Suspension effective until summer practices begin?
No prob—more time for Brady at the gay bath houses.

He should be suspended for the smirk. One set of rules for the beautiful people another for the hoi polloi.

The charge:

Tom Brady “consciously cheated.”

The evidence:

The report concluded that it is “more probable than not” that the New England Patriots’ star quarterback, Tom Brady, was “at least generally aware” of the plan to deflate footballs used in the AFC Championship game against the Indianapolis Colts.

The punishment:

The fine for improperly inflated balls is $25,000.

For the league to suspend Brady for eight games would mean the league would be fining Brady $3.5 million — a four game suspension would mean a $1.75 million fine.

That seems excessive for “probably” breaking a rule’s that carries a $25,000 fine.

So why the overkill?

There is no hard evidence and what evidence they do have is not “beyond a reasonable doubt.” With that in mind, the fine is outrageous.

Personally, I wish America were as outraged at Barack Obama’s serial lying and lawlessness as they are about this tempest in a teacup.

If Brady is suspended, I sincerely hope it takes the decision to federal court.

I bet he wins there too.
