A bunch of things.

Why am I almost manic it seems?

Why has my blood sugar been so low?

Why didn't my professor post the online quiz he was supposed to 4 days ago? Or did he just put it in some really weird spot?

So when I was talking with the girl I like last night, she was musing that the dorm we live in had all the elements of a good soap opera, or mystery, except for one: murder.

She's right. Honestly, I might have to write a story sometime.

She's very right. Honestly, I might have to write this sometime.

"Jane! Jane! Mary is in another coma!"
"But that can't be because... You're Mary!"

DUN DUN DUUUUN

 

[JeffofGallifrey]

Honestly, I think I'd turn it into a mystery. Someone turns up dead and there's no telling who did it. The black guy who is blind and hates black people? Maybe. Or maybe it's the guy who is high all the time. Or, maybe the victim used foul language in front of my neighbor (nobody is allowed to say bad words in her presence!) Or maybe the killer is the guy who'll sleep with anyone that has a pulse. Or, maybe someone spooked my crush at the wrong time and she hit him with her stick (she's blind.)

Factor in the possibility that it isn't murder, just a drug overdose, and you have a good mystery.

I dont mind if people hate the Pats or Brady.... it just seems far more people do it because its the "in thing" like people loathing Nickleback than any valid reasons on the team or men themselves. I defend the Pats for that reason alone..... aside from the fact I feel so much of the hatred placed on them is unwarranted I couldn't care less who likes who.

Ask me why I hate the Cowboys...... I have reasons.
Ask me why I hate the Titans........ I have reasons and a history.

I've always hated on Brady because of the way he's praised-- like he's the Secone Coming or something-- when at the end of the day, he's always had an excellent O-line, a coach that uses every and any loop-hole, crosses any line-- and a media that sweeps everything they do under the rug because they want the dynasty, greatest of all-time debates.

Michael Jordan paved the way for a new kind of marketing that no one had really seen before. Ever since, every sport tries to duplicate it. Look at how Kobe Bryant was treated, and now LeBron. They're desperate to have a GOAT to market to the world.

Deflate gate was the last straw for me. Brady champions the rule change, immediately after the rule change, without a coaching change- the Pat's go from average in fumbles to best. It's harder to strip the ball when it's deflated. Coincidence?

The two guys they fried for Deflate gate referred to Brady in their text messages. Brady promised to cooperate fully with the investigation- then refused to turn over his phone, and then destroyed it, claiming he was being unfairly persecuted by the league.

Old detective tip when investigating, ask yourself: 'who benefits?'. Certainly the equipment staff did not benefit from deflating the balls. Certainly Tom Brady did. So why would they put their careers and livelihoods on the line to do this thing?

Because they were bribed to? By way of expensive shoes, and signed merchandise like game-worn jerseys? Which by the way, they referred to in their text messages...

Their explanation when asked about their texts? They were referring to a different Tom. One they couldn't provide a last name, phone number, description, or occupation for... This "Other Tom" just so happened to be very concerned about Patriots football inflation levels, which Brady just happened to be the champion of said rule changes that allows the pressure to be modified in the first place-- and Other Tom also apparently had access to game-worn, signed jerseys, shoes, etc...

When you build your career on videotaping other teams walk throughs before the game, having spies pretend to be photographers taking "panoramic shots" while they record the hand signals of the opposing team, so they can correlate it to game film, so they can know exactly what play the opposing team is calling-- and when your stadium is notorious for opposing team "equipment malfunctions" where their headsets stop working at crucial third down and late game situations-- it's hard for me to ever see him as a greatest of all-time candidate.

Add to that the League's excuse: "the taping of the opponent signals provided to advantage to NE" and Billichick's supposed ignorance that there was a rule against taping team signals (yeah, that's why they had to have photographers under a dummy name come into the stadium with a cover story, because they weren't aware it was cheating...)-- and their OC at the time, McDaniels- when on to coach Denver, where he got caught taping signals again. So I ask you, if it provided no advantage, why put your career on the line to do it a second time after getting caught? He is also the Patriots OC again by the way...

Spoiler

Well that was my problem with Manning so I can certainly understand. But I admit the reason for my "hate" of the man isn't even his fault.

I understand that deflating makes it easier to hold and makes it easier to catch (It also makes it easier to pick off IF your D is in the right place). However...... what stops the other teams from doing it as well? I mean the league is NOT full of by the book coaches and owners. They will ALL break/bend and skirt the rules for an upper hand..... its part of the game. The problem is people want to believe all these teams are operating under "good sportsmanship" or "fairness" but its never.... EVER been that way.

Just look at the league BEFORE the pass was part of the game. Even then it was about trickery and getting the upper hand. If it weren't for outside the box thinking football would still be all about running. Every play would be a run as it was before.

The pass became part of the game because a thinker thought he could get the upper hand. (Like kicking an onside after halftime in the SB.)

Now its part of the game.

The Patriots may skirt rules.... but honestly.... if the PSI in the ball was the all important stat people want to claim it is.... then why is it that Aaron Rodgers and his Packers arent fumbling left right and sideways as he likes the ball over inflated.

I get it, people hate Brady...... but its NOT like the man caused WWIII.

The Patriots IMO dont do anything any other team wouldn't do IF they were smart enough to think of it first.

I know this isn't healthy but come on, man! It's not like it's hurting anybody...

OMM: Timing....the will of God...
Also omm: Why do doctors' offices have two tvs in their waiting room that they set to two different stations? They usually also have both tvs cranked up as loud as they can go without causing hearing loss to someone. Honestly it sounds like 2 angry beehives that are about to have a turf war.

"Well everybody does it" is about the worst excuse in the world. If we actually punished people who get caught, then maybe everybody wouldn't cheat. But slapping them on the wrist and letting them continue, and praising every move they make in the media-- let's just tell all the kids watching that cheating is the way to get ahead.
