Brady isn't the only top flight QB to have the footballs "doctored" in some manner, that didn't meet code. He got "caught" more due to jealousy than anything else.

A QB/team turned him in because they got tired of losing to Brady/Patriots.

People don't want to be accused of hating just because a team is winning. Doesn't seem the American way.

So they find reasons to hate on a team.

With Alabama, folks largely use a dislike of Saban to hate on Bama winning all the time.

Folks will develop a reason/reasons to hate on Clemson if their success remains unchecked.
