I am a DIE HARD JETS fan, so we have been the victim of their cheating ways. Now do I think this deflate situation helped them win? NO they were the better team one way or the other.

Yes I think Tom Brady knew, I heard him on the news this morning saying he didn't notice the balls were deflated. PLEASE you've been a NFL QB for 15 years. Yea I think he had something to do with it, why?. I'm not sure they would have beaten the Colts either way.

It's the principal of being honest, having sportsman ship and being a role model to kids.

I am a Colts fan and there's a few things about this that bother me. For one, I'm tired of being told Colts fans are sore losers. The Patriots just outplayed the Colts..would have probably won even without the deflated footballs. But that being said, cheating is cheating period!! I don't know who was behind it though. Tom Brady says he has no knowledge of who did it. But, even if he's telling the truth, he's still in the wrong..here's why. Brady is a "professional" who has been in the league long enough to know the rules. He handles the ball very frequently, therefore he should have known the ball felt "underweight". And if the players don't know what the exact weight of the ball is, they should have to go back to training and re-learn every single last rule that the NFL has in place. All of the patriots players who held the balls should have realized something was wrong. I've never been a fan of the pats, as they always seem to "skirt around the rules" but they've always been labeled a good team...how can you be "so good" and the "best in the league" if someone within your organization always has to cheat? It's almost as though they don't have enough confidence in their team and I think they all need replaced with people who know the rules and will play fairly. And that goes for all teams in the NFL..but right now that mainly applies to the Pats..but that's all my opinion. And the NFL not giving out very stiff punishment is unacceptable. They're teaching today's youth that it's ok to cheat and "bend the rules" if your rich or powerful.

Bears Fan. Tom Brady definitely knew and Belichek probably knew too. They definitely cheated. However, I think they would of beat the Colts if they hadn't did it.

I am a big football fan and the whole thing makes me sad. They don't need to cheat to win, why do it?

Absolutely Brady and Belichek BOTH knew. It was stupid, they would have won anyway. The questions is, now what?

I think the press conference where Brady managed to say "my balls" eighty gazillion times was freaking hysterical. I hope they do an SNL skit. "I like my balls to have a certain degree of firmness. That firmness is important when handling my balls. I don't like my balls to be too hard, and I don't like my balls to be too soft either. I'm also particular about who is allowed to touch my balls. I don't want just anyone touching my balls you know!"

I. Die. }:)
