Bountygate wasn't cheating, though. Players were getting paid to potentially hurt other players. Guess what? In football you are going to hit other people as hard as you can every time, regardless of a bounty, because it's your job. People are going to get hurt either way. Sure, it was an unsavory tactic, but in reality it did absolutely NOTHING to change the outcome of games or put teams on uneven playing fields.

The difference is this: The Saints were assholes, The Patriots are cheaters.
