Ted Wells' Train Wreck Press conference :D

[Sfpat]

If Ted is concerned about his independence then he should not have authored a report that was 100 - 0 in favor of the NFL where he considered only information that was favorable to the league and disregarded everything that was unfavorable to the league. How out of touch with reality is this guy?

Why would he do this right now unless he has some other crap to show?

He said Yee smoked him out, basically. If there was anything it would be out and they wouldn't have had to use the cell phone as a crutch.

 

[BradyFTW!]

Guess Wells want to be a part of the story.

Sucks to have your work torn down by people with potential little to no understanding of the process. Get 5m from the NFL, maybe lose 40m in future business (then again, maybe you'll be even more popular asa hired gun to spin anything).

Eh, if you become well-known as a hired gun with no regard for the truth, your ability to credibly spin stuff goes in the toilet in a hurry.

@MarkDanielsPJ
Anyone else on this call hear someone tell Wells to say "lack of cooperation?" Is he getting coached right now?

@MarkDanielsPJ
Wells: I totally reject any suggestion that I was not independent.

@MikeReiss
Ted Wells said he bills by hour and final tab "no question" will be "in millions of dollars."

 

[Fixit]

Next time, Ted, get your **** together in time for the first interview.

 

[Froob]

Please ask about this.

Awesome. People need to keep slamming Wells reputation and integrity. As misguided as I was the reason I thought Wells would produce an honest report was that I didn't believe he would risk his reputation to do the Leagues dirty work. Now that he has done exactly that his reputation needs to be damaged as much as possible. He a shill for the NFL nothing more and Brady and the Patriots need to blast away with everything they have.

Riiiiiight.

That's not what he said in the report, is it? If so, and it turns out he's lying about this, that's even more ammo for the Pats to use in court.

And that changes literally nothing. But didn't the report indicate that Brady was asked for his phone?

The report has more holes than swiss cheese. Watch Don Lee rip this piece of **** to shreds.

Well, you know they use the report when they want and his word when they want to.

Guess we'll see what happens when Wells and Yee compare notes on what was discussed during the 5+ hours of interviews (that oddly isn't mentioned in the report).

Wells: If I had access to Brady's electronic messages, it might have yielded additional insights into what happened.

And if he had access to Brady's mind through some advanced, top-secret form of telepathy, that would've helped too. Neither is relevant, since the league has no right to demand that information from him.

"Disappointing on one hand to say they are cooperating and then on other (refuse to share) most fruitful area of evidence is inconsistent"

 

[Bella*chick]

I want Yee to come out swinging after this POS finishes his whining.

So Tom said I have nothing relevant to share and Wells did not trust him, now I understand Wells better
