Bill Belichick had someone filming the opposing coach's hand signals, and matched it up with their offensive plays. Even though everyone was specifically told not to do it this year. Its interesting though, the team that "caught" them... the head coach used to be on the patriots...

Anyhow, I will be rooting for the Giants. Since I live in Indy, I automagically dislike Brady. Hopefully it'll be a good game though.

What is this Super Bowl you speak of? Which regional is it at? What kind of robots do they have there?

Seriously, the Patriots are 6-1/2 miles from my house. Do I have a choice? (Actually, I'll probably fall asleep watching the game. I like football, but not that much.)

CT Born and raised... and I despise the Patriots and their shady owner Mr. Bob Kraft.

Giants are the lesser of two evils in this case, but I'm just there to see the cool new commercials most years anyways, and this year is no exception.

I am going against you on this one...I think it would be great to see her mess up. Also if the Pats do complete their perfect season that wouldn't suck.

As for the cheating thing: It boils down to this? Did they cheat yes. Did it have any bearing on the outcome of the games they played? NO. If it did have an effect we wouldn't be 18-0.

and you have to remember, Bill Belichick hates Eric Mangini, and i also think that Belichick was like a man on a mission to destroy, no other coaches came to his aid after he was caught...and i believe that all the coaches are doing somthing to gain an edge...

I live in MA, I have to root for the Patriots...

BTW, They were caught cheating in the FIRST game of the season, and caught during the first half, Do you really think it made much of an impact on much of the rest of their season?

Same here. Even if I weren't a Giants fan I would be rooting against the Patriots. I respect Tom Brady as a quarterback, and I respect Bill Belichick as a coach. But I hate Robert Kraft for the games he played with Hartford to get a new stadium.

Go G-men!

It's not that, but the nerve of them to cheat in the first place, even if they did get caught, I think it's horrible that they'd even try to cheat. Also, if they didn't get caught, it probably would've mattered, I think. But still, they had the nerve to cheat, which to me is the definition of a bad (as in evil) team.

Interesting.

Personally i think the giants will be able to pull off the upset and take this Super Bowl victory :eek:

Re: Who are you cheering for in the Super Bowl?
 
Only two outcomes can please me...
1. An insanely close pats victory and an all around excellent game to watch
or
2. a complete blowout of the pats by the giants (for the lolz)

Not only do i despise and hate the Patriots i also HATE Boston! I am a Jets Fan which further strengthens my hate for the Pats. I still wish the Packers won but Bret Favre had a good season. So GIANTS you better win.

So... it's OK to cheat as long as you'd win anyways? :confused: That defies my logic.

I'm rooting for nobody. I don't like either team, though I dislike the Patriots. I fully expect this to be a terrible SB.

I'm in for the Giants. I figure as an Indiana native and rabid Colts fan, I should show a little "brotherly" love for Eli. He's pretty underrated, especially this season. He's done way better in his last five games than Peyton... I think it's time for us to stop judging Eli based on his brother's performance and start looking at him as a decent quarterback. Especially considering some of the mediocre quarterbacks in the league right now.

I absolutely despise teams that cheat, in FIRST or otherwise. That sums it up for me.

Re: Who are you cheering for in the Super Bowl?
 
I feel like the minority wanting the Patriots to win. Since Los Angeles has not had a team for most of my life, I was a Patriots fan. Im also a Packers and Colts fan too, but I am sad they are eliminated. I wanted Colts to take it though. Although Eli is a great QB, I think Brady and Moss combo is too good for the Giants to stop. Since the Giants played dirty, and dont kid yourself, they did, against Randy Moss in that last game of the season, I think Patriots have it. As much as I would love Peyton or Farve to be in the super bowl slot, I am glad Brady is there. You have to admit though, without Moss, Brady isnt as good. But Moss is freaken amazing!!!!

Football aint really my main sport i watch, its all about basketball (go Lakers)!!!!
