Once again, a New York Columnist asks the questions that our local mediots seem to want to avoid.
Why aren't Volin and Shaughnessy writing stuff like this? I've come to the conclusion that they are either too insecure or too blind to read the handwriting on the wall and speak the truth. Are they so insecure that they are afraid of being accused of being "provincial New Englanders" or something like that? Or do they truly bear animosity towards the teams they are supposed to be covering?.
I've quoted the relevant material from Myers' article below (my emphasis in bold), but I've also attached the link at the bottom both for copyright reasons as well as because Myers raises a few other interesting points:
"ROGER SPEAKS
"Roger Goodell will address the media for the first time since his four-game suspension of Brady was overturned by U.S. District Court Judge Richard Berman last month at the conclusion of Wednesday’s meeting. The NFL is appealing, but even if Brady loses, it would not impact the 2015 season or playoffs and he would likely appeal. Conceivably and incredibly, the case of deflated footballs could reach the Supreme Court of the United States of America.
"In the meantime, Goodell needs to answer a few questions:
"-Does he think he got his money’s worth out of Ted Wells’ $3 million 100-day investigation that produced a 243-page report filled only with circumstantial evidence?
"-Does the NFL plan to release the results when it randomly tests footballs this season? And what happens if the footballs at a December game in Foxborough lose air pressure at the same rate they did in the Colts-Patriots AFC title game?
"-Does he plan to attend a game at Gillette Stadium this season? "
