"Hi Steve...It's Roger. Help!

“I have not and will not put any pressure on commissioner or anyone representing NFL office to take action in Deflategate,” said Biscotti. “The story circulating that I’ve put pressure on Roger [Goodell] is 100 percent wrong. The reports are unfair to Robert Kraft, who is honorable person and to his franchise. Let’s talk about football and the start of training camp. Fans and people like me want the issue resolved now.”

Yeah and Harbaugh had nothing to do with this either. Sure.....

It's not crazy to think that media rumors are complete BS....no matter how believable they seem.

Let's give everyone else the same benefit of the doubt that New England got back in January and February. Seems fair to me.

Robert Kraft is honorable. I'm sure Steve means that, but...

Thing Robert forgot when he sat at the poker table with the big boys. "When you sit at the table and you don't know who the mark is, then you're the mark."

I summise that this was a PR thing to call the Colts front office out. Ravens come cleanand leave the bag to the Colts.

Whenever someone says something is "100 percent" wrong, I'm almost dead certain that he has something to hide.

Now what would he say if he did? Hope his contact with Goody gets revealed during discovery (if it happens). We already know he's tried to cover things up before which shows he has no integrity.

Just like Bisciotti's button men had nothing to do with the Ray Rice videos.

That "Kraft is honorable" line will probably get our owner to apologize for pressuring Goodell to uphold the Brady suspension and give away our 2017 first rounder as well.

Well, Irsay WOULD make a statement but it's still only early afternoon after a Saturday night........

LOL....Florio is now more rabid than us!

"....
Unless Goodell flatly refused to speak to any owners regarding anything relating to #DeflateGate, the well potentially has been poisoned, and his independence necessarily has been undermined.

So regardless of whether Bisciotti or any other owner denies pressuring or influencing or communicating in any way with Goodell about #DeflateGate, they all need to deny it — and to deny it strongly — before it becomes a central issue in Brady’s looming court challenge alleging that Goodell’s lack of independence requires any suspension to be scrapped.

UPDATE 1:39 p.m. ET: PFT has received a copy of the statement from Bisciotti, in which he insists he hasn’t pressured Roger Goodell. The statement ends with Bisciotti saying, “Fans and people like me want the issue resolved now.” Which sort of seems like the exertion of pressure to get this thing wrapped up quickly......"

Remove Saturday from that statement and it would be even more correct.

Sadly, I see Bob Kraft reading this, feeling a stirring in his lions (sic) and thinking, "They love me. They really love me!" as he basks in the faux praise from the big boys club of 31 he Oh So Much needs to feel accepted by.

BTW, I think Bisciotti's a pretty good owner and might even believe his defense.

The BIG story is that nothing is heard yet from the drunken sonny boy in India-No-Place. Just crickets.

To me THAT is the story, not Bisciotti.

Screw the Colts, their hick fans and their disreputable owner.

Seriously, what did Irsay ever do for the NFL to warrant Goodell being his waterboy at the expense of a true league builder like Kraft?

These reports are false, and now I need to get back to doing the work that the American people elected me to do.


Wait...what?

I could see Goodell listening to the Ravens owner (he has before) but for him to take audience with that pill-popping junkie and have any credibility with the rest of the 32 is well beyond my comprehension.

I swear to you I immediately thought "Sally Field" when I read Bisciotti's quote. Hysterical.
