On the Colts balls

The Colts balls are irrelevant. But here are 2 simple scientific answers, either:

A. They started out overinflated to being with, to suit Luck's preference or
B. They had been inflated or stored outside, so there would have been little to no pressure loss from temperature differential once exposed to game conditions.

NFL statement states that they "inspected" the balls before the game. Elsewhere (and I can't find a link at this moment) it's been stated that the NFL "measured" the balls at halftime and after the game

It does not exist. This is the only NFL statement. They never used the word measure and they never said anything about the Colts balls at halftime. The complaint was about the Patriots balls, I doubt they even looked ta the Colts ones. Look at what the statement does not say. That is just as telling.
 
The answer is simple. The Colts knew they were going to have the balls checked, as per Hardbaughs warning. So they overinflated them, knowing the chances that of the Pats balls being underinflated were very good. That's because no one ever gave a rats @55 before. The best case scenario, is this one. Like I"ve been saying for days. Oh, let be!

This is the whole problem with this. Everyone is using "leaked" bs stories to fit their agenda. There are so many, that they fit practically any theory they may have. It's a hate fest paradise
