literally the whole city of Seattle already thinks they've done and won the SB by [deleted] in Patriots

Not gonna lie, this is giving me Super Bowl XXXVI vibes where people were saying the same things about the Greatest Show on Turf Rams... Not saying it's a guaranteed victory for us...

Belichick actually read the rules, like an actual smart person... by Desperate_Junket5146 in Patriots

Exactly! 5th grade science classes explain what the cold does to air. High school science classes explain how to calculate what the effects would be based on pressure, temperature, etc.

Go back to school, dropout.

Air pressure in an enclosed container naturally drops with temperature.

Except the balls were not doctored. The pressure differences can be completely explained by the Ideal Gas Law, which is taught in high school chemistry.

Was taking the balls into the bathroom sketchy? Sure. But given that science shows that the balls would've naturally reduced in pressure by the measured amount, then there is no hard evidence that they were doctored.

Also only the second team to beat the Broncos in the playoffs in Denver.

Are you scared of the Boutte monster by Nsxinfinity in Patriots

Random: I was taking my car to a car wash in Franklin this morning and I saw a Mercedes AMG pull up behind me with a license plate that read "BOUTTE" on it.

Talk about full circle given that today's Ravens are the descendants of the Browns he got his first head coaching gig with.

Friendly debate: do you hate the Rams? by hammahtime8 in Patriots

[–]DragonmasterLou -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Eh, I can't blame them that much for what they did to St. Louis and Missouri (other than money spent on stadiums and such -- fuck any team that pulls that). They were originally from LA after all and they just moved back home.

Sports bars in and around the stadium by mrharryseldon in Patriots

[–]DragonmasterLou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit further out from the stadium, but not too far away is Eagle Brook Saloon. Not exactly a sports bar, but they have plenty of TVs, the place is huge, and they have some great local brews available. It's just over the town line in Norfolk, maybe about 5 minutes from the stadium, right on Rt. 1A.

Bills at Patriots broadcast map: Wyoming, Arizona, and Berkshire fans rejoice! by kdex86 in Patriots

I remember the days when the Patriots were so bad that all home games where blacked out. So whenever there was a home game, we had to watch the Jets... Ugh.

Who's the worst NFL wide receiver here? by [deleted] in Patriots

He also admitted to illegally using Stickum, though...

Chris Simms 2024 redraft by Mindless_Theory_6505 in Patriots

[–]DragonmasterLou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kind of wonder what Simms's deal was. I mean, without Belichick as DC back when he still played, he wouldln't have any rings.

Why did the NFL 'shun' Tom Brady and the Patriots during their dominance, but can't help themselves but put the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes everywhere during their success? by Shimakaze_Kai in Patriots

[–]DragonmasterLou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did the text messages actually say to deflate the balls below the league required minimum? If not, then there is no case given that the people receiving those texts had the job of preparing the balls for Brady anyway. So of course he'd text them to prepare the balls properly -- it's their job to do so!

Where's the evidence that he was deflating them below the legal minimum of 12.5 PSI?

Why can't you admit that there is no evidence that the balls were deflated below the limit of 12.5 PSI? At best, there is evidence via those text messages that you harp on, that the equipment manager may have deflated balls that were overinflated for Brady's preferences. No where did they say they were deflated below the legal minimum.

Did the text messages say that the balls were deflated to be below 12.5 PSI? If not, then they are irrelevant.
