Was Angus Young even with AC/DC then?

According to this, Young co-wrote the song with Bon Scott and Malcolm Young.

You're confusing him with current singer Brian Johnson.

So's stupidity. We can all point and laugh.

Until someone comes up with evidence that the footballs were deflated (which they'd have to be, right, because they're supposed to be inspected by the officials prior to the game), there's no cheating.

All the important local TV stations will be carrying Belichick's 9:30 a.m. press conference live, of course.

after that heartfelt and sincere explanation by the very contrite Coach Belichick, how would anyone ever think he had anything to do with this?

"(Grunt) I just coach the players, what do I know about the day to day operations of a team I've been with for fifteen years? (Snort) Now is that enough answers for you?"

Maybe that was some other guy that got fined 500k in 2007. I must be stupid!

Ray Rice was suspended indefinitely (until an arbiter overturned it). Meanwhile, Suggs (he of the bleach tossing at his wife incident and dragging her behind a car) never even paid a fine.

The NFL's penalty for non-game infractions has never been consistent or fair. Everything Belichick was doing with the video cameras was legal...except that he had the videographer in the wrong place in the stands.

You're not stupid, but the NFL is. The NFL media even more so.

I hate sports with a passion. I should just refrain from commenting on any sports related post, as I really have nothing constructive to say on the subject.

I'll just go back to baiting righties on "American Sniper"

Should really go to the plastic baby. Most believable character in the whole thing.

Especially when jocks write physically contradictory rules that ignore it!

The Pats have hot balls, the Packers have cold balls, and somehow the Packers aren't cheating.

It isn't cheating to understand the basic laws of nature well enough to game them.
