Kraft is a victim of ongoing abuse which he willing to absorb for monetary reasons just like Mrs. Rice.I guess that's the kind of love Ray Rice put on his girlfriend? This has become even more absurd.

I guess being the whipping boy for Goodell and Kraft's partners is the price for being tolerated and Kraft has accepted it with a hug for his master. Too bad he doesn't have Woody Johnson's status in the fraternity where an actual violation of rules is met with a slap on the wrist.The difference is that rice is bound by the laws of his state and the United States. goodell is not, within the league..
I think he does realize that. I just think he's made a calculation that any damage will be short-lived and not impact his revenues or the value of his investment in the Franchise in the long run. Only time will tell whether that was the right calculation. My guess is he's probably right.Kraft is looking out for his investment.....evidently he doesn't realize that his fan base is a huge part of that investment.
Nah. That won't get him anything but more criticism. He should just do his talking on the field.Belichick should be as passively aggressive and obstinate as he possibly can. Demand that the refs call out opponents on breaking the most obscure rules, respond to questions in the press conferences how they must have won because the other team must have forgot to tamper with their footballs, things like that.
Bad idea.I am hoping that the Brady legal team brings a ball, a pump, a gauge, and a fridge to the courtroom with them. Pump up the ball, rub it as if it were pregame, show its pressure at room temp, then pop it in the fridge. Make your case during the hearing for a couple hours, by which time the ball will have cooled and reached equilibrium. Remove the ball and show the reading again. Case closed.
For best effect, have the judge do the gauging to prove impartiality.
You'd also have to have every person in the room fall on the ball a few times, and maybe have the judge spike it...I am hoping that the Brady legal team brings a ball, a pump, a gauge, and a fridge to the courtroom with them.
