years of football a team just didn't start to think about cheating. They were the first to get caught.
It is the same way in business, people try to get an edge over their competitors. Whether or not sometimes it is cheating.
Although now that someone has been caught and the nfl has it on its radar, it most likely won't happen because now the teams know the consequence.
You are the one who is ignorant. You refused to believe that people can cheat because the NFL is supposed to have a higher standard? Of course there is a higher standard, but it doesn't change the fact that whenever there is competition, someone is going to try to cheat, whether that person or people get caught is the only question.
You seriously need to learn a little about human behavior.
