He's trying to trap you with semantics.

He is playing the "post 2006 memo" card when video taping became illegal.

Everyone else knows you mean "pre 2006 memo" when everyone, yes...everyone, was videotaping signals.

Precisely my point in asking for the link. And why I'm assuming he won't provide said link

I honestly don't think that stealing signals or plays is all that new in the NFL.

The Bucs obliterated the Raiders in Superbowl XXXVII, mostly because Jon Gruden and his coaching staff knew the Raiders playbook backwards and forwards. Is that stealing? Does that diminish their victory? Not really.

No cameras used, so that makes it ok.

I'd like to change my first post to read" It's OK to cheat legally if everyone is doing it, and it's OK to cheat illegally as long as everyone else is doing it unless you are a team from the North East." But I may just be really confused at this point.



based on this, the Bucs under Chucky cheated in the superbowl vs the raiders because they didn't change signals. I don't seem to hear raiders fans crying about this.

I'm now saying that Billy B did cheat against the rams for using the same playbook he had when he was with the giants in their superbowl.
Bwahahahahha ... You serious calling them cheaters because a former player knew signals from past years .... That actually really funny .... Cause the pats never signed afc east cast offs to grill them for information ....

Still waiting for the link...

I mean, the whole point is to protect the integrity of the game, right? So that the playing field is level, right? If so, why are we arguing all the semantics in how this "unfair advantage" is gained??? It's a bit pedantic, honestly.

^^^^^^^^^^Spot on. This will be a non-issue because the colts have been irrelevant the last few years.

This thread is hilarious. I'll chime in for sheets and giggles

Watching the other team send in signals from their sideline isn't "stealing". It's not like someone went into their locker room and stole the play sheets. It's just doing everything you can to try and figure out what your opponent will do next.

Filming a practice or a sideline and then using that illegal footage to prepare for a game is giving your team an unfair advantage.

Now you kids can go out and play

The red never happened...at least with the Pats.
The blue happened with every. single. team. prior to 2006.

We tend to be more level headed than our Southern neighbours. Lol

I'm not accusing any team of anything. Just posting my opinion on the topic of "cheating"
