Odds of Patriots getting their 2016 PSI draft picks back?

This is all fun and stuff, but let's revisit the Jessica Alba topic instead.

If the league office has any integrity then it's 100% because after the superbowl and the wins after and all the stats Brady has racked up its proof that he doesn't need .25psi taken out for any competitive advantage, and when the psi measurement are recorded they should include and apology with the draft picks, but we know they have no integrity.

Nothing is impossible, but some things are highly improbable. I put this in a category just slightly above that of the probability that the Sun will rise in the west tomorrow morning; somewhere around 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001%

I really hope that Kraft fights for the picks back, it makes me angry that he hasn't called for Goodell to resign and fought for the picks back.

Maybe I can help so you won't feel angry the next time by offering an explanation: Robert Kraft is a complete spineless ****ie. Please remove all false hope that he will suddenly find himself with two testicles, or even one testicle. I am quite certain that Jonathan Kraft was immaculately conceived.

He'd probably have to sue to get them back. He said he wouldn't but maybe he changes his mind? Best case they do some psi checks on other teams' balls and find they deflate with temperature too. That may spur kraft on to sue or thd nfl to rescind.

The only outside shot is if a whistleblower from the NFL or Exponent comes forward with damning emails and other evidence and Goodell gets ousted. So roughly the same chance that my daughter has of ever dating before she’s 30.

Zero to none.

whatever you're smoking I want some.

No chance. Even if Kraft hadn't folded they weren't coming back.

Bears finish dead last

Patriots trade Garoppolo back home to the Bears for 2nd round draft pick (#33)

There's our first round pick back

Never give up hope I_I_B

Every time someone asks this, it makes me sadder that the answer hasn't changed.

I know its fashionable to think that they are gone. It's also fashionable to think we will be fine without them.....and we might. But I still hold out hope for one major reason. We didn't do anything and we can prove it.

The fact is that over the course of the next 7 months, the facade of the Welles report, the Mort report, and the facade behind the "cell phone destruction". will become ever more plain. Not only that, the deliberate and malicious leaks and lies that were spread over the previous 8 months will also become more clear.

Ultimately Bob Kraft will be able to go before a league meeting IN PUBLIC and ask a simple question, "Why don't we have a first round pick this year>?" It is a question that Roger Goodell will have no good answer for. He can't say anyone tampered with the balls. He can't say there was a conspiracy. He can't say because Brady didn't cooperate. NONE of that is true, and most of the actual evidence points to a frame, NOT a crime.

So tell me guys what is Goodell going to tell the press when he's asked why the Pats don't have a first round draft pick. Remember that between now and Draft day even more information is likely to come out that is damaging to the League.

There is a possibly that the Court case will be finished. There are also the possibility of some very winnable defamation cases that are possible to come to light. Again, what can Goodell say. "We are going to be giving the Pats the largest draft penalty in NFL history because........we thought they did something, but we were wrong, but we still want to punish them anyway......because we are a group of very small petty jealous group of men who have a problem accepting defeat. Yeah, that sounds like it would work

BOTTOM LINE - It might look like the league can take those picks from us simply because Kraft "accepted" the penalty when he thought the facts were different. But 7 months from now it just might be THAT much tougher to get it past the more skeptical public.

Even the haters will have to give into reality by then. You can see them weakening already. Even now the only thing the haters on PFT can do is scream "cheater, cheater" like 3 year olds. They got nothing anymore. They are just there trolling Pats fans, and after they get trounced 150-2, their mother lets them out of the basement.

It might not look good now, but 7 months is a long time. Keep fighting the fight and don't give up hope.....unless you have a martire complex.

We can haz draft pix?

Since it's theoretically possible I guess, I'll go with 1,000 to 1. But even that feels overly optimistic.

He won't say anything, because he doesn't have to. Most people believe that Brady cheated. All he has to do is refer people to his appeal decision. Even though it's been struck down in court, he'll maintain that it's legitimate and that no amount of judicial activism will change that. It's up to Kraft to sue for the picks, and he's not going to.

Volin googled it for him, he may be calling Jim-Bob and not Jessica, who knows. If I was Jim-Bob I wouldn't be returning calls from a guy starting out "Hey baby, you look great in your latest movie.."
