Hi, I now live in Indy and I'm a Colts fan. I also grew up in NYC, 23 years, so I also saw our NY Giants take care of the Patriots on quite a few occasions
.
The Patriots cheated. They cheated and that's a fact (info available today).
Another fact is that had they NOT cheated, they still would have kicked our ass.
But they felt the need to cheat (again), however insignificant it might have been it does not change what they did. They should be punished as a repeat offender, not just a fine and a slap on the wrist by taking away a draft pick that is not going to affect them in the least.
It's a pity that such a team feels the need to repeatedly do things like this... it only taints whatever the history books have to say about them.
