Spygate....

The headset stuff is definitely an issue which seems to get swept under the carpet.

In terms of lipreading, military strategies etc. - well, why not. Nothing wrong with that (as far as I'm aware) in the rules. That's the writing notes on your palm, I guess.

But when it's technology with league-established rules of use... then something is up. Something is definitely up.

 

I remember back before Spygate ever came to light that teams playing the NE Patriots in N.E. seemed to have problems often with their headsets. It seemed to happen in very suspecting situations during the game. I never trusted that organization from that point forward. After Spygate, visiting teams still had issues with the headsets more so than any other team ever was at their visiting games. I guess since they got ole Roger to destroy all evidence before anything could be examined further, a pesky little head set problem was really no big deal.

I still put an * next to every accomplishment that those cheaters ever put on the gridiron.

Dynasty my AR$E!

 

It's old news but I will say what I've said for years. Go back and watch the post game interview from the 04 AFC champ game, Ward said " It's like they knew our plays" and guess what, they did! Stealing signs is part of it, and I'm sure every team looks for the upper hand, but to get caught, and not have to pay a stiffer penalty blew my mind seeing as how we may still lose a draft pick?

 

So was Chuck Noll but he's pretty much NEVER mentioned when people talk about the greatest. I think it's because the guys in the modern conversations were guys that had incredible offensive teams. Either that or the fact that the Steelers weren't very good in the 80s. But I just thought that was worth mentioning because, even self included, it seems that Chuck Noll doesn't get mentioned as he should.
