Can you read?

The claim is that the Pats balls dropped 1 PSI from the air temperature and 1 PSI from cooling after being rubbed down by the equipment managers. So that’s only 1 PSI from temperature.

If the Colts did not prep their balls before giving them to the refs, the balls would only be expected to drop 1 PSI due to the temperature difference. So they would have dropped less, despite being exposed to the same weather.

Prove this is not the case. Tell me exactly what the pressure of the Patriots balls were before the game. Tell me what the Colts balls were pressurized to before the game, and exactly what they read afterwards. With links to these numbers.

But you can’t. You’re just making up your “facts” to suit your prejudice.

So you are saying that perhaps all the Colt balls were pressured to the max allowed pressure of 13.5 psi per the teams preference.

And that their balls only dropped one PSI to the low end of the legal range?

You are not providing fäcts. You are parroting Belichick’s excuses from his presser today. There is no “fäct” that 11 of their footballs dropped 2 psi from a mixture of rubbing and climate. I heard Belichicks whole presser, you repeating it does not make his claims “facts”. Even in your convoluted claims you got his excuse wrong. Belichick said the footballs went UP in psi from the rubbing. He was all over the place and so are you.

Yup. If the Colts grabbed the bag of balls from the hold of the bus, and either topped them off or submitted them for the refs to adjust...trivial loss of pressure.
