The ideal gas law was disproven?

ANGR89 · May 13, 2015

Oddly I just heard Peter King on radio saying NFL probably does have a problem because of the ideal gas law, that because of that 11 of 12 pats balls were right where they should be at halftime if they started game around 12.5. The big networks are just choosing to not get that info out there.

Well, science routinely gets ignored in this country... why am I not surprised it's getting ignored here, too?

Ya that is odd because Bedard works for King so I thought he might be towing the company line but it looks like Bedard genuinely thinks this which increases my annoyance over his view on this even more.

Same thing happened to me. These guys can't get off the airwaves fast enough to suit me. They're dumb as bricks. I expected better from Bedard. Science illiteracy is apparently pervasive.

no one is saying that the law was disproven. not even jets fans are that stupid. what people are saying is disproven is the fact that the drop in the psi of the pats' balls can be caused by the ideal gas law, as the drop was more significant that the weather would cause.

i think that part might have actually been true. our balls deflated more than the colts when you look at the relative pressure that was lost. but... the thing from florio's article said that if the needle anderson recalled using was used, there would be a possibility of no tampering

I'm confused though if there's no REAL record of what the pats and colts balls were recorded at to begin the game how do we TRULY know that they lost more than the colts?

Wrong.

colts balls got to sit in a room for several minutes and get some of the PSI back, Pats balls didn't get that chance.
