Brady won't be suspended

the ball boy will be fired

..and Kraft will have to cough up a couple of million out of the dozens of millions he will get for the Patriots being in the SuperBowl

...and the new NFL rule, I predict, is that they will play every down with uniform, league provided balls..

Like should have been happening all along

..who knows how many games thruout the season (the decade?) were played with "team" (any team)provided, "customized" footballs on offense

..that's why they had "team" sourced balls for gods sake

There was a reason the NFL was good with it..Patriots just happened to get caught

"I wonder if the NFL will succumb to the pressure of suspending Brady for the Super Bowl game."

LMAO. Every QB gets the ball he wants, so he'd have to suspend most of them. Saw an interview with an old QB who said he wanted to experiment, and tested 13 PSI (mid range) and it felt puffy. Then he tried 11, and it was like every ball he used in his career.
The problem is that lots of people can't face the fact that they aren't as good as NE. John Madden knows shit about how his QB liked the ball. It was too far below his pay grade.

The only scandal is how much ink and air time is being wasted on this. Schools are closing cuz of a disease far more dangerous than Ebola, and all the media can do is fondle balls.

John Madden: Tom Brady to blame, not Bill Belichick, for Patriots’ Deflategate

Now this guy knows something about football.. I wonder if the NFL will succumb to the pressure of suspending Brady for the Super Bowl game. Just have to wait and see.

No way. They will just fine him........assuredly less than the amt Marshawn Lynch was fined for his crotch grab.
