Richard Sherman talked to ESPN yesterday about Brady and the Patriots.

Reiterating thoughts that Tom Brady's four-game suspension was too severe, he said that he's happy the punishment was overturned AND he downplayed cheating allegations against the Patriots.

In his words: "Everybody does their things a little differently, but at the end of the day, it's handled between the lines. And if they man up and they beat you straight up, they beat you straight up. You can say they knew your plays or they watched this or they watched that, but a lot of times if you watch film good enough, you find good indicators. You find things. So if you're studying the game the right way, you go out there understanding what plays are coming, and you know when the plays are coming. But can you execute? Can 11 guys stop the other 11 from executing their play?"

He continued: "And at the end of the day, that's what it's about. You can say you stole scripts or whatever it is, but they still have to win the game. They still have to intercept the ball. They still have to execute. Eleven guys have to execute at the same time. And that's what they did, so give them credit. If there's hanky-panky going on, they've gotten away with it."

"Bu-but he's a c00n" :patsfanumad:

"Bu-but the Patriots CHEATED!" :patsfanumad:
"Bu-but the integrity of the game...":patsfanumad:

I think it's moreso him siding with the player and player's union than him actually giving a fukk about Brady.

Brady's suspension getting overturned is a huge win for all players in the league. In a league with non-guaranteed contracts and owners/GMs seizing more control after each CBA negotiation, these players gotta stick together.

I respect him for not being a whiner or excuse maker. That said, this sounds and awful lot like a drug dealer siding with a thief over the police. He has gotten away with his dirt too. At least he isn't a sanctimonious hypocrite (like all the members of the do it he right way, don't break the rules crowd who have minimized and dismissed this) though.

That's his opinion, but I totally disagree. It seems as if the Patriots are doing their damndest to circumvent the rules and they know this type of behavior is untoward which is why they keep it a secret.
