Nobody’s Perfect: Patriots VS Costa Rican

 Nobody’s Perfect

“Thou Shalt Not Steal” said Moses. And it was a pretty good rule too. All those starving people were probably stealing grandma’s favorite goats out there in the desert… but that was long ago, BEFORE the world invented such temptations like Superbowl rings, and color TVS.

Football Fan

And so, This week, we compare a football team, and an unknown lady, both accused of cheating.

Let’s start with the one most talked about: The Patriots are accused of “cheating” and thereby ‘stealing’ a win, in their last football game, which happened to take them to the Superbowl:

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Patriots coach Bill Belichick said Monday he will cooperate with an NFL investigation into whether the Patriots used footballs that were not fully inflated during Sunday’s 45-7 win over the Colts in the AFC Championship Game.

The potential use of underinflated game balls was first reported by Bob Kravitz of WTHR.com two hours after the game. Using underinflated footballs can help quarterbacks and receivers grip the ball better, especially in the rain. It rained during the game and there were occasional downpours.

Yes, even though the OTHER team got to catch that deflated football TOO..logic does not serve here.

And then you have the Costa Rican Lady who just wanted to steal a TV…and did.

Pretty slick, huh? Either she has thighs that would fit on the hubs of a RAM Truck, or this is NOT the first TV she has stolen.

So, who wins the Nobody’s Perfect Award for the week?

Is it the Patriots, who by their very name are no doubt hated by Eric Holder, and Barack Obama, if for no other reason than they are not named after an Indian Tribe? Nobody Thinks even if the football WAS deflated, it’s not like they are the only ones allowed to touch it. I didn’t see the game, but something tells me, they should blame whatever rep handles the footballs, not the teams. Nevertheless..

This is not the first time the Patriots have been involved in a game-day controversy. In a 2007 game against the Jets, they were accused of taping the Jets’ sideline defensive signals. The NFL determined the Patriots violated NFL rules and made them surrender their 2008 first-round draft pick. The team was fined $250,000 and Belichick was fined $500,000.

Wow. That’s serious. Taping the other team? Whoa.  I don’t know.

Or is it the lady who had the “squat and insert” position down pat?

Or maybe we should be asking, “What would Moses do?”

I don’t know. Nobody Thinks the trophy for best cheater and stealer of the years goes to the Costa Rican woman. Who KNOWS how many things she has stolen? I bet she could walk out with a lawn mower, microwave oven, one of those expensive mixers I can’t afford…..a new washer, at least ten boxes of expensive perfume..

What was her name again?

As for the Patriots?

Keep the name fellows. Deflated football or not…I don’t follow football, but something tells me, if you can’t play with ANY kind of ball in the rain, then you deserve to lose.

I suggest the Colts go to the gym, and start developing those thighs.
