Well s**t now we have asterisks.... Honestly who the f**k didn't back then? TO had to have some on when he caught The Catch 2.

s**t, we should have, but I think an entirely flat ball would have been too noticeable
Hell, even then he would still let it catch him.

You are right just like any news it gets old n ppl eventually stop talking about it. Right now its the hot topic but eventually it will die down.

I still think it's funny that NE feels like they have to defend theirs. That in and of itself speaks volumes. I will give them credit for perfecting the salary cap era, but let's not act like they are close to being on par with any of the other dynasties.

He didn't get that free pass because he couldn't be "controlled" by the authority of the media....so they chose to crucify him. They do that with a lot of superstars....

The old gloves were slick. Stickum spray gives no better advantage than the new Nike gloves that have a built in grippy surface.
Everyone used stickum back then, and everyone gets grippy Nike gloves now.
This is a non-story to everyone but desperate Seahawks fans looking for ways to lash back at us.
Jerry really should just STFU, because hes just inviting critisizm for no reason, but ultimately nothing he ever accomplished was because of a spray.

Edit: Looks like we already got a scathing critique from Florio haha. Anyone wanna take bets on how long it will take for Timmy K to put out a piece?
He's too butt-hurt over the Dubs loss to ATL last night. Give him a few days.

So was what he did illegal or not? Nobody seems to be able to give a straight answer.

It was illegal to add a foreign substance to your hands or gloves that would aid in catching the ball.
But everyone did it. So was it illegal? Yes. Was there an advantage over anyone else? No.
