    When Fred Biletnikoff tried a comeback with the Montreal Alouettes in 1980, he tried using stickum, and the Canadian Football League quickly issued an edict that this would not be allowed, at a time when the NFL did still allow it. Rule 1 Section 10 Article 5: Illegal Substance was officially added to the CFL rule book in 1981.

    Remember when OBJ the NY Giants WRs went on the trip to Miami during playoff week, then went to Green Bay & lost? To this day I believe they had problems catching the ball because the tackified gloves don’t work in freezing temps. I remember the days of stickum being used through the 1980 season. It made footballs nasty & hilarious plays where the footballs stuck to players hands at times.

    Research MAGNETS in NFL Player's gloves!
    They react to magnets (pre-placed) in footballs.
    Lots of speculation whether or not this is the NFL allowing it to "fix" certain games...
    Or teams doing it themselves somehow.
    There are videos on it

      Yes, The Reason you'll *never see* an analysis video on how their slow, clunky receivers always managed to gain 5X times the separation of other teams' receivers was it would prove spy-gate _was_ being used in games because they always knew where to send their receivers in other teams' zones. Without it, who _knows_ how few rings they'd have.
      They even rubbed the fact that they were continuing this in the noses of the Eagles. In the super-bowl they _lost_ to them they tried each of the trick plays the Eagles had planned *before* the Eagles did, showing they had foreknowledge of 'em & _still_ lost.
      Every other great QB's highlights features them making amazing contested throws to covered receivers. Brady's shows him sometimes managing to hit his wide-open ones.

      If *everyone was using this & **_only HE put up those _**_#s_* then he was still getting more open than everyone else, & they weren't making the catches that he was.
      If he was the Only One using the stuff or even one of only a few I'd agree. When the rest of the players not using come out & expose this, you'll have a discussion.
