Will Bob Kraft make a comment on Deflate Gate ll ?

[Actual Pats Fan]

it's a little different during the season....I'm sure there will be relative silence until the pats are done......there's no rush to make a stink though it would be good to undermine the steelers prospects this year.......

Sure, then once again at the owners' meeting on April 1st, Robert can once again get up in front of everybody and apologize for the Patriots' damaging the league once again

 

[deroc5050]

Since its going to be like 5-10 degrees in Denver, if Patriots recover a fumble or an INT, they should make a formal complaint to the league that the ball is soft. You know the PSI in 10 degree temps is going to be in the 10 10.5 range.

They will never do that, but it would be funny if they did.

Spineless Bob won't do ****

 

[Brewskies]

Deflatgate 1 is over, period. Kraft and Brady took their punishment as well as the team. There won't be any discussion or words re deflategate 2 from Kraft, Brady or anyone else in the organization. That's the way it should be, deflatefate 1 done, finished and yesterday's news

 

[1960Pats]

I am still waiting for a statement from Bob "crickets" Kraft.

Here he is now...

 

[TheBostonStraggler]

Look, I know some/many people are mad at Bob for what transpired regarding the sham known as deflategate. Some of it, IMHO, is definitely justified. However, the reality is nothing good can come of the Patriots commenting or involving themselves publicly within "Deflategate II". I believe even GOAT was offered up a chance to comment on it and he smartly deferred.
Dishonest Goodell has a large majority of insulated, entitled, envious owners behind him. That means it is all but game, set, match in terms of being able to give Snake in the Grass Goodell his just desserts via public comments to a collectively dumb and unserious media. But there is one terse comment on Deflategate that Patriot fans can make in place of Bob and GOAT and BB that is meaningful: Patriots win the SB, it gets Goodell up on the big stage, and hopefully the remaining stadium crowd is rabid Patriot fans that boo/jeer him with enough volume that every word that comes out of his yap will be heard to the TV audience. Even the trophy ceremony is on a massive number of TVs. Having him booed under that kind of giant microscope is the closest thing we'll get to seeing Dishonest Goodell get a bit of his well deserved comeuppance.

What do you think? Will Bob Kraft make any type of statement about Deflate Gate ll?

If I got fined a million dollars & last a first & fourth round draft pick, I would be screaming from the roof tops about the double standard in the NFL. I would also point out that Roger Goodell has no integrity.

Well Bob Kraft is a business man & I am sure any response will be measured.

Kraft has an embarrassing history of supporting Goodell. He looked like a fool supporting Goodell through the Ray Rice fiasco & he put up little to no fight over Deflate Gate. Any negative statements were directed to the league & not the true cancer Roger Goodell.

We know Kraft won't say anything negative about his binky Roger, but
Hopefully he will at least address the double standard of the league, but I am not going to hold my breath.

What do you think?

Robert Kraft married himself to the Anti-Patriots jihad, climbing into bed with James Busch "I Wonder What It's Like To Be An Owner?" Orthwein who after five minutes here decided all his friends back home and around the country and in the media were correct, that the Patriots are a blight on the face of humanity, that in a little over twenty-four months they did more to damage the league than Green Bay (the Siberia of football), Cleveland or Detroit ever did and should have their identity destroyed, taking them immediately from having the best logo and uniforms in sports to having the worst.

Robert Kraft really wanted an expansion franchise, or perhaps one that moved from another city but brought nothing of its qualities with it, including having all on field records literally erased from existence. That is, like the team we just played, the Ravens. Or, perhaps like the one we're about to play, to wit: one that destroyed its own logo and uniforms, being absolutely beholden to the league, and immediately anointed not one but two unworthy quarterbacks the G.O.A.T., erasing any trace of what was ever likeable or rootable about the team.

You may give him a pass for kissing Goodell's arse, but I am one of many who don't.

