    Why would anyone give a shit if a couple dudes snuck into the Super Bowl, didn't harm a person and just had a good time.

    Isn't there a guy that has snuck into every Super Bowl up until a few years ago?

    The worst PJ show experience of my life was when I had decent side stage seats at Boston II 04... my friend had to bail after Boston I so I gave the seat next to me away outside.

    Well 20 seconds before the lights go down, like 4 people pile into the seat next to me and my space. Complete scum move. They tried to tell me I was in the wrong seat. Show starts. Things are dark, loud, and crazy and I couldnt do anything about it, but stand behind 2 people, being in contact, with no room the entire show.


    Im a big proponent of sit your ass in the seat(s) you have tickets for.


    I have a friend who goes to concerts/sporting events and does nothing but obsess with how to move up and get better seats. It drives me crazy. He spends time trying to monitor empty seats and secuity patterns... Then gets to the front and takes like 20 facebook photos. He does a move too where he grabs 2 beers and holds them up, nudging to the front as if he belongs and just went to get a round for him and someone.

    Its scummy.

    $25,000. Thats Grand Larceny right?

    My wife and I were in two decent aisle seats at PJ in Vancouver in 2011. Two drunk chicks thought they could just stand next to us, half in, half out of the aisle. Halfway thru the show I had an usher remove our "new friends."
    If I had known then what I know now...

    I lost a ton of respect for Rice and Aikman during the past 3 weeks, that only adds to it.

    As of 2:14pm EDT, ESPN still has a link to Charles Haley's comments up on their front page. Not surprisingly there is no mention of Jerry Rice's hypocrisy, or Boomer Esiason's recent comments that Deflategate was a frame job, etc.

    His statements like:
    “Now twice, under Bill Belichick and possibly a third time, they’ve cheated and given themselves an advantage. To me, the punishment for the Patriots and/or Bill Belichick has to be more severe than what the punishment was for the New Orleans Saints.”

    Yeah I'll say. They have a story up about Charles Haley shit-talking...which is fine. But in a world where Haley accusing someone of cheating is a story, then someone ADMITTING to cheating has to be one too. And this is cheating. What on earth was Rice thinking admitting this? We all know it was legal in the 70's and the Raiders (and probably others) took full advantage. But it was banned in 1981. BANNED.

    Actually it's funny that Rice of all people would criticize the Patriots because he IS the Patriots. My knock on the Patriots isn't so much that they cheat, but they're so good that don't even need to! I've compared to that time the actress Winona Ryder got caught stealing clothes. What for? She could afford it. Why videotape the JETS' handsignals? They suck. You don't need to do that. Well that goes tenfold for Rice. He's the greatest ever with or without stickum...but he chose "with"....and for some reason admitted it. Dumbass. Like Marshall Faulk and many others that I loved watching when they played, Rice became a total douche as a so-called analyst and I'm happy to see him knee-deep in shit here.

    I thought the 1994 Niners were in violation of everything the Broncos were and then-some but they're not mentioned in that article. I could be wrong though. Anyway, those teams come from the pre-social-media, pre-"jaded people who want to see others fail and/or be disgraced" era that we're living in now so they get a pass....as Rice is.

    Yeah Carmen Policy and Dwight Clark were later fined, Niners during their run circumvented the salary cap on numerous occasions.

    ETA: Here's an article from 2000 comparing how light the 49ers got off compared to NBA's T'Wolves:

    could be wrong but i think there was technically a scheduling conflict last year....ultimately i think the nfl just wants to have the one of the biggest stories of each month of their off season

    This whole "will he throw at the combine?" thing is ridiculous. The guy is going to throw either at the combine or at his pro day so who gives a fuck which one it is??? I love the NFL, but you can keep all of this combine bullshit.

    They ran a very strange "smoking gun" story relating to DeflateGate that featured no such smoking gun...and then Adam Schefter called in and blew the whole thing up on live TV. It was glorious.
