It’s circumstantial evidence....how does that negate the facts that the tests on the football were not done properly ? Which as you know, means the so-called “evidence” is worthless. This case was never about Brady’s guilt, but about the powers that Article 46 has, and if the league can use them in almost an unlimited way.
You can bring up this hearsay & that hearsay, but it’s not proof. When you measure balls using different equipment, at different times, in different conditions....you have no Prima Facie evidence. It’s as plain as that.
If you have a single ref in charge of the process, then of course it will be "different times" (unless he could juggle doing both teams @ same time. Given that it only took the officials 9 minutes to gauge the Pat footballs...the "different times" line is really a joke.
Different conditions? Outside? Inside? (No)
This is basic: you need to use the same devices. Time is important when you are dealing with the “ideal gas law”. Conditions are important if the balls are at different temperatures....when you are dealing with fractional changes in PSI, time & conditions are all that matters. You have no understanding of what you are talking about.
Roger Goodell admitted today that Deflategate was not about the actual infraction, but about the collective bargaining agreement. Brady just happened to be in the wrong place at the right time. Aside from the science showing that this case was a farce, Goodell is SAYING in public that this was never about PSI.
