Now the third person on the panel Brian Dawkins saying same thing and giving more instances of how players know everything about their equipment etc.

No one of the 3 on that panel is buying anything.

On tht panel, it's a landslide.
Brady didnt say he knows nothing about the equipment. He actually said he knows everything except how the weight went down.
 
Aikman now killing them. Says the punishment should be heavier than the one against the Saints.

look folks, BB's presser helped.

This one hurt. Hurt badly.

Those on here who are somehow cheering and thinking that was persuasive are simply delusional.
 
people like brunell and bettis who claim to be voice of knowledge is why fans watching this continue to hate the pats. Why didnt ESPN have bruschi on ?
 
It's also a negative because it means this is going to continue to drag out. No way will they wrap it up before talking to Brady.
Exactly. Now at Media Day, TB will be asked..."Tom, how did your conversation go with the NFL- re: balls".

Ugh.
 
These espn guys are a joke

Now the real question is: if we added up their IQs collectively, would we hit triple digits?
 
Brunell and Bettis are going to get their asses kicked on media row.

How else couldve brady responded to the media hounds ?
 
Thank you adam schef
Where was the refs. The refs has the chance to touch the ball on every play, Why didn't they notice
 
i hated ESPN in 2007 when they started this nonsense, even started a witchhunt with easterbrook and mike fish. they are at it again

So the people who have been killing them all along aren't convinced, and this is evidence that Brady wasn't persuasive?

Alrighty then.
 
Why didnt ESPN have bruschi on ?

Its best for Tedy to not be part of this. He isn't bashful about being fond this organization, but if the SS Patriots goes down, his reputation and credibility as a unbiased analyst takes a hit.

He has nothing to gain by carrying the Flying Elvis in Bristol, CT. Sadly..
 
"Shake it Off" by Taylor Swift. The official anthem of your 2014 World Champion New England Patriots! ('haters gonna hate, hate, hate')


I think it's the anthem for a lot of folks in this thread.
 
Brunell and Bettis are going to get their asses kicked on media row.
They get more exposure on media row. Thats what they want. Brunell ,bettis and dawkins. all lost to brady and the pats. Surely they are objective.
 
Once the media gets rabid, they won't relent until one of 2 things happens. They are given a scapegoat (om nom nom), or a bigger story comes along (ooo, shiny!).

The one good thing that came out of this is media dilution. At least part of that group will now chase after the league for not even bothering to question those people those same mediots already threw the book at. Its simply a bigger fish.
 
  • Agree
Reactions: SVN
So the ESPN panel wants him to lie and take the blame if he didn't do it?
 
These ex players wanting blood is what scares me. Goodell is easily influenced by these players and after the ray rice fiasco will do anything to improve his image.
 
So the question now is what does the league have for evidence or are they going to manufacture some
 
SO Dawkins says they wish they were talking about the game....well how about not blowing up this "story" to massive proportions.
