Just and Fair
Everything Lynx is saying is based upon the assumption that the punishment is just and fair, and based only upon the potential benefit to the Patriots from the video.
I am trying to make the point that the more likely scenario is that the punishment is neither just nor fair, and that it is not based upon the potential benefit to the Patriots from the video. I believe the punishment is much more about the Patriots daring to flaunt the authority of the NFL.
Having said that, I will also say this:
Yes, Lynx, if the punishment truly is appropriate to the crime, there must have been some large benefit to the Patriots.
