I 100% disagree with that belief, but I understand I am alone on that.

And while I believe the Pats cheated here, I think everyone needs a heaping portion of perspective. This would have been a relatively minor thing yet it has gone on for months and months with investigations rivalling criminal cases. This molehill has turned into a mountain range.

Fine them a couple thousand dollars or something, and move along.

The effort put into this as opposed to the other issues like concussions, post-career mental health, or sexual harassment really is embarrassing.
