Everyone prepare for this thread to devolve into a 50 page argument of Patriots fans explaining what “really” happened to everyone else and why it “actually isn’t cheating”, and fans of teams that have lost big games to them in the past explaining how this isn’t a big enough punishment...

......like the last 5 times we’ve done this lol

Thoughts? Justified or?

Not enough punishment. This is their second strike for filming teams. Third time should result in banning Belicheat.

So they get hit with a slap on the wrist after being caught for the 7th+ time.

And this is why they continue to cheat.

The independent film crew probably made this punishment less severe. Like there was plausible deniability on the pats half.

The NCAA has post season bowl game or Basketball tourney bans, right?

I think the NFL should've liked banned NE from postseason. This is ridiculous at this point.

If this were the NCAA, they'd be banned from the league at this point, and stripped of all their titles.

But this is the NFL where they get special treatment and have no incentive to stop anytime soon, so they won't.
