Bottom line on Tom Brady is...

if he was totally not guilty of any wrongdoing in the football "deflate" issue he would have said so in Mass. last evening in front of the soldout gathering there amongst all of his fans and the national media as well.

empties your retirement on some shady, purely speculative deal that has no realistic chance of ever paying off, except of course on the downside of a put option to him and his cronies;
then maybe you'll actually learn to appreciate 'integrity', and the need for it in our sports as well as our general lives.
If it wasn't an edge that Brady needed, and would ultimately have an impact on the game to his benefit, then why did he take the risk of doing it or being involved in it?
smfh. people are literally ignorant these days.

My point, obviously, was simply that you reap what you sow - and
since I clearly wasn't the first to offer that advice, there must be something to it whether you've found it or not.

Keep talking in circles and deflecting....
You're a ##### that can't back up the BS you put on here.
LOL, you wish ill will on someone while talking about integrity....It's obvious you don't have any.
Also, what does betting on the super bowl have to do with "deflategate"???
Lastly, do you honestly believe the deflated balls led to the pats winning against the colts? If you do, you're a bigger idiot than I first thought, which I guess is possible.

Where did I say that? Also, there aren't 11 other guys taking my test with me.

The Wells report is worded too vaguely to say that Tom Brady outright cheated. It's worded so vaguely because they don't have solid proof. What they do have is a lot of circumstantial evidence that paints both the organization and Brady poorly. I am not a Pats or Brady fan but these are the facts as they stand. Do I think it happened? Yes.
I also agree that he should have denied involvement if he had nothing to hide instead of ducking the questions. Undoubtedly there was enough circumstantial evidence to suspend Brady. I read earlier that the NFL is suspending him and the length of the suspension will be announced next week. Also it was stated that other teams in the league had been trying to help catch the Pats because, this is the actual quote from the article, "The Patriots cheat worse than any team in the league."
No matter what, both Spygate and now Deflategate will forever be a black mark on the legacy of New England, Coach B, and Brady.

I'm not a patriots or brady fan, but I don't agree with suspending anyone without absolute proof. Like you said, it was worded so vaguely because they can't say with any certainty that he did or did not play a role in it.

The one thing I think most people would agree on is Brady has not helped himself out with his actions recently.

Rules are the rules for all of the teams - He cheated - He is an idiot - Only did it because he is with the New England Patriots and knew he could get away from it - Don't worry though, owner Kraft is best friends with the Commish - All Brady and the Patriots will get in the end is a slap on the wrists....

I did not say anything of the sort...They cheated in the AFC Championship game at the very least....
Just how many prior games to that we do not know.....I am sure that all balls in the Super Bowl were monitored very closely and legal...

As I have already stated, he gave you proof by not unequivacably stating that he did not do anything wrong when if he truly had not he could have stated that before his fans and the national media last night - and He Did Not!

LOL, him not saying anything is proof?
You might want to look proof up in the dictionary.
Your opinion is NEVER proof of anything.

the height of the deflate gate saga, and i believe you are sadly mistaken if you think the Patriots managed to sneak deflated balls out there AGAIN. Everyone would've been looking for it. The only issue for people betting on the game would've been how to evaluate the Patriots having to play the SB with a legal football. Would it matter at all? Should the Patriots be given a point or two to adjust?
Also, it's my opinion that nobody lost any money betting on Patriots games due to this. People make bets based on visual and statistical evidence gathered over the course of the season (and longer), and every indication points to Brady using these deflated footballs for quite some time. Therefore, everyone betting for or against the Patriots were doing so on the same team - the deflated football Patriots - so betting would have consistent. What would have been a problem for gamblers is the Pats doing it some weeks and not others - assuming of course that it actually provided a significant advantage.
And I'm not defending the Patriots at all, i just think your post was ridiculous, not to mention tasteless.

Cheating plain and simple, even if every other quarterback in the league does it - the Armstrong defense! If he didm;t know it was wrong, why did he lie about it?

When did he lie about it? New has neither admitted nor denied any involvement in it.
I heard yesterday that the kicker may be involved in the decision to deflate the balls. That
makes much more sense to me than the QB doing it. How many times have you seen a kicker
squeeze the ball before he tees it up. Perhaps Brady's involvement was knowing about it, but
not instigating it.
