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

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?

90 seconds. Assume 30 seconds to get situated and exit and that's what about 5 seconds a ball to remove a very specific amount of air...

What do you think he was a wizard?

You ever stick an air pin in a ball and deflate it? If your pump has a button that lets air out, it can be done in 5 sec.

Your a biker, doesn't your air pump have what I'll call a quick release button to quickly dump the air out of it? Mine does.

To somewhat accurately manage 12 balls at 5 seconds each, you'd be nervous, if one is deflated too much you're going to get nailed, and just calmly walk out is pretty hard to believe.

You're talking about taking air out of a ball while watching the gauge, not disarming a friggin bomb !

You can knock your girlfriend out, get caught on film dragging her lifeless body out of an elevator and only get a 2 game suspension.

You get caught warming balls and get a warning, or rubbing them down with sticky substance and get $20,000 fine, so where is the equity in this similar tampering offense?

So inequitable, so unfair, loosing a first round pick is really not right; their own report suggests no other personnel were involved.

The penalty was bc it dealt with a level playing field and the integrity of the game. In many instances lying to someone about the coverup causes more penalties then if you come clean. The league felt they weren't honest.

You guys should be mad at Brady's attorney and whomever gave him the advice to not turn his text messages over to the league since they supposedely would have cleared him of any wrong doing. Those people caused his 4 games suspension.

The Players Union was adamant that he not turn over his email or phone records due to A. this NOT being a legal inquiry or proceeding, and B due to the precedent it would set.

Bottom line is the League desperately needs to get its priorities in order........

You say that but as a member of
The NFLPA it is my understanding they have no legal right to his personal items. Not to mention no one in the league office handed over their personal communication devices during the ray rice investigation(double standard)

This is also easy pickings. No one is talking about domestic abuse, concussions etc. Goodell poked the bear. He did it holding pillows, while his organization leaked like a sieve. The whole thing stinks and it all boils down to butt hurt in the NFL office from I resign as HC PF NYJ

You're supposed to capitalize it.
