People may be angry at Belicheck and Brady, but it appears many were able to cash in due to their defeat last evening:

"The big underdog payoff for the Giants money-line backers meant a huge loss for Vegas," R.J. Bell of Pregame.com said.

"Some reports had over 90% of the money-line bets backing the Giants."

You said it well Chris. It is good to see justice occasionally in the world of sports or anywhere for that matter. And, as you pointed out, it doesn't always happen that way. I waited all year for the Patriots to get their reward for Spygate and had just about given up hope. But it was even more sweet this way, the game that mattered most they couldn't pull off. Any other loss in the season for these poor sportsmen they could have tolerated if they had won the Super Bowl.

The only thing I would add is that the sweetness of this justice was made all the better by two ironic facts. It was a New York team that was cheated on and a New York team that delivered the justice (I know the Jets and Giants are considered by many as bitter rivals, but not as much as the NY and Boston rivalry has been). The other fact is that it was defensive play calling that really beat the Patriots last night, the very thing Belechik was video-taping in the season opener.

Yeah, letting a team win 3 super bowls in 4 years and then go through an undefeated regular season while smashing the record books, then finally giving them their first championship loss under this new era is definitely a major sign of "karma" at work.

I don't even like the Patriots, but this is just silliness...

Why are you bringing Michelle Wie into it? All she did was make a mistake, and she has since learned that when she is taking a drop, to call over an official and spend half the day making sure it is correct, just like all the other players.

Max...it wasn't just a bad drop. If she would've dropped it correctly, she would not have been able to freely swing her club because of the tree. What a nice coincidence for her to "accidently" make a bad drop in that situation.

Good God Chris...get over "the bad drop." Give me one incident that a reporter was allowed to step off a distance from the drop to the flag, where Bumburger had to walk onto the green. I can just see him doing that to the Tiger...right!
