As a Steelers fan with Martavis Bryant out for four games, I'm a little upset with this.

So the Patriots clearly cheat in the second biggest game of the year and there are literally zero repercussions. Great job, everyone.

The Cheatriots are God's team and are above the rules. Didn't you know?
And they have been for generations. Alas, that is the way of the world in the upper echelons.
Indeed lol
Did they? Even the Judge said there was no evidence.
Funny, people need to get off their soap box because they did not read the reports/follow the actual case.
They cheated in Super Bowls and got away with it. This is child's play by comparison.

As a Colts fan, I've thought this whole thing was petty and a joke from the start. I'm glad that we no longer have to hear about it

If Brady were a Viking he would have been sent to a Russian gulag.
Bad things don't happen to Tom Brady. Or New England Patriots.
And it seems like the case was kinda weak?

And that was more than enough for this bullshit.

Justice is served
Just looking at this and this is my standpoint.
Keep in mind I find the sport boring and I don't follow it at all, but there is no way to even to get evidence.
But I bet it did happen with how the world spins today.

Loss of two draft picks and a fine of one million dollars doesn't really equal zero repercussions.

Also ITT people who have not followed the case at all over the past 6 months making knee jerk reactions about how much the Patriots were cheating. I highly suggest reading up on the evidence in this case.
The team was still fined a mil and losing 2 draft picks, which is in the rule books, nothing in the rule books say suspension and plus they had no real proof on Brady having anything to do with it.
Losing a 1st and 4th round pick sounds like repercussions

As if that's a real punishment.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
This case wasn't even about if he did it or not. It was about if the procedure to hand down judgement from the league was fair or not.

Define "clearly" because obviously your definition differs from what it actually means.
Also that statement is just wrong. The Patriots had draft picks taken away and were fined. Tom Brady was ruled to have no involvement.
Keep up the song and dance though!
People have already made up their minds, asking them to be rational I think is expecting too much. People made up their minds about the Patriots in 2007 (and they were pretty hated at that point).
What a counterpoint. Using an argument that would have worked in the 1995 movie Clueless. Amazing!
