If he did what he’s accused of it’s not even on the same level as a pitcher in baseball throwing a spit ball. The whole affair Is ridiculous.
Yup. Brady intentionally broke the rules, but the effect of slightly under-inflated footballs on the outcome of the game is miniscule.
In the Colts game, after the balls were switched at halftime, Brady racked up a lot more points. Then the Pats beat Seattle in the Super Bowl with regulation footballs.
Brady should suffer whatever penalty was on the books before the whole bruhaha, not some ridiculous penalty to placate a mob.
