So abit like Suarez?
Just like the other examples I gave. But if such a rule was in in those sports it would still be an unfair advantage based on the toss of a coin.
Don't like having your opinions commented on them don't come crying about it being unfair because the team you wanted did not win
Wah wah wah I don't like the outcome they need to change the rules. Wah wah wah. Cry me a river.
Seems a lot fairer alright
Thing is, if they end up punting, then at least both teams get a possession.
I think for the Superbowl both teams should get a possession regardless of what happens, as it seems like the coin toss gives you advantage (regardless of what the numbers show)
Same here minus the Scouser part. Pats fans are in need of a good humbling.
I couldn't care less what others said about its effect on the game... he cheated.
He also benefited from the organization cheating in Spygate, which leads to me not standing the Pats, which feeds into me not liking him.
And what @SaintTresano said.
Lol. But it's not fair!!!! Wah wah wah
The Falcons could've stopped them by way of turnover, punt, or even FG - but they weren't able to. Likewise, the Pats could've fecked things up by not advancing the ball, but they didn't. They instead did what they had to, to score a TD and win the game and SB.
As far as detestability, then it's an alright comparison. Suarez' actions are much worse because he is such a dirty fecker. Brady just whines a lot.
I think they should have a field goal shootout. Move back 10 yards after every kick. 
Would you agree that Brady's performance was oodie-doodie great?
Yes. We know this. We know the Super Bowl wasn't decided on the toss of coin. But the toss gives one team an advantage. That's all we're saying. It seems a crazy way to decide such a major sporting event.
Always amazes me that the owner collects the trophy - guess that's a reflection of modern-day capitalism: workers do the work, owner gets the credit.
Anyway as an outsider, couple of questions:
Why was that last pass called pass interference? Seemed like he just knocked it off his hand, surely that's legitimate in a sport where almost anything goes?
Isn't it bit ridiculous to have the first touch-down wins in a possession-based game like American football? Winning the toss is a crazy advantage.
Are most of the quarterbacks in the game white? Why is that so?

NCAA overtime rules are much better. Settle everything on the field. Not influenced by a coin toss.
Suarez is a despicable human inflicted with some kind of personality disease.
Brady is nowhere near the childish, nastiness level. Probably hasn't been a US athlete that despicable since Ty Cobb. Well, unless we take into account the athletes that committed murder like Aaron Hernandez et al.

But youre relying on half your whole team, rather than the full element. Because of the luck of a coin toss one team gets that advantage.
Great OT sudden death
Haters gonna hate!
1) Because the defender made contact with the receiver before the receiver made contact with the ball.
2) You're gonna get mixed responses on this. My opinion as a person who actually coaches football as part of his job... yes, it's ridiculous. Both teams should get a possession (as they do in high school and college football)
3) Yes. I'd suppose for the same reasons that most running backs are black.
1. Till the receiver catches the ball he is almost untouchable. Minimal contact is allowed. When he has caught the ball it is clobbering time.
2. Is currently being argued in this thread.
3. There are a few black QBs. Russell Wilson, Teddy Bridgewater, Jameis Winston, Cam Newton and Geno Smith are all off the top of my head.
And cheaters cheat.
And have all the players but the kicker take the attempts!I think they should have a field goal shootout. Move back 10 yards after every kick.
Because he wasn't facing the ball. They'll usually call that interference when the hands are also in the face. Not always consistent, though.
Yes. It's definitely an unfair advantage. People will argue that it's more entertaining but both teams having a chance to settle the game on the field is far more entertaining in my eyes. There are plenty of thrillers in the NCAA version that NFL overtimes can't compare to.
Yes, because it's not a position that relies solely on crazy athleticism. It's more a thinking man's position mixed with some extent of relative athletcism that can be performed by more ethnic backgrounds than say RB or WR.
Ummmm so you know the super bowl was not decided by the coin toss yet end your post saying it was. Lol.
Please explain how they cheated this win, por favor.
Its completely fair when you consider all participants know the rules going into the game. It may seem a bit odd to someone just learning the rules from the outside. The Falcons had plenty of chances to thwart the Pats from scoring their final two TDs and preventing the game from even reaching OT, but they couldn't do it. So they were forced into a situation where the rules of OT were in play and it cost them. There's nothing unfair about it when both teams and all viewers know the rules going in.
Genious! Could you imagine Brady or one the the big fat linemen kicking a 50 yard field goal.
I don't believe I ever said that..
And who did Aaron Hernandez play for?
NCAA overtimes are clearly better
Holy shit!
Tonight we watched history get made. That Edelman catch will be talked about for the rest of forever. Brady absolutely cemented his place in the history books.
I didn't want them to win but I'm proud to have seen it live. Absolutely mind blowing.

That is... not sound logic
