Balls + Heater = Low hanging fruit

"@SteveReedAP: Panthers say they have "no comment" on Patriots allegations they and the Vikings put balls in front of heaters during away game in 2014."

My question is who doesn't put their balls in front of the heater while in Minnesota? Have you not seen what a MN winter can do to the twig and berries?


A warm ball would only stay warm for a minute or two in those temps and both teams were doing it.


Every pun is fully intended.

4 hours until beer time. Woot!

Lol. The ole, "We're in trouble so look what they did!" routine.

Every time I see this I wonder what it is exactly that people don't get. Both teams did it. Both teams warned during the game. Both teams stopped. No cover up. No desire to flout the rules.

If teams need to be punished fine. But to connect the two as pretty much the same thing is irresponsible in my mind. Trying to be objective and not a homer.

Also...picture is accurate. Twigs and berries are in danger. Do something before it's too late. Think of the children!

Nobody wants to play with frozen balls. I guess you could wear a glove, but that would probably ruin the experience.

Without heaters, we would've been forced to warm our balls by hand

Wait, did the Patriots pull us into their drama for a game they weren't even a part of?

[KendrickPanther]

Do the Patriots have texts from a shady ball boy that calls himself "the heater" ?

[Cary Kollins]

And the Panthers and Vikes came clean about their balls.

SCP threads are the best threads. Lol

Dimpled gloves are OK. Even preferred.

that is what I was wondering myself. They really do look pathetic

It's literally the same tactic my 5 and 10 year old boys use when they get in trouble. "But he did it too!!!!"
