Well it seems like he's being investigated for child abuse that is sexual in nature. Another Bronco in trouble with the law (shocker). No team or league suspension has of yet and almost no media coverage.

But hey, it's not like he was more probable than not of having a general awareness that someone else may or may not might have possibly have let a tick of air out of a football even though science says they likely didn't.

Nothing to see here. Move along, move along.
 
Since it is sexual assault, I bet it won't be covered by the new league domestic abuse policy and Goodell will give him a $50k fine. Hey, it is only sexual assault of a minor, it isn't big like deflating footballs.
 
You realize .... It's more probable than not that John Elway knew about this.
Oh, gee, Wilbur, you really think so?...(hope you're a Mr. Ed fan)..;)
 
No premature details from this one leaked to Mort or anyone else from ESPN...hmmm...
 
If he is innocent - I feel badly for him. If he is found guilty, I bet his team(s) don't get punished. It is difficult to be a Patriots supporter right now because we live in a universe where harming others seems less outrageous than maybe knowing something about other people doing something to a football.
 
Eh, the NYFL office won't bat an eyelash over this scumbag, since it does not besmirch the "integrity of the game" like when those dastardly Patriots allowed mother nature to deflate those precious balls during the AFFCG...
 
Really, what's more important, the integrity of a child or the integrity of a child's game played by grown men?

It is too bad if he's innocent, but I don't feel sorry for anyone falsely accused. That's just the way it rolls in the NFL these days. I'm all in on the scorched earth policy. Screw everyone and if they get burned along the way, well, tough s###...
 
The attitude from 2013 is exactly what deflate gate is about.

People refuse to accept responsibility for their own failings.

The new world. Refuse to blame your own shortcomings, AND accuse a man of being a liar when you can't actually know that he lied.

These were 2 no-nos in the past. I am not a traditionalist by any means, but I always thought you can't accuse a person of lying without knowing with a degree of certitude.
