He looks good for 54, never a fan of him though. I seem to remember him being full on himself on interviews.

And the NFL’s circumstanstial evidence against Brady is miniscule. They have vague texts and that’s about it.
Dear “former diehard Patriots fan” — perhaps you need to refresh your memory about what being a diehard fan means. There is no such thing as a “former” diehard fan.
Because he works for the owners...not the mob.
In 2012, the Chargers were fined 20,ooo dollars for rubbing a banned substance (stickum) on the football to gain a competitive advantage. No other punishment.
8 Years is a long-ass time to be considered “repeat offenders”. In almost every sports league including the NFL (cant say for all), most suspensions/fines on all players are partially based on the fact if the person is a repeat offender or not, which 99% of the time is only the last 2 years can be used. So, in sports,…
Doesn’t matter what I believe. I just go by the facts.
Despite the Patriots schadenfreude (the last pure sports emotion), the punishment is a fucked-up overreaction from a league hyperdesperate to protect its image—
I don’t think Kraft will sue. (Jerry Jones and Dan Snyder had stronger cases when the NFL hit them for $46 million in cap space for exceeding the “salary cap” in an uncapped year, and they didn’t sue.) But I do think there’s a timeline where this is looked back on as a pivotal moment, the first time Goodell chipped…
In fact, they proved the Patriots as an Organization didnt do the crime at all.
The NFL was too light on the domestic abuse scandals in 2014, so they have to recreate their tough guy image by throwing the book at the Patriots. The Wells Report specifically exonerates Bill Belichick, but then he gets punished by losing two draft picks? Brady is harshly punished because of previous history (i.e.,…
Well. Now I have to go watch Kickboxer, Bloodsport, Universal Soldier, and Timecop.
I just can’t believe this much attention has been focused on football air pressure, with all the problems facing this sport. To arbitrarily levy this kind of punishment, sullying the name of the greatest QB in the history of the game using flimsy evidence and a kangaroo court, is pretty mind-boggling.
Roger, Over and Out
I would think that (outside of Tom and the NFLPA) the only people that should have a potential to sue/win would be the two guys working for the Patriots that actually deflated the balls. If they had said no to deflating the balls, they would’ve gotten canned, but by doing so, now they get suspended. Seems shitty to…
Fellow New York Jets enthusiast, I presume?
By the end of this Rodger will no longer be commissioner. He decided to bite the hand that protects him with no actual facts supporting him. How can someone making 40 million+ be so stupid.
They never proved that he did the crime.
Probably one of your best takes...they clearly deserved something, but this is a case of Goodell pandering to the mob. Like John McCain talking about Jesus in Texas. I think Goodell and the NFL are fucked here. 1) Brady is going to appeal and win. 2) Brady could sue for defamation and though he probably wont win, the…
Can we get a top future headlines of Roger Goodell when he finally is no longer commissioner ranked post? Things like Roger Farewell or Roger Goodriddance. Maybe Roger Gohomeandliterallyfuckyourownface. Could be some good laughs!
