Absolutely no doubt about it, in either scenario, as far as I’m concerned.

Within the rules or not, they held him out to gain a competitive advantage. It may not make them cheaters but it makes them even bigger pieces of #### than I already thought they were.
That's it for me, too. I'm not interested in the "was it legit" debate. Sports is just about hating and liking teams and players, and this is enough for me to hate them more than I already did.

They'll likely win the Cup and they absolutely should as they have a nearly $20mil higher payroll playing for the Cup than anyone else. That sucks regardless of whether they could or should have done it.
