We all give our hearts and souls to our team. But in the end the NFL is a big, corporate monster devouring everything in its wake in order to make money for its 32 BILLIONAIRE owners (well, 31, plus Green Bay, which is how every franchise should be managed -- by its local fanbase). We lose sight of the fact that fake scandals such as deflategate in the end drive up ratings and therefore revenue for Mr. Kraft and his billionaire buddies. We are played like pawns in this game, even though we are true to the end to and for our team. I too will be deciding whether or not to give up on the Patriots after this sad news conference. But remember that Roger Goodell is NFL Commissioner (despite record breaking incompetence) because he's there to make money for the owners. That is what this is all about. For us it's about our team, our players, our honor -- but for the Krafts in the end it's about the Almighty Dollar. And so it goes...
