Deflategate ---------Round II

[cezero]

NFL LOST, move on.

So Tom Brady is allowed due process, but the NFL isn't.

Interesting take.

 

[BigKen]

NFLPA has already said they appeal to the US Supreme Court if the Berman ruling is overturned. They realize they made a mistake letting Goodell be the Judge, Jury and Executioner. He's totally screwed up every suspension and most fines.

When this CBA is over, the NFLPA will walk and they will stay out for at least one if not, two seasons. They want Goodell gone, along with the batshit bunch at NFL HQ. The owners best find a sucker insurance company to float their boat, because this one has big holes and there ain't enough fingers to plug 'em.

Didn't the NFL go to court with Brady? Didn't they lose as well?

Yes, that's what we're talking about. There's an appellate system in place, and the NFL is doing nothing wrong by using it. "You lost get over it" is a childish point of view.

The good news for Pats fans is that the NFL is going to lose again.

it's not a childish viewpoint... This was dragged on for how long? NFL already has major egg on it's face. Time to just man up and let it go.. BOTH SIDES!

So adjust the entire appellate system. For Tom Brady.

Not childish at all.

IMHO, the only childish (actually ridiculous) thing about this whole affair is that it has gotten this far. This is not a major capitol offense like murder and it shouldn't be treated as if it was. There should have been ample opportunity for the involved parties to sit down and work something out, just like Judge Berman has urged. Now there is talk of this matter going all the way to the US Supreme Court. Give me a break! The NFL has reportedly spent over a quarter of a million dollars on this fiasco and I'm sure the NFLPA has racked up some sizable costs as well (Jeffery Kessler doesn't come cheap). As usual, the ultimate losers here will be the fans who will probably be forced to swallow even more bloated prices for game day tickets to recoup the money spent on wealthy lawyers by both sides.

The NFL has spent more than a $25M so far and the NFLPA has spent about $15M.

BOTH SIDES need to let it go! What part of that don't you get?

Yes, you've made it clear that the NFL should forfeit it's right to due process.

Because Tom Brady.

It all makes perfect sense in your brain, I'm sure.

idiot... BOTH sides need to drop it... Can't you read?

I highly doubt you'd be spewing this crap if this happened to the Seahawks and Wilson

So you don't think the appellate system needs to be overhauled for Tom Brady, and the NFL is fine with partaking in the due process it's afforded under the law.

Good to see.

If it happened to Wilson and the Seahawks, I probably wouldn't care for it. And I don't blame you for not liking it. But as an adult with the faculty of reason, I understand that the appellate system shouldn't be altered to cater to the fans of 1 NFL player.

Fair enough. But in all honesty it never should have gotten this far. Hell it's a psi of a football... Yes the Patriots probably did something and Brady but Goodell botched the shiat out of this to begin with.

 

[BigKen]

All I want to see is P-R-O-O-F that anyone did anything. Not guessing, not generally aware, not supposition, not suspicion........P-R-O-O-F. In more than a year, there has been NO concrete evidence that ANYTHING was done.

You can hate the Patriots and hate Tom Brady all you want. But PROVE that anyone conspired to do ANY FUCKING THING. Then provide POSITIVE PROOF.

OTHERWISE SHUT THE FUCK UP ! ! !

Yeah, I was trolling for the most part.

hahaha... Until your last post (before this one) I didn't even realize this was on the Pats team board... Thought it was on the NFL Board

 

[SDGuy73]

It's looking as though the NFL's lawyer made "mistakes" (lied) a few times during the hearing.

Uncorrected mistakes could hurt NFL’s credibility with appeals court

In before Hammer or Dirt say PFT is a Boston enterprise or that daddy Kraft paid them off,

 

[Center Ice]

So Aaron Rogers already admitted to over inflating footballs and Joe Montana admitted to his o/line spraying silicone on their unis to make them harder to grab on to.

The only 2 constants in football are:

1. Everybody cheats.

2. Goodell is a moron.
