Coach Bill Belichick said he did not know of any issue with the Patriots game balls in Sundays AFC Championship, and did not learn the league was investigating his team until Monday morning. He also said he did not know how the Patriots footballs became underinflated during the game.

Each team has its own set of footballs. They don't share.
Some controversy....
Okay, they didn't need to cheat. So, why did they?
The way I see it is because we have multiple occurrences of cheating by this organization, it is a lack of institutional control by the coach and organization. Look at Sean Payton. There was no evidence of him being involved in the Saints one scandal and he was suspended for a whole season. The coach and organization need to make it clear that flirting with the rules resulting in a violation will be grounds for a benching or dismissal.
I’m beginning to think it’s all hype for Superbowl TV viewers. Like that North Korean movie The Interview.
I just embrace the hate. The only explanation for the winningest team in the NFL for the last 15 years HAS to be that they cheat. Not that these other loser franchises just stink and barely get to .500 every season... It’s because the Patriots cheat. Embrace the HATE! Every QB in the league does something to the balls to get them the way they want them. Eli, Rodgers, Donovan McNabb, even that loser from Tampa Bay. This is nothing but jealousy of the Pats and nothing more.
Turns out that the Patriots were using Flubber on their uniforms to prevent the Colts from tackling them as well.
It would make more sense to fine the organization and take away draft picks which the NFL will probably do. The NFL will NEVER suspend one of its biggest stars for something this minor.
Until I saw this..
What has that to do with his faith? His appearance in a PSA is nothing more than urging folks to get health insurance. I am sure he and Sherman were paid for their time but neither endorsed any policy.
Nothing in the ad, or regarding his rationale for being in the ad has any bearing on his faith in Christ.
Sure it does!
When you sell your soul to Satan that sure does have BEARING!!
If Obama ain’t Satan.. he sure is one of his foot soldiers.
What Christian supports the mass killing of the unborn?
Or.. in Obama’s case.. even taking it to the extent of killing those born alive the parents did not want.
And in Obama’s case.. using Obamacare to pay for these mass killings.
And Russell Wilson supports this and calls himself a Christian?
PLEASE
I like Russell Wilson, despite the ads, because he visits the Children’s Hospital.
Right now, there are 49’er fans everywhere who are wishing that someone in the 49’er organization had enough presence of mind to deflate game balls to the degree that a receiver could actually catch one of those passes he throws with zero touch....
Because he visits the children’s hospital huh?
So if Obama visited a children’s hospital you would suddenly become a fan?
Seriously? Provide one piece of evidence that R Wilson sold his soul. In the absence of that evidence, you are merely projecting and judging a believer.
Al Davis said it best— Just win, Baby...!
What is he advertising??????
He is promoting a system which advocates for the mass killing of the unborn!
What more evidence do you need?
He is promoting OBAMACARE!
Any Christian with the faith of a mustard seed would say NO!
Please get your facts straight - there was never a video of the Rams practice... sheesh...

Everyone wants to punish the best team in football for what amounts to a parking violation.
This whole thing is so overblown - I expect Holder to weigh in any moment.
It was the football fairy
Flubber and PAM on the uniforms, and the receivers had Stickum on their hands....
