I’m from Atlanta and I don’t doubt the balls were slightly doctored. The problem is the Panthers and Vikings got caught doing the same thing and walked away with a $25k fine and no suspensions. The Chargers got caught on video putting stick um on their receivers hands and no loss of draft picks or suspensions. The…

Does anyone actually even care if they were?

I’m from “greater Boston”, and I think we all believe every team fucks with balls (Aaron Rodgers admitted to it e.g.). The NFL has some sort of score to settle with the Pats, that’s what is clear.

NOT the best a team can get...

At least he has his shaving empire to fall back on!

Welp better suspend Sean Payton for a year

Hard Knocks. But more perplexing, Simmons is lousy on camera.

Whenever someone tries to list all the NFL teams, the Titans are always the one they can’t seem to remember.

I was really supportive of your post yesterday, and you repay me by calling Batman a choad? TRUCE OVER.

I too had my pitchfork out and was upset about the original post and how it was handled. I felt resignations were in order, and I think they were needed.
