NFL is problem not Pats

[MAKAI]

Don't know why the deflators even turned over their phones.
It's personal and private. This isn't a criminal investigation.
Last time I checked all conversation is considered private anyway.

I read they turned phone over because phose were property of the Patriots. Brady's is personal so that appears to be the difference.

Also, do you think Brady would have risked his personal conversations and even photos being out of his control unless it was subpoened?

Not a chance with all the haters out there.

Patrick just posted this on Facebook - its a great perspective on what some may call cheating and others call it "gaining a competitive advantage".

whatever the suspension is.... I hope Brady gets mad.. comes back and jams it up everyone's ace and goes undefeated for his remaining games, and RUN-UP the damn scores as high as possible.

I want to see games with scores like 65 to 7....

[GregW]

Who cares???
It's a game. And they used a "scientific consulting firm" that was also quoted as saying cigarette smoke can't cause cancer.
I'm not political at all- but I find it insane that Tom Brady not handing over his cell phone for an investigation about the psi of a football gets more coverage than Hillary deleting all her emails surrounding her investigation that literally cost lives. People need lives or to re-order their priorities.

[Rockport24]

amen Greg!!! If people put as much energy into productive things as they do into stupid professional sports, the world would be a much better place. Watch the games, be entertained and be done with it. It's not like fishing - we obsess over every little detail on these pages and it results in everybody being a better fisherman - real results! Sports fans obsess over every little detail and where does it get them? An overall more stupid population that would much rather see their children succeed at sports than academics.

[Sea Flat]

The NFL hires a firm to do the investigating. So surprising that the NFL has been found with no fault at all for how they botched this up. Two pressure gages with two different results. Colts footballs having 3 of 4 tested under inflated with one of the gages. NFL screwed this up so bad it's embarrassing. Even if the Pats did do something wrong the NFL's dealing with it on AFC Championship game day could not have been worse.

I think its the Patriots that should be fined just for having this roque moron McNally work for them.

At 6:30 with 10 minutes till kickoff, McNally decides to take the approved and marked bag of balls out of the Officials Locker room (that has a bathroom with 3 urinals and 3 toilets) and without permission takes them down the tunnel and into a single bathroom to what he said latter was to use the urinal there during the mysterious 1 minute and 40 seconds. But Genius was told during questioning that there was no urinal in that bathroom so he had to change his story a few times.

So with 5 minutes to kickoff, the officials cannot find the balls, they have an officials run back to get the back up balls and finally they see McNally and the balls on the sidelines.

So we have an AFC Championship game where they cannot find the Patriot balls when 50 million people are ready to watch the game.

I think McNally may have acted alone because he is that nuts.

McNally may be nuts but Brady was also nuts saying he didn't know him when that was a lie.

Not true
That is taken out of context

If you follow the question , it was worded at a previous time

How many games will the NFL suspend themselves for sheer incompetence ?
This witch hum is way out of hand at this point
No kid was beaten, no girlfriend was beaten, no one was murdered, no drugs were taken(well maybe by McNally) and it had no impact on the game or the integrity of the game so why all the hyperbole about multiple game suspensions?

Hard to find any silver lining in the absolute screwing the NFL just gave us, but it will be fun to see what the kid can do. It would be poetic justice for him to go 4-0, Tom come in and just crush the rest of the teams and go undefeated to a 5th SB. Yeah I'm a dreamer, but the NFL deserves it and wouldn't that piss all the Pats haters off.

[Slipknot]

Ya it would Bob, but the haters would still put asterisks on it anyway.

[Slipknot]

If 4 games hold up, I see the score in the Indy game being 78 - 0

Kraft is PISSED
and the players are pissed

I was wondering when you would start calling people haters again.

[wader-dad]

I understand you guys are upset- but when the report came out that video surveillance showed a Patriot employee taking all the game balls into a private bathroom with 10 minutes remaining before kickoff- didn't you say to yourself- uh that's not good. Wasn't that kind of bad news?

hey I LIKE IT i'll go with that dream

[PaulS]

So he is going to take a 4 game suspension bc he doesn't want to go against the union? That would mean his allegiance lies with the union and not the Patriots. I don't believe that.

Exactly. Something isn't right about that.... He'll appeal, get 1 or 2 games, and some guilt will remain implied...

[afterhours]

i hear brady retained jeffery kessler, hopefully they come out swimging.

there should be an app that AUTO deletes all stored info
