I was watching a news program.

They had 2 footballs. One with 11psi and one with 12psi.

The one newscaster handed the footballs to another and asked if they could tell which one was heavier.

HEAVIER???

As in the 60’s at Woodstock on acid:

“Heavyyyy Man....!”

The newscast I saw asked people if they could just tell the difference. Most people could not -- while holding both balls, one in each hand.

I find it unlikely that even a professional could hold one ball and say, "Waitaminute ... this is NOT 12.5 psi!! This is 12 psi, man!"

The whole this is senseless hype.

And the fine for Ball Tampering is just $75,000.

It's NOT a big deal, and the Patriots kicked ass in the second half when we KNOW the balls were all legal. There is just nothing to this issue except a drive for Super Bowl ratings.
