“We weighed the balls. You are in big f—ing trouble.”
Gardi sends phoney psi info"I do know that Kensil has been agitating about footballs for months with the Patriots" Curran told WEEI's Dennis & Callahan on Wednesday morning. "He has been asking around about possible football manipulation for months, leading into this. So, it's kind of his white whale."
Jeff pash reunites with 'independent' investigator, ted wells, to frame brady"The inspection, which involved each ball being inspected twice with different gauges, revealed that none of the Patriots’ game balls were inflated to the specifications required under Rule 2, Section 1," Gardi wrote. "In fact, one of the game balls was inflated to 10.1 psi, far below the requirement of 12-1/2 to 13-1⁄2 psi. In contrast, each of the Colts’ game balls that was inspected met the requirements set forth above."
JEFF PASH: [re: camera gate] "I think with any disciplinary action, you have to focus on what exactly the facts are. Here you had, as best we can conclude, a single incident as opposed to, in New England, years of activity. You had an incident that, as best we could identify, was carried out by a single employee without direction from the coaching staff or anyone else at the club. That’s obviously different from what we saw in New England where the head coach was actively supervising the activity."
Mr. Boland has followed Mr. Pash's career in the league. "I've listened to him speak and paid attention for a 17-, 18-year period. He has been the most aggressive legal lead the NFL has ever had," Mr. Boland said. "Where [former NFL Commissioner] Paul Tagliabue preferred to settle things, Pash has largely preferred to litigate."
