They should. It is much more important "for the integrity of the game" that the refs do their job and secure a level playing field, even if that means a last minute check of the balls.

The refs shouldn't be held accountable for Brady trying to cheat the system.

My, my, you are dense ... pretty simple, the refs need to check the balls, they do it in all games that use balls.

The NFL is partly to blame for not having the officials handle the game balls but Brady thought he could break the rule. It is not a minor incident in my opinion and Brady should be glad he was only suspended for 4 games.
And your proof that Brady thought he could break the rule is what exactly?

Having the equipment folks deflate the footballs contrary to NFL policy.

They did check the balls and it was discovered that they were deflated.

And again you know this occurred how? Because of a faulty $5 million report? Or maybe you where there? If it was as cut and dry as you are trying to make it, this case woukd be closed.

Ahem, ... before the game not after some dude tells the ref he thinks the ball feels low at half time.

Try to be objective rather than being a homer.
