Until this results in a game forfeit, no one cares.

OK, for the Superbowl, force Tom Brady to play with only 1 arm.

Part of the investigation that still needs further vetting is how the 11 footballs became under-inflated. The game balls provided to each team for preparation were required to be inspected and approved by referee Walt Anderson two hours and 15 minutes before kickoff before they were returned to each team. No alteration of footballs is allowed once they are approved, under league rules and regulations.

Sports Center tweeted just after 11 p.m. that the New England Patriots let air out of 11 of 12 game balls on Sunday.

That seems to be a bold statement.

I mean, it could be true. But they just leapt from "we found something" all the way over to "we know who did this". That might be called libel, unless you can absolutely prove it.

There were not immediately details on what punishment the Patriots could face.

heh, look at the source...”TheIndyChannel.com Staff”

You would think they would have a little bit of embarrassment...”It was the footballs! The footballs were tampered with! That’s why the Colts lost!”

Hehhehe, well, they are going to have to focus on something until next season...you would think it would be figuring out how to improve the team, but that might be too challenging for them...:)

I freekin hate Brady, can’t stand the idea that we lost to that ass again. Sounds like they cheated, but that sure as hell doesn’t account for that spread. The Colts blew that game, not flat footballs.
