Kraft "trying" to get 1st round pick back

Did not know they could not be returned after the draft. Ouch.

Had a glimmer of hope of getting them back at some point but you have now crushed it. Thanks

Goodell and the front office are just going to pull a Congress move and sit on this until after the draft.. knowing how much of a slithering snake he is, he'd probly release all the PSI data the day after the draft completes that would completely exonerate them.. and then they would pop some champagne and celebrate screwing the Pats over

True, but Bob followed up with another letter apologizing for the brusque impression that gave.

He assured Roger he wasn't trying to be pushy.

Wow! He wrote a letter. Impressive.

Perhaps he should have gone to New York and thrown a tantrum?

Not sure why Kraft isn't suing the NFL and Goodell for denegrating the Patriots brand

I lost faith in Kraft wrt Deflategate a long time ago. Throughout he has pandered to the fans when speaking in public. Talking about how he has lost faith in the NFL, how he disagrees and how he would like an apology. Then when push comes to shove he chooses the NFL and the other owners over the fans.

I see the letter as more of the same. He knows nothing will come of it but he gets to stand infront of reporters talking about how he is doing everything he can.

Better than nothing.

Wouldn't surprise me to see Goodell call Bob an Indian giver.

someone should remind kraft that goodell works for him, and no the otherway around.

Saying that he has not seen the leagues info from the psi testing, to me, sounds like complete ********. the NFL Office works FOR the owners, Kraft should demand that info.

Bob is now denying that he sent the letter. NFL Security has submitted a copy to the FBI.

Just got a copy myself.

Wouldn't surprise me if they release info with fudged numbers.

I'm not sure where their heads are at on this but it's better to make an effort than nothing at all. Given the update to the WRIC you would have to think the plea was rejected and the question then becomes whether they are trying to find some other recourse? I get the anger towards Kraft but stomping his feet won't help matters so the first try has to come in the form of a request, if denied then what is the next step if any? It would seem a lawsuit is their only avenue left but I just don't see Kraft going that route so all that's left is to work towards the removal of Goodell and his cronies, and that will be a long slog.

They are ill-tempered, sir.

Kraft to reporters on PSI: "[NFL] did their own testing. They have results. For whatever reason they haven't shared them with any of us."

We're not getting the picks back but at least we can embarrass the NFL's investigation. Demand that they release the PSI data.

WTF?
Bobby, you PAID for the data to be taken.
Put on big boy pants and insist that any & all be distributed to the 32 morons, I mean owners.

But how is that not a serious issue that every owner should be furious about. Their employee has deliberately withheld and forged false information. How is that not grounds for immediate dismissal from his position.

This is less embarrassing than that letter.

The only way to get any action is through the court of public opinion. He should come out publicly and demand the NFL to release the PSI data that they've collected. He should state that he'd be willing to accept a harsher punishment if the data shows the ideal gas law wasn't the cause and have NFL agree to give back the picks if it turns out the Data supports the Pats innocence. NFL will never do it, but it would put huge pressure on Goodell to respond.

At least he tried.

he didn't try very hard when he accepted the penalties.

Well then, they should be able to repeat the experiment under the same conditions that were present when they took them the 1st time.

They SHOULD get the same result.

THIS time let's have some independent witnesses.

Do you think he used exclamation points?

AndyJohnson said:

Apparently he wrote a letter won't say if he got a response but is "moving on from that".
He is as bad as goodell about bs refusing to answer the question.
Gave up again. Ugh
