Superb Owl XLIX: All that is light and good vs dirty cheaters
Who is ready for the super bowl?
This year, it will feature the New England Patriots (aka the dirty cheaters) and the Seattle Seahawks (aka all that is light and good).
Who are you cheering for?
How will the patriots cheat this game?
Will Richard Sherman's injured elbow fall off?

Screw the Pats. Go Hawks.
I hate the Seahawks on principle as a Niners fan... so therefore, Go Pats!
Haven't seen Fatcat in a bit, so I guess I'll check in as one of the resident Pats fans.
Good luck, Seahawks.
Pats.
I hate Belicheat Go hawks!!!
Since my first set of in-laws were total Massholes, it goes against my constitution to root for the Pats. Go Colts! Go Green Bay! Oops, too late... Go Seahawks, I guess.
Kansas City has had a strong alliance with the Patriots over our dislike for the Broncos and Peyton Manning. Also there is residual hatred from the Seahawks time in the AFCW. So Patriots.
Would be cool to see the Seahawks win 2 in a row
Would be cool to see Brady expand on his dynasty
Would be best it is is a good game with as much, or more excitement than the AFC Championship.
Go Sportsball!

The Pats need to have every win since 2007 STRIPPED, the AFC playoff game (In which they CHEATED) thrown out, their Super Bowl appearance revoked and given to the Colts, and be suspended from ALL games in the 2015-2016 season. But no, it's the Pats, they'll just flash their mystical money boner and the NFL will look the other way. Screw those cheating, lying, no good, dirty, stinkin, mammycoddled, wetnursing, cakey, clapped-in, boggin, dreich, dreep, feartil, glakit, hum-a-ding-dong, hing-oot, jessie, keech eating, mince, scabby, tossbag, skelly, shaan gadgie, BASTARDS.
GO HAWKS, BEAT THE BASTARDS!

The only thing worse than Boston fans are Seahawk fans. So I guess beer. Yeah I'll be rooting for beer.
I am sure it was totally the balls that were 2 psi underflated that caused the Colts to lose. Not their total inability to play defense.
Well it's not just that, more so the generality, that the pats always cheat, even when they don't need to, and somehow get away with it. If anyone else pulled what they pull they would no longer even HAVE a team.
Been watching the Pats play since I was in diapers.
There is a lot of sketchiness surrounding the whole story right now, the timeline isn't adding up and / or the refs were completely out of touch to have missed the under inflated balls when they were checked two hours before the game started. Also, the Patriots played much better football after half time when those 11 under-inflated footballs were pumped up to regulation PSI, whereas the Colts played just the same shitty football they were playing. Do I think they cheated, in all likelihood yes, because Bill Bellicheck is always pushing the boundaries of what he can get away with, just like Pete Carroll and his Seahawks.
Not saying Colts didn't play some shit ball (Am saying the spread may have been smaller if Pats were legit). But, a team who looses but plays legit, will always be better than a team that cheats. Honor in defeat is always better than dishonesty (Even in the slightest) in victory.
I'm not saying the Colts didn't deserve to win, but cheating is cheating is cheating. Whether it REALLY gave them an advantage isn't relevant, they were violating the rules and need to be punished. The game should be taken away from them.
I hear the Patriots are favored to win by 2 psi.
PLEASE REFUTE, NERDS.
This year, I will be rooting for:
and I may even throw some support to:
Yes, but wouldn't the Colts' balls have also seemed under-inflated because they were subjected to the same exact temperature conditions as the Patriots'?
It depends on if they were pumped up inside or outside. Also, the pressure range is a full PSI, meaning that if the Pats filled their balls (heh) to 12.5, and the Colts to 13.5, both in spec, then one would be out of spec once the air temperature was able to take effect.
Anyone have any favorite snacks for during the game?
Guy-Lussac's Law describes the relationship between the pressure of a confined ideal gas and its temperature. For the sake of argument, we will assume that the football is a rigid enough container (unless a ball is massively deflated, it's volume won't change).
For a ball that barely meets specifications (12.5 psi gauge), it's pressure would drop to 11.1 psi during the game... enough to be considered massively underinflated.
when your conclusion violates your assumptions, you're going to have a bad time.
for you Pats fan.
I could not possibly care less about this Super Bowl. Hate both the teams.
I'm just gonna play video games instead.
This. Deflation is a thing, sure, but it doesn't add up if it's only one team's side of the story.
Ultimately, I know the Colts played a bad game and all that. But cheating, man. There should be bigger repercussions than "well, you lose a draft pick I guess."
All I can say is it is so sad for Tom Baby and his sidekick Bill Bellacheat, they'll be ending their careers on a loss. (And yes I am suggesting they were both at fault and they BOTH should lose their jobs over this one)
So srsrsrs over a silly game. It's not like this is real football. C U GUIS @ FRANCE 2016 / trolol
Since the Pats aren't playing the Giants in the Superbowl this year, they might have a chance to win. That is, of course, if Brady can take a hit. Given his past history, I'll say no. I have no love for the 'Hawks, but I definitely have major dislike for the Pats. My guess is 31-14, 'Hawks over Pats.
