I like that this was all started because D'Qwell Jackson realized there was no way he could intercept a regular football like that.

I would just love to be a fly on the wall in the Pats FO right now. All hell is probably breaking lose. I can't wait for the press release / conference.

whatis posted:make the pats play with overinflated balls in the superbowl imo Replay Pats vs Colts with the Pats having to use properly inflated balls and the Colts having to be intoxicated with each player possessing an entire trash bag full of narcotics.

Hopefully the Pats win. When Brady takes the podium and accepts the trophy, he should look Goodell straight in the eyes and say, 'this is for Bill', and just walk off.

The biggest penalty is gonna be some loss of a 6th round pick or some bullshit but I'm gonna lol so hard if Belichick gets suspended for the Super Bowl or something.

If the pats did do it I'd actually bet they hosed with the tempature before testing by using hot air or warming the balls so the cold air deflated them naturally. Which actually might technically not be a violation under the strict wording of the rule which only forbids tampering after the inspection. If I was going to try to pull this off that's how id do it.

I hope Belichick gets suspended for the super bowl, but ends up on the sideline in disguise Bobby Valentine style.

Considering Bill's explanation of considering a domed stadium as being a roof in Spygate, I'm almost certain they did something like this if they actually intentionally did it.

The most no win thing for BB would be for him to get suspended for the Superbowl. They lose and nothing but what-ifs and did BB's cheating cost the Pats a Superbowl win. They win, and he becomes expendable.

There's no way you'd lose 1-2 pounds of PSI just from weather and usage, right? On all but one ball? And while the story doesn't make this clear, these are the 12 balls the Patriots had reserved for their own offense, correct? The Colts had their own 12 balls reserved? If the Colts' weren't also underinflated by roughly the same amount, hoo boy.

If this is what they actually did I'm going to take my love of the Pats, which is already at an all-time high, and kick it up one more notch.

It sounds like they are measuring by weight/mass rather than pressure so that wouldn't have any impact? If that's true though 2 lbs is a loving huge quantity of air. The damned things must have been almost flat.

BTW, if you have a football in your house and a gauge check it out. 2 PSI is a noticeable difference.
