Crazy sauce Theory of the week(deflategate)

[The Gr8est]

I'm still wondering if Louie Armstrong really actually landed on the moon or if it was all fake.

"And I think to myself, what a wonderful moon."

Mark Sanchez throwing an interception in the 4Q to lose the game for the Eagles reverts the whole curve back to normal.

Cliff's Notes Version of What Really Happened in Framegate

1) Colts get a note from the Ravens about bad kicking balls (because an NFL guy was stealing them).
2) Colts then fabricate a story about past NE GAME BALL deflation and pass it on the NFL Pats-hater Mike Kensil, who plans a sting. Not well, though, as it's super-sloppy with respect to record-keeping.
3) AFCCG: nobody takes any air out of any footballs, but the game is played at 48 degrees.
4) Kensil thinks his sting has worked, since he has no idea that temp affects psi.
5) Kensil lies to the media about all footballs being >2 psi down, maybe even convincing Goodell of the same (or, more probably, Goodell himself LOVES the power of that lie).
6) Before anyone talks sense at all to the NFL, millions of dollars are spent and serious accusations are made (the sunk cost principle). This means "there is no turning back now, after we've come this far and spent this much"
7) Seeing the problem, the NFL orders Wells to "make the numbers work, however you can" and he does.
8) Deceit, ego, pride, lust for power, and the sunk cost principle means that, in the face of overwhelming evidence, the NFL simply won't back down. Ever.

This makes more sense than most of the crap that's out there. Send it to that azzclown GQ writer with a note telling him to get a clue.

Hang with me for a minute, this is going to get tinfoil hat level crazy.

What if Bill, and Tom sat down and concocted a plan. A plan to put other QB's who were bending the rules a little back in line.

During the season we had seen things, and heard things about other teams doing stuff to balls, Rodgers over inflating, the vikings heating them up mid game, the Jets game the balls were SUPER over inflated. What if Bill and Tom saw this, and started to wonder why nobody was doing anything about it, The patriots were always playing by the rules since cameraplacementgate, and now there was this big thing where teams were BLATANTLY breaking a rule, and nobody gave a ****. So there drinking a bottle of i dunno 600 year old whisky, dry aged or whatever it is super genius's drink.

Lets bring all those other QB's back to earth. So they set in motion a plan to get the spotlight put on them, we'll play with minimally legally inflated balls, the cold weather will know the psi down, and we'll leak to a couple of those whiney teams that maybe our balls are improper, because they won't have any doubts that those teams will whine and cry about it.

Of course they didn't think the league would throw AS big of a hissy fit, but they did expect that the league would be more strict in enforcing the psi levels,

And looks whats happened. Peyton is done, Aaron rodgers looks pedestrian. Nobody is even close to bradys level.

And risk losing Brady for 4 games (or more), and losing first and fourth round picks in the hopes that maybe a tiny bit of air pressure in footballs would make a significant difference to Peyton or Rodgers?

You were right when you said "tinfoil hat crazy".

I just hope I'm above ground and compos mentis when that book comes out

If you're below ground I promise I'll visit your gravesite and read every word to you and if you're no longer compos mentis I'll come to the hospital and act out each anecdote chapter and verse. Provided, of course, that I can drink beer the entire time.

Like i said, they didn't expect goodell to call in scotland yard and spend 5 million dollars.

Belichick will no doubt be writing a book after he retires. I can't wait to read it, and I don't think the NFL will like what he has to say.

I know people like to say this,but I doubt it. Seems up there with the mythical "Jonathan Kraft should take over: he will be the tough guy we wish his dad was."

 

[PatsFanSince74]

Yeah, the thread title is right.
"Crazy."
