True. However, we ALL put together our opinions / analyses / wild ass guesses (whatever you want to call them) based on some combination of external info, guesswork & our own "skills".
These quotes (assuming that they weren't taken out of context) do not reflect well on SOV.
The single, crystal clear observation is that the league officials, the referees, the players, etc., were all clueless about the effect of temperature on pressure. This was true for a couple of weeks after the Indy game. Some are STILL clueless.
There is no need to go any further than this to explain everything that happened. There is, well there should be, a Parsimony Principle here: the simplest explanation, consistent with the laws of physics, is the preferred one. Unless & until overruled by hard evidence.
I have a very hard time believing that anyone in the Colts organization is so colossally stupid as to think that letting air out of only the ball to which they had access, would do ANYTHING to reduce the pressure in the Pats' balls that they did NOT control. If their ball was the only one that read low, it would serve absolutely no purpose other than to make the COLTS look like cheaters. And idiots.
I don't see any justification for assuming that they are cheaters & colossal idiots, when the temperature drop explains it all, just fine.
