To be fair, even Aaron Rodgers said that "there should be a minimum air-pressure requirement but not a maximum. There's no advantage, in my opinion -- we're not kicking the football -- there's no advantage in having a pumped-up football." This essentially admits that under-inflating a ball DOES give a Qb an advantage in certain situations.
That's what Jackson Brown would sing to Darrell Hannah: "doctor my balls.." (before roughing her up). What's more, what does "11 out of 12" prove? Hell in a court of law doesn't that get you off the hook? A mere coincidence, move on, nothing to see here.
ESPN just had a bunch of NFL players feel the difference between a properly inflated ball and the one Brady was using. They ALL expressed that that there was a stark difference. In fact, Mark Brunell's first words upon gripping the deflated ball was "Wow!". Yet Brady and the Pats are acting like this is news to them. Brady and company are either full of shit or they've actually never handled a NFL approved football before to realize the obvious difference. Which is more plausible?
I don't think anyone has ever disputed that. Pretty much every ex-NFL QB talking head has stated that today. _
Doctoring the balls is 100% legal and a common practice by every QB in the league. There's an article about how it takes Eli months to get his balls the way he likes them. Intentionally deflating them under the required PSI is 100% illegal. And cheating. _
That's also not Mike Freeman's twitter, it's either a fake twitter or the poster just wrote it himself. For clarification, Freeman is @MikeFreemanNFL
My understanding is that the league holds the HC accountable for such transgressions. If true, the punishment is to be leveled against BB. They are not going to water-board and execute the ball boy.
The New England Patriots? The Patriot 'brand' can wear that "Classy" pendant that Kraft bought her but it's just a front. We all know that she's a dirty whore.
