That on top of the people in the top row who heard cheering above them, where only speakers were, the article I already linked to that said the people at the game heard the skip......it's not only that. Give up. There's no doubt the Colts are doing it, it's only a matter of whether or not the NFL will admit it. Which they fairly obviously will not.

The Patriots videotaped signals for a few minutes in one game, then have been under heavy scrutiny since.

The Colts have been trying to directly influence the game for years.

IMO, if the Patriots lost a draft pick and $750,000 for what they did, the Colts should lose all their draft picks and at least $10 million for what they did, it's so much worse. But you'll never see that happen, since the NFL just looooves the Colts.

HOW? No one has fully proved that the Colts cheated. While the NFL commissioner had actual evidence of the Pats cheating. And numerous teams talked about the Pats doing the same thing. Dont get me wrong, the Pats are a hell of a team, with or without the tapes, but when you get caught doing something, it takes some of that credibility away. People liked the Pats before this incident, but no one likes a cheater. Period.

It's just funny that they ruled in favor of something fairly obviously wrong. It's almost as bad as all the blown calls by the refs. I think at this point, if you don't think the NFL is trying to do as much as they can to get the Patriots to lose, you need to dead yourself.

EVERY team videotapes and tries to learn signals from the other team. The Patriots just got caught because they're the team everyone loves to hate.

In the Army, we call this IPB. (Intelligence Preperation of the Battlefield). It's all about knowing the enemy. Would you like it better if they had binos and no cameras?
