Then they turned around and did the exact same thing again. Clearly they believe the rules aren't meant for them. They haven't learned a thing.

I've read sports writers comments that this head start is why the Seahawks looked so good in the preseason.

If cheating is a reason not to be allowed to play in the super bowl, then they need to find TWO replacement teams. Or maybe since cheating in the case of the Pats hasn't actually been proved, it's the Seahawks who shouldn't be allowed to play in the super bowl.

That would be perfect cuz cheating is cheating. I knew my opinion wouldn't be popular when I posted it, but I've never tried to post to be popular. I'm not stupid enough to believe some random ball boy let the air out of the balls without being told to. And we all know the Pats have cheated in the past and been fined and punished. They just got caught again. Probably all the teams cheat in some way or bend the rules a little, but to do so in championship games and get caught, brings it to the forefront more. It's wrong no matter when they do it.

I've never been a Pats fan, or a Seahawks fan so it really doesn't matter to me who wins. It just supports the notion, of the more money you have the opportunity to make, the more corrupt you become. GREEDY I guess is a better word.
