Bill Belichick Should be BANNED FROM NFL!!!!!

What are they going to do wait until he cheat his way into another Super Bowl?????? No wonder some idiots think he's a genuis. They dont know the deck is stacked. Who knows what other S#!+ he has gotten away with. BAN HIM NOW. He has disrepected the game I love to much already and its not COOL.....

I am shocked they have found out 11 of the 12 game balls were under-deflated by 2 psi. Sure, it might not have affected the end result of the game, but this is blatant foul play.

Belichick needs to be suspended at the very least. Let him do the suspension after the Super Bowl.

Makes sense why Lane Kiffin is a cheater also!
I wonder if we can trace a coaching tree under Bills and see how many people got in trouble for cheating

Should they not finish the investigation first ? Do we know Bill is responsible, in on or was aware that these balls were a tampered with ?

Not saying he is innocent but do we know for sure he is guilty ?

All I know is this, the 12 games balls were checked by the officials 2 hours 15 mins before the game and they were all fine. And after the game, 11 of the 12 balls were under-inflated by 2 psi. That is a lot, even after driving 200 miles, your tires won't go down in pressure by that much.

banned? lol

lol.....

Exactly. Given what is known to date it is not enough to just start assuming/pointing fingers and handing down punishments. The investigation needs to continue to get to the bottom of it all, then the punishments can be dished out when we know who is and is not guilty.

It's not that serious of an offense. 1 game suspension would do. It's a pretty big game coming up too. Otherwise picks and a portion of the year next year.

That's a little excessive. I'd say let him coach the SB. But take a couple picks, and Ban him 4-8 games next year, possibly even the entire year if the NFL really wants to make an example like they did with Sean Payton.

True, and given the game outcome, most will doubt it made a difference. But he's a repeat offender and the NFL definitely stiffens their punishments on repeat offenders.

It was actually during half time that they realized the balls were deflated, and they inflated them back to league standards for the 2nd half. At least that's what Rich Eisen was saying on his radio show. also this quote from espn:

"ESPN Sports Radio 810 in Kansas City reported that the Patriots' footballs were tested at the half, reinflated at that time when they were found to be low, then put back in play for the second half, and then tested again after the game. The report did not reveal the results of the test following the game. All of the balls the Colts used met standards, according to the report."

either way, i doubt this came from Belicheck, or any other coach on that team. this had to Brady's call if it is true.

keep in mind, QBs generally play in a game with the same balls they used a week, or days prior in practice. so if this true, that would mean Brady was practicing with deflated balls during the week and then had to ask whoever there to make sure those same balls get deflated for that game. pretty much every QB from what i've heard so far (and from prior knowledge) stated that they want to use the same balls from practice. and i bet this holds true for Brady, i doubt he was practicing with regulation balls and then asked for deflated balls during a game.

As the coach he is responsible. I get what your saying but if someone on his staff thought it was ok to do that they must think he is ok with.

If this was the first time he was in hot water ok but its not.

If your kid vandalized something the parents are on the hook for the damage or if an employee illegally dumps some hazwaste the company is on the hook. So maybe it goes higher than Bill.

Like i said earlier Sterling lost his team for comments that didnt even affect the product on the court. Cheating is far worse

Funny how when players smoke pot they are suspended because the NFL wants to preserve the image of the league...

But cheating is just a monetary fine. Cheating in fact destroys the image and integrity if the game.

Shawn peyton got a year also for ruining image of the game.

Patriots get fined and docked picks for ruining integrity of their super bowls.

Lol NFL.

This shows they are more conserned about the league image then the actualy integrity of the game. Lol
