Lies, Damn Lies, and NFL Leaks

[tigerjohn]

Bruce Allen with the best summary of the action of the only institution that has demonstrated a clear lack of "integrity" during this mess:

Gotta love Bruce.

Organizations aren't monoliths. But the Patriots-haters and the CYAers in the NFL offices sure seem to have gotten their agendas aligned with each other's.

Great work.

Best article so far, only major thing he left off is all the jester affiliations. but will it see the light of day outside of Boston?

The propaganda machine has never been stronger. Hitler would be jealous!

I didn't think I could get more angry about this whole affair, but after reading Allen's letter, I am truly incensed. It was THAT good. Every Pats fans should be required to memorize the timeline and info Allen so skillfully laid out, so that we can all continuously call Felger and pound him with the truth until he finally admits he was just creating controversy with his blather.

Bruce Allen, Curran and Chatham's tweets reported here have been great reading.

It works better when Chamberlain (Kraft) is in favor of appeasement for the great good.

 

[RelocatedPatFan]

Bruce is my kind of Patriot.

Though he forgot to mention that the league is trying to instill parity by taking away draft picks. But, keeping it focused on the leagues behavior is good enough for now.

Interesting....Bruce Allen's title "Lies, Damn Lies and NFL Leaks" is a take off on Mark Twain's "Lies, Damn Lies and Statistics". Twain's title seems to be right on point.

The PSI in Patriot footballs when using the gauge Walt Anderson was reasonably sure who used were almost exactly what they would be expected to be under the ideal gas law, as was the ball the Colts intercepted. Wells (and Exponent) came up with a statistical model to try to show what would seem to be obvious (no deflation). Exactly what Twain said.
