Remember how yesterday during the AFC Championship Game when those Microsoft tablets that are on each NFL teams sideline just decided to stop working for the New England Patriots? Yeah, it caused a bit of a sensation on the Internet, with people starting the whole TabletGate rumor and going to town on mocking the situation.
While it was all in good fun—I think?—there are actually a few dumbass Pats fans who honestly think that the whole debacle was a scheme put on by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell as a way to stick it to Bill Belichick, Tom Brady and the boys for that whole DeflateGate thing from last season’s AFC title game.
No joke, here are a few things those drunk, pissed off, insane and/or outrageously poor loser Pats fans were tweeting:

Roger Goodell is smirking upon fiding out Patriots are having "tablet" problems. #mwahhaha #suckitkraft

Wow Microsoft teamed up with Roger Goodell to screw the patriots over and jam their tablet's signal #TabletGate

If this tablet situation was vice versa, the @Patriots would be summoned to court already

Want to know how Goodell can get back in good graces of a lot of fans? If he comes out and says “Pats tablet trouble? I was behind that.”

If those tablet issues were happening to Denver, they'd say it was the patriots who made them mess up

The tablets got fixed and the Pats lost because their kicker missed a PAT in the first quarter, forcing them to go for two after their final touchdown, I’m pretty sure the tablets didn’t really affect either one of those plays—but, go on, Pats fans, complain all you want to to come up with excuses.
