How can there be "concrete proof" absolving someone of something that never happened? Like Kraft said, I think that absent concrete proof something DID happen implicating the Patriots, the league needs to slap its own wrist and issue a formal apology. Preferably, this apology will be formalized in a photo op of R. Stokoe Goodell and Jim Irsay on their hands and knees literally kissing the bare asses of Kraft, Belichick and Brady.I'm not going to jump ahead of myself until I see concrete proof that absolves the Patriots
Not really hearing anything about this from any media outside of local guys, seems like they are realizing where this is headed and just ignoring it or something.This is a huge point I have not heard from the media yet. Am official who will steal balls and take away from charity can be trusted not to fix a game? Insane

It's on yahoo and other places, I googled OTL and Shefter and there was no shortage of links, especially for a story 3 hours old.Not really hearing anything about this from any media outside of local guys, seems like they are realizing where this is headed and just ignoring it or something.
I got the sense the attached video was from before Schefter broke the real story.ESPN finally speaks.....and as expected it was disappointing (including Adam S)
After giving close to five minutes to the Kelly Naqui OTL story, this clip was about a minute and a half, which basically had Schecter quickly repeating his fired league official story, and they spent the rest of the time spouting that we can't tell what that means and won't know anything until the Welles report comes out in a couple of months. Its up to Welles to determine who is guilty, and thus implying that the Pats haven't been vindicated.
So after a 5 minute clip that allow the reporter to speculate further Patriot wrong doing, they spent a mere minute plus to say, well this thing happened, but its way to early to speculate what it means, and we certainly don't know enough to be speculating on it.
WOW! want a copout, including Schecter who was on the panel. They allow their reporters freedom to speculation on any negative aspects of the whole phony deflategate story, but when it starts to fall apart, suddenly they decide they have to wait for the Welles report, because. we aren't qualified to speculate. What a joke.
BTW- I wish I was Jim McNally's lawyer, because he's going to end up owning everything Kelly Nagui owns and a sizable piece of ESPN.

is he answering?

We don't know that. We do not know what Naqi asked these other people. Did she could have just asked if McNally was in charge of giving the balls to the ref. They may not have confirmed the fact that one of the balls was unapproved.
Supposedly, three sources confirmed that McNally works for the Pats. Only one made the claim re: the football.
I said it from the beginning. The Officials didn't do their jobs in the AFC title game. People didn't buy it. Well here we go. On top of that, it turns out one of the officials may have had a little business thing going on the side. Honestly, why should any of us trust these people going forward?
