Employee in Bathroom w. balls for 90 secs

Let's see Bill Nye the Science Guy challenge the scientific viability of a 90-second pit-stop.

Haters going to hate, listening nbs cports radio, some jim Daniels, not a hater he says. At 1st I thought he didn't know about florio info. But guy calls and tells him how can 90 secs be enough time for 24 balls. Daniels...its not 24 its 11 balls and these guys are so proficient that it would be no problem. So as we expected...no matter what Pats will be labeled cheaters.
Of course the reality is with these haters, they might get a moments relief with calling Pats cheaters. but their team is sitting home....and you know they would rather be in our place. Jets board has been like a cemetery for months now..only deflate story gave them some life

That's what happens when people keep digging and grasping at straws. They have nothing, so now they're pulling out everything they have hoping that something sticks. The NFL and the media have a hard on (sorry to be vulgar) for the Patriots and it's so damn obvious now, if it wasn't before. Everyone has an agenda. No team can possibly be this good for this long without doing something illegal just because they were doing something that, like Bill put it, 80K other people were doing. LOL I love that coach. He came out swinging for the fences and, call me biased, I think he hit it out the park when he addressed "Spygate." I don't even care about the football foolishness. As far as I was concerned, the first press conference was enough for me. I'm glad he took the extra step, but I also kind of wish he wouldn't have wasted his time.

Everyone hates the Patriots and their consistent winning. They'll jump on any little thing to justify losing to one team so many times in their careers and in some of the biggest games (Bettis, Dawkins, McNabb (earlier this season), Ray "Murda Inc" Lewis, etc.). Whatever it takes to try to take something away from each win is what they'll do. McNabb and Dawkins had four cracks at either getting to or winning the big game and couldn't, but they only harbor ill will toward the Pats? Whatever.

Sorry to rant, but I guess all the questioning of the team's integrity got me more wound up than even I thought I was. **** is annoying at this point. If what the Pats did was so egregious and so obvious to the Colts, Ravens, Ray Lewis and the rest of the world, then why hasn't the NFL found anything other than outlandish conjecture and now a ball boy who went missing for 90 seconds? I'm surprised he was only gone for that long if he was lugging a bag of apparently regulation size (to that point). Footballs aren't small and I'm sure 12-24 of them in one bag is not easy to lug around. Just sayin'.

Sad thing is people (in this country) will use reasonable doubt to prove the Patriots are NOT innocent.

And the ultimate hypocrisy is that few people will call it out or say that their history proves otherwise.

So I did a Google image search for "handling 12 balls in public toilet". I'm not doing that again.

Ha! Well, thank you for not posting the results of THAT search.

How long did Big Ben spend in the Bathroom with that woman??????

The NFL and their media lackies are turning into a Saturday Morning Cartoon show...

"The Azzclown Circus"....

Why would the NFL continue to release snippets of information that is easily refutable??..

For the record, it's Jay Glazer that set off a firestorm of media reports because some poor locker room attendant making minimum wage had to take a piss on his way to the field.

It's even worse than that. It was the league who leaked the info to Glazer, while the Patriots were 35,000 feet in the air. This whole thing is a gigantic travesty!

Yup, they just keep doing that. Meanwhile, i'm just catching up afte a crazy work day but, interesting that the Patriots provided the video early on. Funny that Florio actually has a photo of a Gillette bathroom too.

This whole story is becoming more laughable by the minute.

Posted this another thread, but it seems to belong better here.

OK.
Let me get this straight...and, trolls, correct me where I'm wrong.
1) The guy goes into a bathroom.
2) He's there for 90 seconds.
3) We're expected to believe that he deflated 11 balls two psi per ball in that time.
4) That's 8.18 seconds per ball for him to:
a) take all the balls out of the box or bag and presumably set them on a flat surface of some sort (a task that alone would take around 30 seconds)
b) insert a needle in one ball
c) precisely time the seconds necessary to deflate the ball two psi
d) remove the needle
e) put the ball down
f) pick up the next ball
g) repeat 10 times
h) put all the balls back in the box or bag (another 30 seconds)
i) leave the room.
5) Does that remind anyone else of Lucille Ball working the assembly line at the chocolate factory?

Certainly the #1 Story at this moment. If he spent more than 90 seconds, it would fall to the #2 Story....

He also has to separate the Colts balls from the rest.

There are lots of ways to come at this and make it sound plausible (90 seconds to deflate 11/12 footballs). I just don't want to go there. If the kid is doing this, then they'll have to find his bonus checks for doing it or get his confession.

The thing people seem to miss is if he was deflating balls why would he do it in 90 seconds. Why not take his time? Not like he knew he would end up being in the middle of this farce a week later. It makes no sense he would rush through the task when he had several minutes to spare before the balls would be needed.

This whole thing is just outrageously stupid. The league office are really a bunch of Drama Queens.

ESPN still ignoring pft report of the bathroom break

Why are posters saying that he had the colts balls also, isn't it much more likely that he had the extra balls that the team may provide in outdoor arenas during inclement weather.

BREAKING: the ball boy had an accomplice who is being questions by a specialist now.

Yes, and honestly it makes me think that this is patriot bashing at the core. After Bill's press conference this gets leaked. This is all a fix.
