If you read Troy Vincent's letter - you can see why Reiss believes 118 is immediately forfeit. It says we cannot trade or encumber our highest picks. I think, unfortunately, that is actually probably not what the NFL meant, and it is just a result of the way Vincent organized those sentences...

Basically, I can't wait until this guy dies.

Yeah, well the jerk store called, Peyton, and they're running out of you. FWIW, it was revealed during Deflategate (by the Patriots wellsreportcontext, the NFL kept this detail out) that the Colts ball boys had been caught sneaking needles in their sleeves in the past. This could've been during...

IMO - this is not my experience either in the real world or the web, not for quite some time. Check Twitter, talk to any non-Pats fans football players. Even the reasonable ones think he is guilty of something, however trivial. They may think Goodell has been over the top, but his legacy has...

My suspicion is that Brady, unlike Cris Carter, was not willing to have a fall guy and ruin Jaz's life over this. By several accounts, including one absurd and likely fabricated story from a comedian which nonetheless aligns with what we've heard elsewhere, Brady was unwilling to throw Jaz /...

Justified indifference to public opinion is a luxury someone like Bill Belichick has earned, and can afford, but not Tom Brady. His life after football will be dictated heavily by his public image. He wants to act, model, and continue to live a public life. As much as he wants to say everyone...

BTW, Brady should murder whoever is in charge of his PR. Fire isn't strong enough. His camp has butchered this from an image point every step of the way, even when his actions were completely defensible and logical, they let others shape the narrative. There are two key things missing from his...

I disagree. He was beyond naive - he was foolish. This team was hosed by the league in 2007. He should've known another hack job was coming.

Of all of Brady's painful defeats, sb42, sb46, 06 & 16 afccgs, this one hurts the most. Congratulations to Roger Goodell. Now 31 fanbases get to call the GOAT a cheater for the rest of his life.

Understandable, but I don't agree with the decision. I'm sure he did what was in the best interest of the team. He should be doing whats in the best interest of TB12. Oh well. Man, I hate Deflategate.

How many times have we said Brady was going to be usurped by so-and-so. People were projecting the end of Brady with drafting of O'Connell, with Cassel's success, with Mallet's drafting, and now Jimmy G. Greg Bedard all but guaranteed Brady wouldn't be playing for the Patriots this season, and...

Zo and Flynn, and you, are exactly right. Dukes' and Canty's comments are completely asinine. I'm not even sure its hyperbole when Flynn says its one of the dumbest things he's ever heard. It truly is. The world always has been and always will be full of awful things happening every day, all...

I saw the NYT editorial board echoed similar opinions. I have to disagree. Trump's stupidity, immaturity, and lack of qualifications for the position is so egregious that every person of authority has the responsibility to voice their objection. Condemning Trump for the threat that he is not a...

Not surprised, but still disappointed. At this point, I've given up on the games as a practical matter, but he should continue fighting on principle. Can he file a defamation suit at any time? That's what I really want to see.

My father is a bit of a pessimist fan - not only is he a little reserved in his nature, but he sort of likes to play it cool compared to me & my mother, who are unabashed homers. I went home to watch Super Bowl 42 with them. I'll never forget the pass from Eli to the sideline that should've...

Fair points. I would say you've identified the biggest factor (winning) but I would still argue media is a contributing factor for the general perception of BB.

1) Belichick rightfully sees these dumbasses as a waste of time. Journalists are pretty dumb. 2) All BB cares about is winning, and they can't do anything to help him do that. However, thanks to the arrogance of the media, Belichick's dismissal of the press has actually probably caused more...

http://www.climateaudit.info/pdf/deflategate/mcintyre_new%20light_on_deflategate_submitted.pdf The big takeaway here is he is saying Exponent ignored the fact that Jastremski's rubbing would have an effect on the PSI of the balls he submitted, and that if Anderson used the higher gauge, they...

This is all true, but it doesn't change the optics. And that's all Goodell needed. ---------- Post added at 11:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 AM ---------- Sadly, you can blame Kessler for it. He was the first one to use it if you look at the Appeal Hearing transcript from last...
