What pisses me off the most is how this saga went from alleged balls deflation to cell phone destruction, to Tom Brady left defending himself as a lone scapegoat.
I know it's too late, I know hindsight is always 20/20, I know all about the shoulda/coulda/woulda I know it surly have already been said here, but I'll say it anyways, because it's the single biggest screw up this organization made:
This whole thing, Brady fighting for his reputation, the team's tarnished imagine, the penalties - it all could have been avoided had Kraft wasn't such a soft d1ckhead, and sued the league the VERY MOMENT those penalties were imposed. This would have gone to trial as the "New England Patriots vs. the NFL" case, in which the SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT piece would have been under scrutiny: the $hitty ***, biased, fully of horse$hit Wells report.
Instead of pouring over that lame POS report, and exposing it line by line, all the media is talking about nowadays is Brady's friggin cellphone!!!!
In that trial, the Wells report would have been exposed as one huge *** falsified hack job that would have been shredded to pieces. The Pats would have been exonerated, the penalties thrown out (including Brady's), and we wouldn't have been talking about cell phones, injunctions, settlements, etc. in the midst of training camp. Not only this whole saga would have been behind us, but we would have come up on top! Our brand name would have been cleared, and Goodell may have very well been out the door by now.
I know Kraft apologized on center stage, but his spineless decision not to fight the league just to appease the 31 other owners and the guy who was about to fck him in the *** (Goodell not exonerating Brady), just pisses me off to no end. To make matters worse, by accepting those penalties, he practically threw Tom Brady under the bus - the QB WHO BUILT YOUR LEGACY!! you fcking thankless POS!!!
There are certain outcomes and ramifications in life which no apology in the world can repair. In my eyes, Kraft is still a spineless ****y whose decision to bend the team over and have the league pound them in the *** for absolutely zero legal reason, cost their and TFB's reputation for good. Fcking IDIOT!!!
