(Merged x3) It's All Happening!!! PFT Now Blames The NFL For Tarnishing The PATS Image


I'm sorry guys, but as exciting and revealing as yesterday's story seemed, I really don't see much of a change in the narrative out there today. Its the same mediots making the same unsubstantiated allegations, all gleefully willing to defy reason, science and common sense in order to continue a story that by anyone with a wit of sanity knows isn't a story at all. One less pound of pressure on a cold night is NOT going to give anyone any competitive advantage. Yet here we are watching our team being looked on like they were shaving points or playing with 12 guys. And this is AFTER he revelations of yesterday

Here's my fear. Bob Kraft is not going to back down. He is not going to accept any so called face saving punishment from Goodell, and I bet he told him so at his party. The fear is that Goodell is such an idiot that he stupid enough to start that fight. He really is that BAD at his job.

I expected to se a change in the narrative today, but I haven't seen it, and it worries me.

By the way, thank Curran for the Jets connection.

(Also, Westhoff is a bitter twit. How long are these NFL folks are going to be allowed to air their "we know they've been doing something but we don't know what it is and we've never been able to prove it" crap? Whining losers. And people say Belichick is paranoid.)

Why would anyone in the media talk to Mike Westhoff about the Patriots supposed cheating allegations? Oh, wait: http://sports.espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/news/story?id=5928044 - It turns out that he's an expert at supposition when asked about rule violations with regards to the Patriots.

I dared myself to listen to some media today after hearing what was reported.

I still get the assembled cast saying, but why weren't the Indy balls deflated. Why on the surface, this argument appears valid. But, if you consider the fact that science is at play, maybe they need to ask the question, "Why weren't the Indy balls deflated?".

Same old crap, Patriots are always at fault. People (media types) need to apply some critical thinking in this process and figure out what information is missing and why hasn't the league been more transparent in their investigation. A simple statement on Friday, when their lead man led people to believe it would be a 2-3 day investigation on their overall plan wouldn't hurt.
 
Wow, this was reported by Sharks of Vegas on Twitter last night, as some will remember. Very interested in what they have to say next, now....
I think Curran was the guy who first came out with the Mike Kensil connection. I wonder where he got it. :)

Of course, they are completely ignoring Bill Belichick's statement that their equipment staff vigorously rubs each football down before giving them to the referees, thereby increasing the temperature of the ball. Unless the Colts follow the same procedure, there is little chance that their footballs would have the same pressure drop. Their initial temp started out lower.
 
Sorry...which friend? Goody or Kensil? Kensil and Kraft are friends?

Sorry, I wasn't clear, I meant Goodell. I don't know what relationship he has with Kensil, if any.

Stop with the Sharks nonsense.
They simply tweeted Curran's story 6 hours after we knew it here on Patsfans
 
Here is another useful one - fantastic letter by a physicist that addresses both the Pats and the Colts balls:

PS: love that line in that otherwise respectful and professional letter where he changes tone by addressing the media pinheads. :D

The funny thing is Bill Nye says this stuff is garbage, but even I remember back from my chemistry class that if you apply friction to a gas that the molecules will speed up and expand. And my chemistry teacher will back me up that I shouldn't be considered an expert on this type of stuff. But the supposed "Science Guy" thinks it is garbage? And the thing is he didn't even say why he thinks it is garbage.

I could be wrong but wasn't the party the night BEFORE the game? Let me know if I'm wrong.

As to changing the narrative...
Most outlets will act as if nothing happened. TV news & newspapers have ALWAYS driven the narrative where they wanted by simply NOT MENTIONING news that contradicts their world view.
The Internet has exposed this behavior despite all the BS noise & misinformation on the net.

Those outlets somehow forced to deal with it will do like King. Gradually cover snippets of "new" info acting as if they the intrepid are investigating. Notice that moron King is still so obtuse that he continues to look for team malfeasance even after being informed that physics explains it all.
 
From what ive seen this morning on different sites like yahoo, google news, the daily mail etc. it looks like nothing has really changed. The pats cheated, someone deflated the balls, BB didn't prove anything. On and On and On. But thats OK with me, I want TB, BB and the rest of the team pissed off and wanting to throttle somebody, like Seattle. Heres an example....

Deflategate: 47 percent of Americans say New England Patriots are 'cheaters,' according to survey

NP. You made sense and I wanted to make sure I understood your point.

If Kensildick is the one with the Axe to grind, is it with the Pats? Kraft? BB?

The fact that major news sources are showing another, more explosive conspiracy -thay the Pats were the vicims changes everything.

Truth and facts don't matter anymore to people. Its who has the biggest megaphone and says the most sensationalistic thing is what matters.

Reading that John McCain is ripping Goodell...I love it.
