Thing is: Brady and BB are saying it was the weather. Okay, so why weren’t the Colt’s footballs affected? And why only what, 11 out of the 12 they found???

Take a deep breath and think a minute. From the warm training room to a cold field balls always lose about one psi air pressure. Except for the kicker’s ball wich is kept under somebody’s coat to keep it flexible. The real question is: “how did the Colts keep their footballs from losing pressure?”

And by the way the above story could have mentioned that Brady gave up big bucks to help build the team that plays with him. He’s also the only one left from his first superbowl team. The rest are newbies who will be grateful as hell if he can lead them to one. Jealous sniveling is not becoming but that’s what most of the diatribe really is. Along with demonstrating how few people actually passed high school physics.

The story also could have mentioned that Payton Manning is the other half of the crew that lobbied the rules committee to institute the rule letting QB’s choose their own game balls——and nobody else really cares.

I played a bunch of football back when and I don’t remember anybody giving a rip about how much air was in the balls-—except maybe a kicker——who wasn’t really a football player——just a k i c k e r.
