KRAFT DEFENDS THE TEAM!

One thing has become obvious after seeing this witch hunt blow up in the face of Goody. The NFL office is being run by former Jets. They only difference is that the Jets have a better record.

Those Pats fans who doubted our team at any time during this attack will have to pay. Sorry, it is what it is. Maybe not Patsfans jail time, but some Patsfans community service might be in order.

The Pats will win or lose this SB on the field. Just like all the others.

I think these would be great additions to the hit list;
Tony Kornholer
The Lamb twins, Kurt and Marshall.
Kert Minihead

Speaking about Kraft's message last night Jaws just stated he believes ratings are behind the "Patriots keeping this thing going". If the league can pick up an extra 20 million viewers because of this controversy they win.

Here's the official **** list ...

Add Shannon Sharpe and Bill Polian.

I don't follow Don Banks, so dunno if he's any good, but at least in his radio interview he suggested: if the Patriots are found guilty, put the infraction into perspective. There are felonies and there are misdemeanors. This doesn't approach being a felony.

Polian tried brow-beating him into line, and kept blow-harding about integrity of the league.

All media members who threw crap..I expect them to come out today and say "We need to see all the evidence before we can pass judgement" in other words we need to see all the evidence before we declare the patriots not guilty.

So the ball boy now had both set of balls and went to the bathroom for 90 seconds....this morning it took me about 90 seconds to walk to the bathroom and take a piss start to finish...just sayin.

While I am certainly very, very glad that Kraft did what he did, I think this whole event puts the lie to the oft-repeated statement about what an "influential" owner Kraft is.

If he really were "influential" we would have at least a couple of owners saying something like "While we are not taking any position on the investigation other than to say that it should be conducted thoroughly and fairly, we do condemn the barrage of leaks coming from league offices and expect them to stop immediately. They certainly do not reflect well on the league."

If you can't get as mild a statement as that out of even a few people you are supposed to be "influential" with, then guess what -- you aren't very "influential" after all.

(You would also think that these idjits would realize that even though they may hate NE, do they really want to see this sort of thing happen to their franchise some day?)

Phil and Chris Simms piled onto Tom Brady yesterday.

Chris Simms said no QB who had ever spent any amount of time in the game wouldn't have noticed the difference in dropped PSI.

But then again, QBs like Dan Marino and Joe Theisman didn't spent as much time in football as Chris S.

THIS!!!

My question is I know you can't slander a public figure without proof that it was done maliciously w/o facts but what about the ball boy? Would he have standing to sue? I'm not a lawyer.

the ball boy could have a case...but does anybody even know who the ball boy is? his name has never been mentioned. nobody said if it was a ball boy or equipment or anything. i haven't heard if its a league employee or patriots. can't slander a person who you don't even know who it is

That tampering with footballs is worse than Bountygate and the Pats should be punished accordingly. Apparently it never occurred to him that it was entirely likely that the Pats didn't tamper with any balls in the first place.

Tony Mazz is a fraud. He claims that Kraft left himself an out in case Belichick lied because he isn't 100% sure that he totally believes Belichick.

Cris Carter's intelligence should be insulted, on a daily basis. The man is straight-up stupid, and anyone who's spend 5 minutes listening to him knows it. If he's even in the 30th percentile of human intelligence, I'll be shocked.

Did Felger have a tantrum yet?

Felger is insufferable today....

Not only that but Felger said there should not be an apology because the Patriots "ball-boy" went behind a "locked door of a bathroom".

Felger has conveniently left out that the attendant is an NFL employee who stopped in a bathroom for 90 seconds.

Also cites Morts "report" about 2 psi drop which has been since disputed with a different "report" of 1 psi on PFT.

Felger talking about the "facts" is a joke.

As has previously been said, you can't insult that which doesn't exist.

Yep! "No one deserves an apology! I don't need to apologize to the team! The Pats' upset about the leaks?!? That's hysterical. "

Mazz is saying that Kraft could be in trouble because he has made an enemy in the front office.

Aaaand Mike and Mike just blamed Kraft for keeping this thing going. Now they will be forced to talk about this all morning when they were going to move on. Where can we go to watch sports news anymore? Dumb and dumber.

Those two have colossal balls to complain about not wanting to perseverate on this issue. They've had major chubbies ever since this nonsense began.
