Everybody Does It

NYTimes.com: For every N.F.L. game, each team has 12 to 20 balls that it has meticulously groomed and prepared according to the needs of its starting quarterback. The balls, brushed and primed using various obvious and semisecret techniques, bear the team logo and are switched out from sideline to sideline depending on which team is on offense.

You had me at "the balls are brushed and primed..."

The TIMES was having a little fun with this one.

I don't think this whole think would have caused a ripple if Bill Billichick didn't have such a reputation for cheating. Add that to Tom Brady trying to throw his equipment manager under the bus and the Patriots are really looking like jerks right now.

Belichick threw Brady under the bus, so Brady had to toss somebody else. You're right. They do look like jerks.
