Glad he is in for the Stillers Game! Hope it's a good Match! If Brady's out. Would not be fair for the Stiller fans! You Gotta play the Big Doggs ! If you want to go get another RING!
We're all guilty of being generally aware that deflategate is a bunch of garbage that went on much longer than it should have :grin:
Brady destroyed his cell phone because he knew it contained incriminating evidence against him. One of the ball guys was called "The Deflator" for a reason and it certainly wasn't because he was trying to lose weight like his ambulance chaser said it was. The Pattys and Belicheat were caught cheating against the Jets several years ago and they're probably stupid enough to try again in the future. The judge is probably a Pattys' season ticket holder. I applaud the commish for trying to keep these dishonest jerks in line....
This is simply a pissing contest between the Patriots and Gooddell. Since Gooddell is a mini-mind, he will appeal this decision and lose again. He will once and for all be shown to be the idiot that he is. BTW: The legal bills thus far have been north of $10,000,000. Wouldn't it have been nice if that money had been used to fight Cancer or Alzheimer's?
If you have not done so, take a look at the 40 page opinion I linked discussing the facts and the applicable law. The NFL Management Council and Goodell actually selected the New York federal district court in which this action was heard. The NFL Players Association wanted the case heard in Minnesota where such matters have historically have been litigated.
Nope. That is the myth. The balls were not even 2 psi low. They were mostly .5 to 1 psi low. Don't advance the myth any more than it is.
I really didn't care and think much about this deal one way or another, until I just read these two comments. What you two are implying is irrelevant. When I class raced snowmobiles, If we won we were immediately scaled. if we came in any pound under weight we were disqualified. Didn't matter if it was 1lb or 100lb. Same goes for cc'ing the combustion chamber...1cc under and they take the win away from you. there is a clear line drawn. Same thing goes in any type of motorsports or sport.
Percentagewise 1 psi is significant. Also, if balls are checked warm then sent to cold field they would lose a significant amount. Also, Brady admitted he liked to play with softer balls.
In the future they should set the air pressure in the balls in a room as the same air temperature at game time on the field. Then the ball will not loose air or gain air pressure!:idea2: Brilliant!!!
