What you don't seem to get is that your thoughts are so heavily influenced by your homer-dom that you have zero credibility. You try to accuse me of the same thing (on the flip), but you can't seem to get it through your head that I would make the same arguments against any other team in the league if they were accused of the shit the Patriots were accused of.

When I shit all over Tebow, religious lunatics say I have it out for him. And they pointed out that magical 3 game set when he just won, baby!

When I criticize Kobe because he's selfish, I'm just a hater and clearly don't like the Lakers'.

When I talk about how fraudulent Phil Jackson is, I'm just jealous of his amazing success.

When I shit on the Knicks' complete ineptitude or the Yankees' (abundantly clear) knowledge of Arod's and Giambi's juicing, no one bats an eye. Funny that.

When I shit on the Patriots cheating ways, it's all because I just can't stand Boston.

Whatever.

I read it. I think it's often ridiculous. And your conclusion, after admitting that whether or not Brady cheated was not at issue, that you think the judge didn't think Brady cheated based on the loosest of dicta is just comical. But whatever helps you take Brady balls deep without gagging. More power to ya.

You posted something about Berman's decision which was incorrect. Since I actually have read Berman's decision, I posted about it. In response, you said, "Ha ha ha. No it's not. It's hard for a Patriots fan to come to any conclusion other than they each want to take Brady in their mouth." You may not have a particular grudge against Pats fans, but I don't think I'm way off-base in guessing that mood affiliation is involved. (And all that other shit you're posting about now -- I don't think those conversations were with me.) I'm not sure how you're forming your opinions about things like what Berman wrote, but actually reading what he wrote would give you better information.
