I have been saying this for a while now, when Kensil so eloquently said to the Pats Equipment Manager during the Colts game.. "you're f..ed", he literally meant it. Initially they envisioned that the penalty, as BB had to be behind it, would be very "Bountygateesque" and BB would be suspended for at least a year.. then Kraft might have had to fire him, and level the playing field.
and Robertweathers' response:
I'm with you. The NFL thought it in their souls that the Pats were deflating footballs. I'm starting to think that the Oct Jets game ball at16psi was a sting. At this point, is it out of the realm of possibility that the NFL would stoop to that?
Was Deflategate set up to begin at the Jets 16 PSI game, to lure the Pats into a rules violation to reduce the PSI of intentionally overinflated balls? Could the Pats, once again, be the target of a sting that started with a setup at a Jets game? Could we be missing the even bigger reality of what's happening here? That this is more than just reactionary Pats hatred out of Goodell and the front office, but is instead actually schemed hatred? And if there is discovery in a future lawsuit, that's what will become evident?
FWIW, I'm on vacation on the Cape and my wife thinks I've gone off the deep end here.
I'm not going to say you went off the deep end. The NFL* office actions and behaviour supports this theory. Only problem is there's no proof.
