Did they have any actual evidence that Brady did anything wrong?
It's "probable," according to the official statement. Unofficially, it seems very probable.
As far as I'm concerned, the league can do whatever it wants, but the right thing to do would be to issue whatever penalty is now on the books.
(And I'm a Pats fan.)
Overall, I think this whole thing is a tempest in a teapot.
The news media is treating this as though it is of earth-shattering importance NE Pats should not have deflated the balls, but, really, is this as serious as anything Hillary and Bill have done and are still doing to gather more power to them (and more money)?
I say, punish the football infractions after Hillary is run out of the presidential race.
I have link to the texts exchanged. Seems like he complained that the balls were too full but I don’t see anything where he wanted any rules broken.
if you want the link, let me know. but it’s jus confusing. sounds like brady pushed the envelope but didn’t do anything wrong, but panicked and called the two employees a lot after the charges were made.
Sounds like a rock solid case to me.
