Learn 2 history. Watergate is the hotel where much of the scandal occurred. It was a nickname given to it by the media. In other words, they made up the definition themselves. Since then, -gate has been applied to a variety of scandals in and out of government by the same media. This includes "deflate-gate" and while I don't like it either, it's just as legitimate as any other scandal to which it's been applied.

Cope? After being called a dudebro by multicolor haired land whales and the white knights cucked by them the past six months, being called a nerd is refreshing.
Sounds like you're pretty used to not being respected. Must be why you live in a fantasy world where somebody putting your ego in its place somehow means you've gotten the best of them.

You've failed to state anything that contradicted my post. Just how badly were you aching to tell me I was wrong.

> caring this much about what I think/feel.
Hate to break this to you but I live in reality where I'm shitposting and you're still triggered by the phrase "hand-egg" enough to argue about it for like five hours.

I'm enjoying you throwing the word 'triggered' around as a desperate attempt to preserve your ego.

I don't think that word means what you think it means. Keep trying though. You're like a squirrel with a machine gun right now, keep firing and eventually you'll hit something.

It was the curse of Detroit. There was no way the Seahawks would escape it.

Losing side always cries that the fix was in. Winning side always denies it. But, yeah sports are very tightly controlled. These rich dudes aren't going to leave billions of dollars up to chance.
