The Sour Grapes gang, starting with Mark Brunell...

[flasox27]

If you look up loser in the dictionary, you see a picture of Brunell

 

[Wiluven]

LOL Brunnell just stated that Tom Brady had his chance to make this problem go away if he admitted to it but since he didn't admit to it, then this problem isn't going to go away any time soon.

Are you ****ing stupid?! Let's just pretend Tom Brady knows exactly what happened (which I feel he didn't) - if he admitted to it, the problem would just go away Brunnell? Wow.....

 

[luuked]

I really didn't mind Kraft working it behind the scenes, but he has to know that with the way ESPN is totally propagandizing against Brady, he has more to worry about with his fanbase.

Kraft is going to lose me here. He really is. I'm shocked that the NFL is dragging this out. I dont want Kraft to say something publicly but he has to push this forward.

His chance to work this behind the scenes was in the beginning before it all exploded.

Once they started a totally baseless witchhunt on Belichick he should have stepped up and at least asked people about the language they were using.

Now that the mob moved from BB to Brady it should be a no-brainer to speak out.

The media that was present at the presser seemed more like a group of zombies from the Walking Dead than anything with a working brain.

It's not usually a good idea to go on national television and claim someone is lying with no evidence. That's why you don't see the professional reporters do it.

I would say Brady should sue him but the guy doesn't have 2 cents to his name so it's not worth the effort.

Add Troy Aikman to the list of ass clowns: Aikman: Patriots' punishment should exceed Saints' in bounty scandal

Kraft is going to lose me here.

Sorry to hear that.

Personally, I think you're over-reacting.

I'm shocked that the NFL is dragging this out.

Personally, I think it starts to drop off the radar tomorrow.

Indeed he needs to "stay above the fray" so that if/when he decides to weigh in, people will take notice.

 

[Grizzafted]

Ok at this point this scandal is totally jumping the shark. Look how serious these guys are taking this. People paid millions to talk about a game where grown men smash into each other with a football tearing up on national TV because a ball wasn't fully inflated...LMAO.

I mean come on people can we laugh a bit about this? Tom Brady actually went on live TV and said "some guys like their balls old, some like them smooth, some like them big, some like them small" and this guy's reaction is to choke back tears... Absurd.

 

[BlueThunder]

Totally a witch hunt from what I can see. Brunell is obviously biased against Brady...Is he jealous that Tom has 3 rings?

Bettis believed BB but thought Brady would admit to telling the EM to deflate the balls...OOPS Didn't happen so with Jerome's theory went out the window and he's disappointed in Tom...BFD Tom didn't tell the EM to do anything......Dawkins is about the only one that has a level head there and gave the wait and see answer.....

Hope they can prove low end psi inflation to begin with(12.5 psi) and temperature and testing let enough air out to be the answer. Either that or faulty gauges/equipment.

I think you're under reacting. This has consequences for free agents, players in the future, etc. Brady is the face of the franchise. You have the NFLs broadcast partner calling him a liar.

Personally, I think it starts to drop off the radar tomorrow.

[50-yard-line]

I was honestly stunned to see 8 people (the four on the panel and the four loudmouths on Around the Horn after it) flat out accuse BB and TB of lying without any evidence.

That is amazing. You have Joe Thiesmann saying he couldn't tell the difference between the two balls when he specified that they were to be pumped to 11 and 13 respectively.

Amazing. Absolutely amazing.

 

[Tunescribe]

Add Brian Westbrook to the list of bitter morons. He said on CSN (AFTER today's press conferences) that the Patriots should be penalized double the cameragate sanctions because Roger Goodell "is all about the shield." What a fool. How do these idiots get compensated for being media tools?

Oh my god, I thought it was an exaggeration.

 

[BradyFTW!]

Someone should probably tell Brunell that Joe Theismann and Dan Marino disagree with him, and have openly said that they can't tell the difference between 13psi and 11psi.

Tiebreaker goes to the QBs who didn't suck.

Was it ever stated how far below 12.5 psi that the balls tested out to?

The Patriots have beaten up on everybody the last 15 years. They have a winning record against every team. Why are we surprised that many former players (who are supremely egotistical, competitive people) are taking advantage of the opportunity to bash the patriots and call them cheaters? Their egos literally won't allow them to do anything else.

My Dad taught me about honor.

First rule is that you do not accuse someone of something nefarious without solid evidence.

I'm so mad right now, I'm shaking. Seriously

 

[RobertWeathers]

I think Brunell is just capitalizing on this whole thing to make a name for himself as an analyst.

Everyone has down times....but wow. He really f-ed up.

[Haley]

Brunell is already paying for this. People on reddit from all teams are calling him out for these shenanigans (as well as the rest of the press for being downright mean). It is so obvious he has an agenda here and that isn't lost on football fans. Either he backpeddles and shuts up or he's going to sit there and make himself look like a ruthless hater.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Oh my god, I thought it was an exaggeration.

I didnt watch but for ESPN to have a banner saying "Deflategate" complete BS.
