Hand raised........

The NFL did this BS in Bountygate too. "YES WE HAVE A LEDGER SHOWING ALL THE BOUNTY PAYMENTS MADE FOR SAINTS PLAYERS WHO INJURED PLAYERS ON OPPOSING TEAMS" "ok that sounds damning, show it to us" "WELL WE DON'T HAVE THE LEDGER TO SHOW YOU BUT WE DO HAVE SOME VIDEO OF A PLAYER TALKING ABOUT IT" "ok that's not what you said earlier but that is still pretty damning" "HERE'S THE VIDEO" "that's... that's not what you said it was, there's no evidence in this video at all" "WELL WE KNOW WHAT GAME IT WAS" "...nobody got injured in that game" "OK IT WAS ACTUALLY THIS OTHER GAME" "the only person in that game who got injured tripped over his own feet!" "WELL WE STILL HAVE THAT LEDGER WE TOLD YOU ABOUT, WE JUST AREN'T SHOWING IT TO YOU"

I honestly feel guilty for not paying more attention to this or taking complaints by Saints more seriously. It's important to stay informed and I didn't do it because it wasn't my team. Not good.

Yes I am sure that Goodell who is fighting for his job would hold back evidence that would help him.

Maybe the NFL* has "evidence" of something entirely unrelated that they want to penalize the Pats for after Defamegate has been resolved.

As far as I'm aware, Nash wasn't sworn in at the time, so I don't think perjury would apply. But of course, it would have been completely idiotic to lie and say you don't have direct evidence when you actually have direct evidence.

Lying in court is potentially a disbarable offense for a lawyer. If Nash is caught lying, he can be brought up for an ethics violation in front of the bar and can get anything from censure to suspension to outright disbarment.

If Violin is right then Nash in all likelihood perjured himself when he told Berman they had no direct evidence linking Brady to a scheme to deflate footballs.

The owner never said direct evidence. Their evidence likely is in the Lionel Hutz school -- conjecture and hearsay are kinds of evidence.

Why does every idiot columnist work for Boston papers.

This just in, "an unnamed Globe employee walks in on Volin naked with a sheep" Evidence point to this as an going affair. Woolite found in Volin's desk and car!

That's why I said " in all likelihood. " Trollin' Volin would like us to believe this is some bombshell game changing evidence because it would be meaningless if it is just more conjecture.

A dude at work keeps telling me this. My argument is if they had anything real against the Pats.. They would have come after them for it by now. I mean, they are literally making **** up as they go along in this crap case.

Woody Johnson "Well Bob, we actually have proof that it was Tom Brady who sucker punched Geno Smith...and not IK Eminem".
Bob Violin "You have proof Tom Brady snuck into the Jets locker room and sucker punched Geno Smith?"
Woody Johnson "Bob we have video proof that Tom Brady was in a MetLife Stadium locker room around that time".
Bob Violin "The last time Tom Brady was in MetLife Stadium was in 2014".
Woody Johnson "That's irrelevant Bob. We will produce the video"

What I would love is for Berman to use this leak to call for all materials related to the Wells report to be given to him and then released for public consumption.

That would be one more nail in the coffin. But some how I don't think it would matter to public opinion or to certain journalist in regards to the Pats innocence. Sure it would be another bad reflection on the NFL's already tarnished image but in no way is it going to exonerate Patriots hate. You would think science and the actual psi numbers would do that but people already have Mortensons 2 psi report stuck in their thick heads.

If you believe this, I have 150 acres of Florida swamp land for sale. Shoot me a PM and we can make a deal. More NLF leaks and lies.

Journalistic integrity under fire.

RobertWeathers · Aug 16, 2015

Just piss poor reporting by Trollin' and the anonymous owner is a cowardly scumbag.

As an aside, in theory this owner should not have any access to information outside of what has been published.

Unnamed sources close to Ben Voilin tell me he has sex with sheep.

My statement has a better chance of being true than the league holding back a smoking gun.

IANAL, but I'm sure there are sanctions for lawyers lying to judge.

That's a remarkably stupid passage.

It's wholly illogical for the NFL to both:

Punish Brady with appallingly little evidence to prove wrongdoing.

Hold back evidence of wrongdoing.

There's no way Volin should have repeated the claim without in some way addressing its great illogic.

You can't cure stupid. He is being fed bullsh*t because people know he's a tool that can be used over and over again. He isn't smart enough to figure it out and he believes he is 'in the know' and 'connected' because they are whispering this crap to him. The Globe hire people like this because they will work cheap and are disposable since his absence (if he had to be fired) wouldn't create so much as a ripple in their readership, such as it is. It's the Globe version of Tomase. Journalistic Integrity is the ultimate oxymoron.

In an unrelated story to the Volin sheep drama, Little Bo Peep has lost a couple of sheep. Hmmmmm.......
