As I type this the NFL is investigating America's darlings, for pumping in artificial crowd noise in their loss yesterday to the Patriots. I have heard the tape and there is definitely something fishy going on.

I'm not expecting the league to fine them or strip them of a 1st round draft pick, but it should be known that ALL teams even the angelic Colts do whatever they can to gain an egde.

There's the URL. Definitely sounds like they're pumping it in.

Um...pecota, everybody jumped on the Patriots for spygate. Maybe this incident isn't as bad, but any NFL O-lineman will tell you how disruptive crowd noise can be.

As a Patriots fan, we have been beaten about the face with the spy gate garbage for the past 8 weeks. I just want it to be known that every team cheats in some way.

You know what petcoa, if my team just got trounced last week 52-7 and squeeked by the 1-8 Jets in OT, I wouldn't care either.

Check the validity of that claim by comparing it to the Patriots official broadcast. The reverberation isn't heard there. It's much ado about nothing. Simply accept the fact that your team cheated. Trying to pull other teams down to where the Patriots are doesn't clean up the Patriots.

Coach to QB radio was down for most of the game too, at least on the Patriots sideline.

Don't be bitter because the Pats are going to win the Superbowl and then take your teams 1st round pick next year (which will be top 5 at the rate they're going). I posted that the league is investigating, if your privy to broadcast that the NFL hasn't heard yet then you should call Roger Goodell.

And trust me nobody is pulling any team down to the Pats - ALL TEAMS ARE TRYING TO ASCEND TO THEIR LEVEL.

Wow, I think I remember hearing that during the game but thinking nothing of it.

Now that I hear it again, uh-oh the part of the Colts.

Lets not jump the gun and say that Dungy requested for this. Lets just say that maybe the RCA Dome staff decided to help their home team out a bit. Who knows how this really went down.

Kinda sad that for the majority of the game the Colts had stumped Brady and even were using extra crowd noise from the PA and lost in the end anyway.

Gotta love it, but Im sure the NFL will try to keep it quiet. I seen and heard the audio on a few boards last night right after the game, and Im willing to bet nothing gets made of it. Just like they will try to ignore the official calling in that game, which was obvious to a blind man that they were tilting the game in the Colts favor.

"Lets not jump the gun and say that Dungy requested for this."

I would look to Bill Polian. He has a reputation for being a nasty little man. However, I doubt Dungy knew nothing.
