It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I was in Indy 3 winters ago and I flipped on the news and there was Super-sleuth Bob Kravitz......doing a high school basketball fluff piece and referencing the movie HoosiersThe small portion you can read before the paywall prevents you from going further does sound like a reluctant semi-admission of guilt.
I know something about Deflategate.I broke the stupid story.This is not news to Indianapolis readers, who've suffered through scores (and scores) of my Deflategate columns through the years and figure I'm living on that moment of journalistic semi-glory. This may be news to other readers, who may now be learning this and thinking. "Who the heck cares?"But given my involvement, I wanted to speak to Marron, whose compelling documentary makes a strong case that Deflategate science was flawed, that ....
Bingo. Clicks.If Brady wasn't still relevant does he even publish this column? Ie if he didnt make the playoffs or was eliminated? How many other stories will come out if Tom makes the Super. Bowl? It's really telling that the same folks who smash you over the head with science during the pandemic are some of the same folks who completely ignored the ideal gas law during deflategate.
No, he really couldn't. It was an agenda-driven witch hunt. The cell phone silliness was just an NFL straw man to fool the morons (one may draw one's own conclusions based on the fact that it seems to have worked on you...)Brady could have avoided all this by just handing his cell phone over or at least not destroying it.

Based on how the NFL handled the entire situation from start to finish, I am doubtful that would have changed anything - other than perhaps more untrue leaks to Mort, Peter King, etc.Brady could have avoided all this by just handing his cell phone over or at least not destroying it.

Imagine seeing the overwhelming mob, phony investigation, fabricated PSI numbers, fake science and arguing that turning over a cell phone (in an attempt to prove a negative) would have made any difference other than exposing the private life of one of the most famous people in America.

It would at least make Brady look better to the general public. Brady gave Goodell the noose which he used to hang him.
Goodell even outright lied about Brady’s testimony to justify his ruling.No, Goodell was going to hang Brady no matter what. If it wasn't the phone, it would have been something else. Brady and the Patriots' guilt was determined before any investigation began.
Eh, they lost part-time jobs. It wasn't the end of the world for them.It’s a shame what happened to McNally and Jastremski. They’re truly the ones who got the crap end of this.
And texts were actually leaked. Remember the pool cover?Imagine seeing the overwhelming mob, phony investigation, fabricated PSI numbers, fake science and arguing that turning over a cell phone (in an attempt to prove a negative) would have made any difference other than exposing the private life of one of the most famous people in America.

It wasn't MARK Maron. It was Julie Marron.I love Mark Maron but what does he know about science?
