We now learn that Richard Sherman had a significant knee injury that the Seahawks just never reported.

Pete Carrol skirting the rules? Say it ain't so! ��

What's worse his that he kept missing practices and the team would announce that he was missing them for "non injury related" reasons

It won't matter. The seachickens seem to be untouchable. If this were the Patriots, the NFL would have already had them found guilty and removed from the playoffs.

LOL. Probably so!

Seahawks will get punished but probably just cash. Goodell loves the Giants so much. If it were the Giants they'd win an award!

The Patriots are the biggest cheats in football and rarely ever get commensurate punishment.

WHAT!!! They may cheat, probably no more than other teams. They have however been over punished.

How? Have they lost a Lombardi yet? Have they lost multiple 1st round picks? They have had MULTIPLE major cheating scandals and have lost a QB for 4 games and a couple of picks. They should have lost at least one trophy, 3 years of 1st and second rounders for the level of cheating they did, hell if I was a player that played against them I would sue for lost wages.

You are assuming other teams don't exploit the grey areas. They all do, some push it more and some get caught due to the NFL choosing to focus on them more.

The league punishes the Pats more because they are consistently a good team. The league, like Vegas, profits most via competition. It's artificial balance that has nothing to do with the infractions and everything to do with money. That doesn't mean they aren't cheaters, however.