Obviously Kraft has a little different perspective on deflategate, with that said he did speak out at the Super Bowl and told the league he would expect an apology. And apparently if your an owner you cannot sue the league.. its like not allowed after Al Davis did it they abolished it. So there wasn't much he could do.

He also admitted after they suspended Brady that he regretted not fighting the punishment more. It was clearly a scandal and for the good of the league he probably has kept most of his opinions to himself. They don't want to tarnish the NFL's image because ultimately he is hurting himself.. even though the league ****ed him and his organization.

But we the fans can be vocal about it, thats why Roger will never come to Gillete.

 

[everlong]

Bob got neutered by the other 31. He's not going to speak up and incur their wrath again. The myth about one of the leagues most powerful owners has been debunked.

Yup.
A lie told often enough is believed and unfortunately the league narrative is the one that is accepted by a majority nationwide. Kraft has two choices, accept it to sit at the big boy table albeit neutered or go Al Davis on the league creating sh*tstorm after sh*tstorm. While we fans would like the second approach, he opted for the first. Here's the problem with passive approach ( the " I demand an apology" was half hearted)
There is an adage in business, " don't damage the brand" by allowing the false narrative of Patriots as "cheaters" it damaged the brand and value of the franchise.... While it can't undo the damage of lost draft pick and fine and suspension, perhaps there is a third approach.. ***** about every other team doing illicit things from walked talkies on the Giants sideline to under inflated balls. Demand investigations for the "integrity of the league". Make everybody else very uncomfortable, so
Much so that that the league won't frame the Patriots again..
By taking the passive approach, it is like dealing with a bully.. Until you stand up, you are going to get beat up... again and again....Guess what, Goodell is not done going after the Patriots, he will do it again. Why shouldn't he! Other than we fans and a few voices in media, it is a great distraction from lower ratings....
Rant over

No Deflategate 1 is NOT over.
Next spring, the Patriots lose yet another valuable draft pick. For what?
It's still ongoing.

 

[PatsDeb]

No, and if he does it will be something mamby pamby that will piss us off.

 

[flasox27]

Kraft has been the stooge of Rooney and Mara and their puppet Goodell since he failed to backup BB in 2007. Remember that Rooney and Mara told Goodell to destroy the tapes that would have shown other teams doing the same thing and Kraft folded for the good of the League LOL. In fact Kraft to the amusement of the big two joined in the protection of the puppet after the Rice incident. To draw a comparison, Kratt is a noisy neutered terrier trying to run with Rottweilers. At the owners meeting Kraft was reminded that he was just a little impotent dog and he had to give up his bone for the benefit of the big dogs who were hungry, Now I finally think that Kraft realizes his position in the pack and he is just going to sniff around rear ends and not bark when the big dogs are fighting.

 

[The Gr8est]

Well, naturally, Bob will need to check with Roger to see if he minds.

If Roger is OK with it, then Bob WILL say something, and it will be scathing.

Krafty Bobs Statement :

 

[TinhWoodhead]

It's not because the POS hasn't been invited. The POS doesn't have the Cajones to show up.

he wanted to but security wouldnt let him in

 

[captain insano]

I think not.

So strange though that we haven't seen ****del in the box with Kraft in one of these high profile prime time home games... what's it been, two years?

goodell isnt going to set foot in foxboro for a very long time.

Until Kraft questions Goodell's judgement out loud, he has lost the respect of many.

How he can continue to support the worst commissioner in NFL history baffles me.

He is the biggest Goodell Koolaid drinker in the NFL.

Spineless Bob won't do ****

And here we are, today, Dec. 18th, the fortieth anniversary of you-know-what, and is Bob reaching out to the survivors of the one team in North American history that above all others had a world championship stolen from them, yet continued to represent us proudly and with humility and class, and at least acknowledge if not honor them?

No, because according to the anti-Patriots jihad, of which Kraft is chairman of the infiltration division, the six states of New England did not exist prior to 1993.
