What no one said on the deflategate issue, the balls were stored in freezers and used nitrogen in the inflation of the balls. A science professor showed by bringing the balls out of the freezers, the balls lost pressure due to change of temperature as nitrogen has this characteristic. I'm not condoning the tampering for any sport from driving to piloting to bowling, hitting, kicking, punching, etc. But don't forget about the Russian fenced who altered the electronic scoring system built into his rapie. He would get points for striking his opponents when he hadn't.

The rest aren't cheating situations so they also wouldn't fit the video: The whole situation with the Blackhawks and Kyle Beach back in 2010 (though the stuff didn't become public until a couple years back). Todd Bertuzzi on Steve Moore. 4th line career goon Marty McSorley using an illegal curve to take a 2-handed swing at Donald Brashear straight to his temple. He was found guilty of assault with a weapon and was sentenced to 18 months of probation. Brett Hull's foot being in the crease on the 3OT game winner in the 1999 cup final. Going to something recent that was within the rules but people thought of it as cheating, the Lightning winning the cup with a roster that was around $18M over the salary cap due to LTIR usage.

@musickbed Год назад

The cricket scandal is an interesting one. Yes, they tried to use sandpaper to alter the ball, but ball altering has been done ever since cricket was invented, and done in many different ways. The use of a foreign substance (sandpaper) to alter the ball is also not new. Players have used fingernails, teeth, bottle cap, zippers, shoe spikes, and other ways over the years, The trio were given the customary one game ban by the governing body of the game, at the time. They were penalized, but it became a huge deal. The one year ban was given by Cricket Australia, which was incredibly too harsh. The players were crucified by the Australian media, government, public, and the international cricketing public because of it, even though they had only just begun to try it. The hypocrisy of condemning them for this when other past, more egregious cheating overlooked, and forgiven is shameful. There is more to the story that will hopefully come out when the players involved retire and tell more.
