It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Yes , but a lot of the legal experts minus munson seemd to think berman favored brady and he will get his suspension overturned. Today the same people wallach, mccann think brady will probably lose. So there is that.After the Berman hearings, everyone said don't read too much into it because Berman could be playing devil's advocate.
In this case, the judges could be playing that role. Or they think Brady is guilty, but don't have the grounds to overturn Berman.
Let's take a deep breath and see what happens.
Whether or not Brady *did* it was never supposed to be an issue, but for some reason these N.Y. judges (including Berman) have been very interested in the facts of the original scandal. Probably because the scandal is more interesting than whether Goodell's ruling violated the CBA.
Unfortunately it sounds like these judges think Brady is guilty, where Berman did not. That's not supposed to inform their ultimate ruling, but it probably will...
So is Jaz or McNally the Deflategate version of Stan the Caddie?
Point taken. But where's the outrage over the initial comment I responded to? Is Robertweathers merely the Chargers and his comment nothing more than routine towel stickum?
remember berman tipped his hand by being favorable towards kessler.
parker is certainly favoring the league. same with chin since neither find brady credible.
seems like hiring clement paid off since he destroyed kessler today.
was looking at barty hubbuchs twitter feed, he certainly seems happy!
What would I say, as a layman, who is emotionally invested in how the Patriots and Tom Brady are viewed? I'd be as mad as hell and would probably raise my voice and say that the judges had a misconceived and preconceived bias against my position and let them know exactly how I felt.I get the frustration. You worked your ass off on a case. You're in the right. And then some jackwagon judge who doesn't know what he's taking about spouts crap like, "the evidence is overwhelming that he did it."
WTF are you suppose to say to that?
That's actually a misquote.
That's what I don't like....you said off to a bad start..but from what I understand this is it, so if they did poorly this is what the judges walk away with to me make their decision....no more chances to sway in other directionThis is off to a bad start. Kessler and Brady are getting grilled by the judges. Not liking this one bit

I'm trying to convince myself of that but stuff like "the evidence is overwhelming that there was tampering" is a bit beyond the pale of "playing devil's advocate." Not to mention, it's ignorant and a great example of what legal argument/discourse is NOT suppose to be like.

berman did the same thing - he said somthing like "where's the evidence of tampering?" during the hearings.
