What Ian Rapaport said Brady has to do tomorrow on Twitter: "Bring something new to the table and try to prove his innocence to the NFL"
So Brady has to prove science exists and the Ideal Gas Law is in fact, a LAW. Gotcha. What a sham this whole dog and pony show is going to be tomorrow. Just another bite at the apple for the NFL in a typical "down time" for them.
One thing not many people have talked about is: Assume Pats deflated balls in the bathroom, but they only deflated each ball by 0.3 PSI, and only spent 90 seconds total. Does that really make any sense? Spent such big effort to just deflate the balls by 0.3PSI each? Really? If I were doing it, I would at least to deflate each ball by 1PSI to make any real difference.
This is the biggest reason I never believed the balls were deflated before the AFCC game. This whole thing is a BS.
The phone is the talking point the NFL is feeding its tools in the media. It's a red herring meant to distract the public from the fact that the Wells report defies science, statistics and just plain common sense.
We all would do ourselves a favor to stop wondering why people in the media keep spooning out their rubbish. It's all about earning favor with their sources or paying old debts to them. Nothing else.

If this goes to court, some (like John Clayton) says it's risky for Brady because he'd have to give up his phone.
I keep hearing this, but I don't hear anyone offering a convincing reason why Brady would have to turn over his phone.
Because discovery (according to a bunch of people who apparently don't know what Brady would be going to court for, and who have little/no understanding of what discovery actually entails).
wrt John Clayton... the guy is a proven moron who knows nothing about football, which is supposed to be his area of "expertise". So no, I'm not going to take any legal opinion of his as sometihng that matters. His opinions that matter begin and end at 1) what it feels like to look exactly like the crypt keeper, and 2) what would motivate someone to grow a skullet.
I think its more about Goody changing the rules of the game in mid stream (more probable than not) and the NFLPA challenging Goody on this. This is the perfect case to do it with, no one slapped their wife or kid and Goody went way over the top with his punishment. This is a gift from heaven that fell into Kesslers lap. Goody being Goody won't vacate Tom's punishment and the NFLPA wants this in court.No.its no longer about science and dont think it never was. They want him to address the text messages and his phone call for 55 mins after accusations started flying to jaz. Bring something new means , handover the phone.
That 4th grade girl whose science project showed that cooling footballs lowers their psi could probably tear Wells to shreds.
Well sure, except for all the reports that say pretty much the opposite. Or at least that the needs of the team are too important for him to push it. Frankly, I've seen a lot more of those than I have of the former.
I think the reality is, nobody other than Giselle knows what he's thinking right now.
I haven't been following this at all because i am so sick of it..so the appeal is tomorrow? Will it only last 1 day? many? Do we get to hear eveything said?
(ii) Discovery. In appeals under Section 1(a), the parties shall exchange copies of any exhibits upon which they intend to rely no later than three (3) calendar days prior to the hearing. Failure to timely provide any intended exhibit shall preclude its introduction at the hearing.
