I see the same parallel between the people who support Goodell on this and the Pro-Anthropogenic Global Warming people, for whom it is the following:
A.) An Emotional Issue (facts don’t matter to them and they manufacture the “science”, the same way Exponent was hired to cook up support for Goodell’s case against Brady and the Patriots. When they realized they couldn’t get Belichick, they went full bore for Brady, because this is personal to them.)
B.) A Power Grab (For global governance, revenue generation, and an equalization of opportunity, the same way Goodell wanted to exercise his power to show he had it, and because it is unfair that the Patriots are successful. Need to have parity, and this was just one more tool to hammer an outlier in place.)
C.) A Vendetta (against anyone ruining Gaia by burning gas or eating meat...the same way Goodell had it in for the Patriots)
Deflate gate. Like the eggplant that ate Chicago, it will eat your city soon.
How can a multi multi billion $ business like the NFL not figure out how to provide footballs that are regulation?
How do we get MIT scientists involved?
How do we get into Federal court?
It’s football, for crying out loud.
A game designed to keep coal miners off the streets - I think Artie Donovan said that.
