i hate it so much when people yodel on about how they predicted such and such would happen way back and fashion it into some kind of apparent posting prowess.

 

that said, i totally called four games and said it was the fairest length, so you should all give me respect for it now.

If you continue to poke the bear, eventually you will get mauled.

Why do you guys have such a hard time with this?

The league has tried so hard to ignore the blatant disregard for the rules the Pats show every chance they get.

The fans have expressed fatigue in dealing with these guys and the league had to respond.

I'll give you respect, but I'm definitely not giving you a bottle of 1800.

The suspension could be more.

The fine and draft pick? I think it is excessive. The report pretty much said no one else from the team was involved. Why are they being punished?

Maybe the punishment is a compromise from an 8+ game suspension.

I would argue that the 2 guys that did all this, McNally and the other guy, are a part of the organization. Therefore the organization is responsible. The entire organization doesn't have to be "in" on it for the organization to have cheated.

I think the 4 games is a touch light. But meh. I've said before he should get 6. The money is a token and irrelevant. The draft picks are harsh and stronger than I thought. Don't get me wrong, I like them getting punished and felt they should lose some picks. But a 1 and a 4 tells me the league was upset by this and felt pressure from the public.

They made a statement with this punishment. Teams are on notice. Don't even come close to messing with the rules.

      Ticket Prices

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Fees nowadays are ridiculous. After purchasing concert tickets for my son’s 18th birthday and paying the rest of our HHI trip with 3 other families, I’m shocked at how much they are. Honestly, it’s grand theft. Some is taxes but in a world where everything is electronic, fees should be cheaper. Electrons don’t cost 10-30% of the event.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Nope, that’s not the disconnect. In 2022, our GM knew he was going QB in the 2023 draft. You are talking about risking fans involvement on a team that’s been basically bottom 3 in the NFL from 2018 to now. There is no risk when you are that bad. We were right to want Fitterer to tank in 2022 and get rid of anyone who could bring us big value and extra cap room for future years when we aren’t winning 2-7 wins a year. We knew we wanted a rookie QB so we didn’t trade assets for picks and get a better draft slot so we ended up only getting a 2nd for Burns and threw in DJ Moore plus an early 2nd instead of a 1st, which basically lost us an early 2nd. The “risk” to our franchise’s losing culture ended up being around 4 1sts of total value. Yep, I refuse to listen to the other perspective that lost us around 4 1sts of value. At least our fan involvement is so high that our stadium isn’t chock full of visiting fans since we’ve won so much since 2022. Again, you won’t change my mind that we should have tanked in 2022 and had another 2-4 Browns/Horns on this team.
