It would be Baltimore's owner not Harbaugh.

Glazer thinks so.
 
This whole thing sucks.

I live out of NE and don't particularly like being called a cheater every day.

The most successful teams in sports have this happen to them, college and pro level. The way to avoid it is to root for losing teams.

Alabama, uconn, Kentucky, Red Sox, Yankees, etc
 
How hilarious is it that the backdrop for Belichicks press conference is #flexball from gillette
 
Love that Belichick is starting it off with a speech about this horseshit.
 
I can only imagine Roger Goodell and the NFL powers that be all sitting around scratching their heads trying to figure out what their next step should be to keep things in perspective, but appear to be doling out 'justice' for something they have been aware of and know that every QB or team has done in the history of the game.

Unfortunately, I don't have much faith in the current regime to do the right thing and put the media and the naysayers all in their place and that they will deal with it correctly and ultimately visit the rules regarding this issue at the appropriate time.

After the investigation, then the appropriate parties that were involved should be penalized according to what the penalties state(I've read that the fine is up to $25,000). When this has been completed, only then should they sit down and figure out what is acceptable in regards to conditioning the ball to a QB's liking and set up a system that officially monitors it before every game to ensure the validity of the process going forward so we can all enjoy the weeks leading up to the SB and sit around arguing about match-ups and strategies and certain player's ranking in the lists of all-time great's instead of this BS.
 
Sorry, but I'm not OK with asterisks unless the Steelers and Broncos get them also. No offense, but I find your suggestion offensive.

If the Pats cheated, it is what it is. Hopefully they didn't cheat, but regardless this scandal is very profitable to the NFL, whether or not you find that offensive.
 
wow.. BB comming out with this directly explaining his line..didnt expect this.
 
I like what I'm hearing from Bill. Honest and forthright. That's all you can ask for.

Agree. Much better than not saying anything. Silence just gives people room for doubt and their own guesses. Much better to just attack it head on.
 
Now watch the media hounds call him a liar. Thats why he doesnt say anything.
 
Best FU presser I have ever heard. "in my 40 years as a coach...I can assure you I have never talked to a player or fellow coach about air in the football"
 
Him flat out denying this matter is either very reassuring or very damning.

Maybe the league purposely let this carry on, to allow Belichick to address this in his press conference. Then later today, they'll make a judgment.
 
see...even after he said he has said everything he knows...media is peppering him with **** crap questions..questioning his integerity.
 
media is so ****...making me angry hearing these questions.
 
LMAO Bill going Marshawn Lynch on this presser.
 
"why do these things happen to you? " - how do you answer this?


Now i expect peter king to say this
"Bill is the smartest guy i know. For him to say he doesnt know the process how the footballs are prepared is hard to believe"
This is what he said during spygate.
