  1. So, we already have the common folks and what the media is saying about the ball deflating, but lets ask some professionals that actually play in the NFL!

     

    http://www.foxsports.com/buzzer/story/deflategate-new-england-patriots-nfl-player-reaction-012115

     

    Here is the one that actually is very interesting:

     

    Graham Gano:

     

    (1/4)When checking the game balls, the refs check the psi indoors. This is frustrating bc the ball loses some pressure in cold weather...

    (2/4)... During our home playoff game this year I asked the official if he could check the psi outside again bc the ball felt flat and he...

    (3/4)...said he could not. I guess you can't blame the official for that. Rules are rules. Maybe the league will make some changes this...

    (4/4)...offseason. Sucks kicking a flat ball tho.

     

    Seahawks deflate gate? 

     

    ^ Obviously the NFL needs to make some changes this offseason.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

  2. It wasn't the refs fault. They checked the balls before hand. Sunbathing happened when the Patriots got them back, but keep blowing that horn.

     

    Who said I was blaming the refs? This is the Meme thread and its obviously for a reason.

  3. The fact of the matter is he is a Patriot employee. You were wrong. Your team is unethical. it's not the first time, and it probably won't be the last.

     

    If you are seriously going to try and discredit the proof because he is wearing a different variant than the one sold to the fans then I don't know what to say. Maybe you deserve the Patriots as your team. You fit well together.

     

     

    All ball handlers are monitored by the NFL, the balls are being put into play by NFL Officials, the ball boy brings the balls to the officials. If an error is made then its the officials fault. In this case the wrong ball was brought to play is all. Kicking ball instead of game ball.

    The balls are inside a sack, which all been checked by the NFL officials prior to the game. What else is there to say?

  4. Thank you for the video.

     

    You see this man, circled in red:

    He is responsible for the balls. You can see the ball boy removing them from the bag he is responsible for.

     

    Guess what he is a Patriot employee.

     

    His hat:

    and his jacket

    Both officially sold by the Patriots.

    He is an employee of the Patriots. And he is responsible for the game balls.

     

    That Jacket doesn't resemble the picture of the jacket you just posted. As far as the hat, 

  5. The Packers gave Seattle a belated Christmas present this year...

    They should have been up by 4 scores...but they blew it, Rodgers throwing that interception really killed that drive, that would have been the final nail in the coffin, but he didn't take advantage of it, he tried to do too much today...he needed everyone to step up, but they didn't. That two point conversion...I thought Tim Tebow was playing for the Hawks for a second...god was on their side.

  6. I am sure they will make announcements about eligible/ineligible players better next year, but I don't see this rule changing, all i see honestly is more improvements so it makes it easier for defenses to see who is eligible/ineligible.
