This is AMERICA what ever happened to innocent until proven guilty.. real proof ...not hear -say... ...people are being executed in the streets...leaders of countries are dyeing... two very important trials for REAL crimes are taking place in the city of Boston....our own congress is stealing our money through lies and deception and "deflategate" heads up the world news at 6:00.... this county has truly gone off the rails... all over 2 PSI...the amount of air equal to the weight of a dollar bill....I'm disgusted by it all...the only thing left to do is to fish heavily to compensate....

Or Tom pulled a Brad Johnson and slipped the ball boy a few G's tolower the psi... is the leage really going to fine the golden one? I'm sure this happens league wide in some way. This will fade away
ultimately, a non-issue in the Colts crushing. One of the colts said it best, the pats could have used soap and won!

I can't believe that the NFL has not come out and said anything. Frankly this whole thing has been ruining my whole Super Bowl experience. I would love to be talking about the Pats stopping Marshawn Lynch and who Sherman is going to cover etc. Instead we are talking about a small difference in psi in game balls that had no effect on the outcome of a game

I was surprised that Brady did not let us know what happened which makes me think that he was lying. I say this because even if he did not have anything to do with the under inflation (doubtful) at the very least he would know who did. Even if he figured it out after the fact. If I am having my butt hauled out in front of the press you bet for sure I am going to want to know what the hell happened. He didn't do that? I have a hard time believing that

Y would Brady know who did it if it is up to the ref to test every ball and then balls R secured till game time???? and then half time the ball guy with the red X on his shirt is responsible to secure the balls at half time....And if it is the refs job maybe they were laxed in doing their job and never did inspect footballs

As it has been known for refs to cheat betting on teams to win such as in basketball maybe the ref responsible was betting on the Patriots to win....

I am over this.... No longer disappointed with the team in any way, shape, or form. As noted; the NFL's silence is deafening... If it hasn't been dealt with by now, I doubt we will see much, if anything going forward. If they do come out with damning proof, I will reassess my thoughts on the whole franchise. But until then, I am back to enjoying the ride to the game. Going to laugh at the haters and enjoy what should be a very very good game of football.

Something that some of us with unclouded vision have been saying all along...

I think it's time for Roger Goodell to move on. He's obviously not very good at what he does based on this and other recent events.
