Brady would never do it but I would love to see him invite his entire receiving corp over to the house and take pictures of them playing catch out in the yard......with a frisbee.
Yes, I understand the commissioner manufactures evidence and the whole deflategate thing is a scam, but I'm trying to figure something out straight up:
We know suspended players can't go to team facilities or be in touch with team personnel (there actually is an exception whereby players who are injured may consult with team doctors). But are suspended players allowed to associate with other players? I always thought they could, and I would be very interested if anyone knows the answer or has any evidence to the contrary.
Technically yes he can talk to his teammates and socialize with them. They just cannot discuss anything football/team related or play catch or run drills or anything of that nature.
The issue is that is impossible to enforce unless Brady records his every interaction with them showing evidence he did not engage in the activity mentioned above. The best option to remove all doubt is to just stay away and dont talk to anyone from the team. Better yet dont associate with anyone who has ever had any league ties (no former players/coaches/prospects or media). He essentially needs to be a hermit for a full month.
I would not put it past the insanely jealous, corrupt NYJFL to hire a PI firm to keep 24/7 tabs on TFB
They do not have to do anything illegal to follow and investigate him. If goodell determines something may have happened that is a # integrity issue he can start an investigation and summon Brady's phone.
Who doubts he would do that?
Did I mention wire-tapping? No. Spying on someone? Yes, and that's not any sort of offense and it's totally legal when the person being monitored is required to abide by certain restrictions in regard to personal contact - and that's Tom Brady.
Okay guys, you stay paranoid then....
Brady will be followed by a man in a trench coat and top hat for four weeks I guess... His every move will be recorded and calculated. Every bowel movement, everytime he opens up his $200 cook book, every time he takes a bite of avocado ice cream... it will all be logged by the Private Investigator.
Sounds legit...
You're embellishing and exaggerating the scenario which is likely to occur. It's a familiar strategy, in fact Goodell and the NFL employed exactly the same one. Look, you can wallow in your naïveté, but pretending that The Dope and his minions will operate above board won't make it happen. The Easter Bunny, Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy love you. Sleep well...Okay guys, you stay paranoid then....

NFL notes: Suspension rules leave little wiggle room for Tom BradyBrady can do anything but...
A) Be at the stadium
B) Practice with the team
C) Communicate with any member of the organization electronically
D) Supervised workout or meeting on/off prem by a team employee
He can't even meet Dorito Dink for a beer.
You act as if anything involving defame-gatewas legit.Okay guys, you stay paranoid then....

That's what I am expecting him to do. I don't know if he is allowed to give media interviews, but this is the perfect excuse not to. I wouldn't even be surprised if he goes on a full out social media blackout where we don't even see, for example, a ThrowBackThursday picture or anything like that.The issue is that is impossible to enforce unless Brady records his every interaction with them showing evidence he did not engage in the activity mentioned above.

It is legal to observe (i.e. spy on) someone in public or otherwise in a place with no reasonable expectation of privacy. It would be illegal to observe (i.e. spy on) someone in their domicile or other area where one has a reasonable expectation of privacy.Did I mention wire-tapping? No. Spying on someone?

2 years ago if someone explained what was going to happen to Brady that actually had it would sound drastically more preposterous than to think that the league that framed him will try to frame him again.
I never, ever suggested it does. First, it was stated here in writing that I suggested the league would engage in wire-tapping, which I never did. Now, you state that I suggested the league would violate federal law, which I never did. What's up,with you guys? Why the need to embellish and exaggerate?It is legal to observe (i.e. spy on) someone in public or otherwise in a place with no reasonable expectation of privacy. It would be illegal to observe (i.e. spy on) someone in their domicile or other area where one has a reasonable expectation of privacy.
The fact that Brady is forbidden from certain behavior by virtue of his suspension does not give his employer the right to violate federal law.
You need to re-read your first sentence and then re-write it, preferably in English.Yup, I'm embellishing and exaggerating for simply pointing out that Brady can and will be filled in with any information that's deemed necessary by practical means, yet you and the other knuckleheads paint it as an impossibly that's filled with paranoid nonsense...
Cool, keep on keeping on...
I think this was photo-shopped
