Deflate-Gate: Here We Go Again

And what did they have to say about this? Every place "reporting" this is just siting bob Kravitz. ...has anyone else actually reported this?

They read right from Kravitzs column, so that was the only source. They said it always seems to be something with the Pats, but Golic said doesnt matter. This had zero to do with the outcome of the game. Greenie said its hard to believe since there are about a hundred cameras there and this would have had to happen during the game on the sidelines. They stated if true, probably would be a loss of a draft pick. Indy brings their own footballs to the game, didnt use the same ones as the Pats.

What a joke.

From what I could see, the patriots definitely played with bigger balls than the colts so I guess it technically could mean the colts played with deflated balls.

Your right the pats had much bigger balls last night.

I'm so confused as to how this is even a story, if there was something wrong with the ball's , why haven't we heard 1 colts player/coach complain about this?

Tom Brady's reaction was just perfect on his WEEI interview .. "I've heard it all"

Seriously.......WTF. If this turns out to not be true they should fine the Colts for trying to sell the story and take the heat off themselves for getting smoked.


EDIT: Sorry I honestly looked and didn't see a thread on this. Please delete or merge.

No one else is reporting this ...Schefter, Reiss and others ... I hope this thing goes away soon .... The very thought of haters using this to call Pats cheaters again makes me sick especially coz there is no credibility here ....

This **** has got to stop, one D Bag "Kravitz' says this and now its all over the internet, in some cases the opening headline. If someone makes and allegation that proves false the Krafts should sue, if your going to accuse the team of cheating. then you had better have prof or you'll have to pay. Having to fight this kind of BS every time we're in a SB takes away from preperation and concentration.

Haters gonna hate.

The mods need to delete all of this ********.

My thought too, the colts and or kravitz should be fined, or in kraviz case sued for defimation. Now a days any knuckle head can make an allegation and its treated as the truth and plastered every where which takes away from preperation and on top of that we have to listen to the stupid sht for two weeks. We are now going to have to listen to this up until and after the SB, and it takes away from the fun at least for me.

It only takes away from preparation and concentration if you let it. The Patriots won't let it. The haters have no limit on the amount of sour grapes they'll eat. This stuff will be around forever. Oh, and by the way, Lawrence Tynes is a first-class douche.

thats not going to help, its out there

I have a concern about deflated balls. I've hired Beulah Ballbricker to line up all the Indy Colts players, depants them, and then inspect them for deflated balls.

I'm pretty sure that was Kravitz's purpose.

The refs check the balls pre-game and they remain under the refs control then until and during the game. On the second biggest Sunday of the NFL year with a million cameras around, we are expected to believe that the team somehow deflated the balls...puleeeze
Perhaps the indoor Colts didn't realize the effect of cold and rain on the balls when you play outside in January in New England......

You can say that and TB, BB and the rest of the team can say that but at a certain level it will. I guess its more me, i'm really sick of this crap, instead of basking in the glow of winning the afccg and going to the super bowl we're going to be me,you and everybody else going to hear about the pats cheating again for the next two weeks

LOL. Of course.

It's pretty much impossible to "switch" a football live in game for obvious reasons and if they were in fact underinflated there is absolutely no evidence without a confession that it was anything beyond the officials allowing such a ball to enter a game as they are under tight control by the league.

In other words, I wouldn't worry about losing picks or anything. But I'm sure this came from somewhere. We'll see what happens.

i agree thats his purpose and if it turns out to be false then he should have to pay. The Krafts will look at it as as a petty thing but they need to do something to put others off from doing it again. If Kravitz made this up then he should be made an example of.

That doesn't mean this site has to lend any credence to it. Seriously, the garbage that is tossed around after every patriots win has gotten really old.
