Nah the Seahawks didn't deserve to win it. But they certainly didn't cheat that season to get there in the first place.

Tom Brady knew what was going on, and he didn't like it, but at the same time, didn't say nothing about it to anyone until after.

With the level of competition/parity in the NFL and after reviewing the turnover stats - I honestly don't think the Pats would have been in the Super Bowl if they hadn't been cheating all season.

Just look back 1 game to the NE - Baltimore game. All it took was a slight edge for NE to squeak that one out. The kind of slight edge you gain by cheating and deflating footballs.

One dropped pass in the last 2 NE scoring drives and Baltimore wins. If Verneen loses control of the ball .1 second earlier on his fumble and isn't ruled down by contact, Baltimore wins. Small edges won that game, and that is just 1 game during that entire season.

What would someone need to do to be justifiably stripped of a SB in your opinion?

Manipulating the game clock at home?

Creating artificial wind in their stadiums?
Perhaps kidnap the opposing teams mascot and starting QB before the Super Bowl and keep them in an abandoned warehouse and throw footballs at the mascot.

No, he's biased cause the Seahawks beat his team
I'm not biased we lost fair and square you guys are biased cuz you lost to the Pats. Letting a little air out of the football ain't a big deal it's certainly not strip the Super Bowl worthy. Packers beat the Patriots with their deflated balls it's not like it makes them invincible or something.
