    You saying it doesn't make it true but for the sake of argument let's say he did. Justify Goodell's actions.

    That's a stupid comparison. Brady actively took steps to go behind the rules. "Holding" as called or not-called is not even remotely related.

    Why would I justify Goodell's actions? I felt great when Tom was banned for 4 games. That's probably a good punishment for actively conspiring to and actually cheating.

    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    You're still sticking with the if you repeat something often enough it becomes the truth strategy? Let me guess, you're a Sparty who still stings from the spankings Tom Terrific gave you.

    I think a lot of people are clouded on this. You know that saying 'America loves a winner'? Bullcrap. Some Americans don't like winners, they like to tear them down by any means necessary. dmp accused me of being a Tom Brady fan like that's a bad thing. Damn straight I'm a Tom Brady fan. He wins and he wins with class no matter what that little troll Goodell has to say about it.

    That almost sounded good until you said you were a Tom Brady fan. Had to ruin it, didn't you?

    I'm NOT a Tom Brady fan. I hope a Steeler LB hammers him so far into the ground it takes a week for him to dig out. However, I am on record HERE saying Goodell can kiss my ass and I thought the accusation was BS.

    I remember going through this crap since the 70s. The Steelers were dirty. The Cowboys were dirty. I just wonder how Bob Griese got a pass. The Dolphins had one of the meanest defenses ever. Jake Scott would take your head off and they let Manny Fernandez out of a cage every Sunday.
