    Cheating isn't part of the game and shouldn't be tolerated because "everyone does it." Rules are made for a purpose and so should be followed. It's sad that at the highest level of this game people still resort to cheating.

    I would consider going in hotel rooms of the other team, no matter the manner of doing so, as breaking in. I would also consider it unethical to sneak in the opposing teams locker room. We aren't talking about public garbage. If I leave my laptop in the hotel room, is it unorthodox to have some one go in and dig around?

    We weren't talking about hotel rooms, and I saw nothing about that. I saw hotel dumpsters, which is public waste.

    Again, it's all hearsay anyways, so we're wasting our breath.

    Steelers were apparently getting the Patriots radio broadcast in their headsets. Let the conspiracy theories begin!

    I think we all know Pittsburgh's defense especially against the pass is gonna be bad, but they look so unorganized and illprepared.

    Yikes the Steelers need a ton of work. I know Bell will help a ton on offense, but he can't fix their defense.

    Jesus, people, it was an issue for both teams. Apparently something to do with the infrastructure and the weather.

    Still hilarious though.

    And I'm so sick of people taking any kind of potential scandal and adding "-gate" at the end of it. Deflategate works because it rhymes, and therefore is somewhat clever. But the Watergate was the name of a hotel, so adding "-gate" at the end of any word doesn't automatically make it a controversy, and is just stupid. And, most importantly, it's completely overdone at this point.

    I think it was Deadspin had the same rant about Deflategate, and instead opted to call it Ballghazi.

    We are talking about hotel rooms, that this the claim by former employees.

    All just hearsay....and a must be coincidence the Steelers headsest weren't working last night.

    The Patriots headset reportedly worked fine. Whenever the NFL would get the point that they were going to shut down the Pats radio, it would magically work.

    Coincidence!

    No it wasn't. The Patriots almost had to change helmets for Tom Brady. Belichick even said that this happens every week.

    You can't be dumb enough to think that the Pats would do something this blatant in the first game of the season, coming off the heels of all of this other stuff.
