she should tweet something like air pressure in a ball > domestic violence

Add Adam Schefter to the list now, as he is claiming it will remain at 4 games too.

But Schefter also, early on, believed Brady wouldn't sit 1 minute of any suspension. It'd be nice to see him follow up on that as well.

@AlbertBreer: There've been continued settlement talks between NFL and NFLPA on Tom Brady. One major sticking point: Brady's willingness to admit guilt.

LOL

A few reasons why I don't believe Brad destroyed his phone:

1. I don't think Kraft would have made the website wellsreportcontext if Brady was guilty. What would he have to gain if he thought Brady was guilty and was trying to cover up evidence?

2. Brady is not stupid enough to destroy his phone and not realize that the cell companies can still recover the information.

3. Why wasn't this info in the $5 million Wells report?

4. During the appeal didn't Brady have to testify under oath? The way the NFL leaks information we would have heard about him admitting to destroying his phone.


IMO, this is a last ditch effort by Goodell to scare Brady into excepting some type of agreement. Good luck Roger because this is going the distance.

This makes zero sense. The Wells Report exonerated Belichick by name. Goodell already issued his punishment. He can't go back and re-punish the Pats and say that that the Wells Report held back evidence that Belichick cheated. Belichick would win a court battle and the owners might not be able to save Goodell's job at that point.

As of 45 minutes ago, HSPN says they're still talking. I doubt they would be if Smith's report is accurate. Of course, they could all just be sitting in a room doing email on their mobiles.

I think I could live with that (except, I say leave BB alone as he's been exonerated by the NFL via the Wells report).

Why the hell would he admit to something he didn't do and they have no proof he did. Idiots. goodell basically begging Tom to say he did it so this whole thing doesn't look like a big waste of time and he doesn't get another stain on his nfl tenure when Brady gets the suspension thrown out.

Also absolutely hilarious they got stephen a miss going around saying how they are very confident they will win in court and this coincidentally new information after a lot media outlet have started to question this whole thing because goodell still hasn't made a decision.

If they are so confident in their case why are they leaking stuff out to that blowhard, why are they even talking about a settlement an why are we on Day 35 of no decision on Brady's appeal?

Well Brady couldn't be doing that because he destroyed his cell phone

Rob0729 said:

The Wells Report exonerated Belichick. Said specifically that he had nothing to do with it.

That actually makes me doubt Belichick.

@AdamSchefter: NFL and NFLPA are not expected at this time to reach a settlement regarding Tom Brady's four-game suspension, per sources.

It's on.

NFL upholds Tom Brady's 4-game suspension, per source. Story continues. Now on to court.

My translation to his statement is: People are upset in the nfl that they couldn't tie this to Belichick and push for his banishment so they are going to pawn off the fact that even though their gospel wells report says Belichick had nothing to do with it that Kraft took the punishment before the wells report was even written to save Belichick.

suspension upheld!

now i get to hear polian's expertise!!
according to shefter's report, brady did in fact destroy the phone.

Anyone want the over under on how long it takes Kessler to get to Judge Doty's courthouse to file the paperwork for an immediate injunction???? I'm guessing within 2 hours of the court opening as this eventuality has long been expected and the paperwork is probably just missing a date stamp and a signature or two..

those were stored on their phones. What I'm saying is that if you delete a text message on your phone, your carrier only keeps them for about 2-3 days. They dedicate only so much RAM on their servers and every two to three days they begin to write over the previously stored data.

So because they had the dinks phones, they already had copies of all the communication between them and Brady. This is ridiculous, more BS being put out there by the NFL..

Remember this is the same network that brought you 11 of the 12 footballs were at 10 PSI.....

Not to belittle you, but this is incorrect. Company's use hard drives (not RAM) to store long term data, and that stuff is cheap. A former co-worker of mine works for T-Mobile managing their text message database..its huge.

Take this for what its worth.

AT&T, for example, retains information about who you are texting for five to seven years. T-Mobile keeps the same data for five years, Sprint keeps it for 18 months, and Verizon retains it for one year. Verizon is the only one of the top four carriers that retains text message content, however, and it keeps that for three to five days

They would at least have the metadata (ie, person A texted person B at this time on this date), for up to 7 years depending on the carrier.

Copy of the decision..

Awesome. Good for Brady. Given the contempt the league office and Ted Wells has shown for the Patriots and Brady his contempt in return is only fitting. I hope he extended both middle fingers while informing Teddy Boy of this.

Time for the injunction and federal court. Remember folks, it's not about guilt or innocence anymore, now it's about the process.


Ha ha ha ha, lmao, go Tom go.



BTW-the rest of the NFL can go F.CK itself, I could really give a rats @ss what they or their fans think.

Smith remarked, “Where the hell was Tom Brady? I mean, is he a Republican and don’t want anybody to know? Was he there in 2001 when George W. Bush was president? Yes. Was he there in 2003 and 2004?”

Smith continued, “When George W. Bush was president in 2001, 2003, 2004, Tom Brady was at the White House celebrating. But Barack Obama is the President of the United Staes, and Tom Brady’s got "family commitments"?”

Smith then controversially added, “Why do I feel like if George W. Bush or Bill Clinton or somebody was there, why do I feel like Tom Brady would have been there then?”
