Why are we even discussing it? sigh. This has already been concluded. NFL will not dish out 3million dollars worth of fines if they don’t have enough to go on. I will post this once again.

Yes that is true, but this is not zero evidence.

You are preaching to the choir re: rice. so stop. Read all of that report. It is almost certain that the “deflator” was deflating balls after the refs checked them and you are convinced that Brady did not know this. Ok thats your opinion. However brady also lied about knowing the “deflator”... yet

He lied about knowing anything about whole deflation scandal AND the knowing the people involved; one of whom who then proceeded to testify that Brady did indeed know them.

maybe... I don’t know but whatever it means... YOU are in it with me ! welcome brother!

Maybe this is part of the NFL’s evolution. They are finally getting serious about the punishments they hand out for cheating? who knows. They could have decided that they wanted to start clamping down on PSI cheats yesterday, it’s irrelevant when they decided to do so unless there is a tacit agreement with the teams…

I don’t know anything about that, Like I said NFL is inconsistent... plus there is the added fact that there is a method of increasing punishment to “finally” stamp this shit out. Maybe if the punishments had been this severe with the other cases, we would never had had deflategate.

These are only a few of the lowlights. There’s much more, like the claim that Kinsman “intentionally and unjustifiably” interfered with Winston’s relationship with NFL teams, an interesting thing to point out considering the Buccaneers never contacted her.

That is considerably less dramatic than what I saw in the movies... :(

It would seem that the fine the NFL levied out the first time was not sufficient to deter people so they have upped it??? Who knows?

Yes the NFL is inconsistent... we know this. However my point is that it is no surprise that the NFL treats personal issues a bit different to game related issues.

LMFAO

I think in Brady’s case it is more than just the PSI of the balls. When asked by the NFL and the Media about knowing ANYTHING about the case. He said he knew nothing. When asked whether he knew the men involved, he said he did not know them, yet there are text messages from his phone which show him texting the man and…

AFAIK, brady said that he didn’t knoow any of the men, yet the text messages proved that not only did he know them but he also had a meeting with them during this ordeal? something like that.

well.. yes and know... to you and me yes. But to a machine trying to maximise profits... no!

yes and it has punishments for breaking those rules... the punishment happens to be less than that for cheating....

also... isnt the brady’s punishment more to do with the fact that he straight up lied to the NFL about the whole thing (which we can be 100% sure of). Its always the lies that gets people into trouble!

just for the record... I am not saying I agree with it necessarily, but that must be the thinking.

I think because one offense is directly related to the game and the other is outside of the scope of the game?

when tiger was destroying everyone everyone... ??
