So let me get this straight, you post a thread about the penalty of the Pats. You think that the punishment wasnt fair enough. Yet you havent watch football for 20 years and have no clue what the penalty means.
$1mil, 2 draft picks and 4 game suspension is HUGE in NFL terms. Dont try to argue this with me cuz you havent watch the game for 20 years. This isnt a crime and no one will go to jail. Its air in a ball, not murderer like Hernedez, OJ Simpson. This isnt Rice beating his wife nor AP beating his child and the hundreds of substance abuse...its a case of air pressure in a ball and even CNN, Bloomberg and every station have to chime in...why, cuz thats what TV do these days. They feed us whatever gets them high tv rating..ChaChing$$$
So what does this mean for me and you...absalutely nothing cuz Im still going to watch every game and Pat fans will cheer for their team, non Pat fans will hate them as long as they're winning

- Nobody has to feed me anything for me to know that willfully acting in contravention of stated rules to which one expressly agreed to adhere is cheating.
- I don't need to be fed anything to think that cheating is wrong.
- Nobody needs to feed me anything for me to know that millions of young people see sports figures like Mr. Brady as role models.
- I don't need to be fed anything, and I don't ever need to watch a football game, to know that a Super Bowl win isn't worth all that much money to a $2.5 billion organization. And what that means is that to the business owner, the penalties levied aren't worth much at all.
What I do need to be "fed" is something that explains why anyone would vociferously defend cheaters and cheating by NFL players, owners and other team employees. I need to be "fed" something that'll help me understand what has happened to people's morals and ethics in U.S.
Red:
Please credibly quantify what exactly the cost of those penalties is.
All the best.
