Ted Wells: “More probable than not” Patriots manipulated balls

ooooo Brady gon get suspended!!

Honestly he should... He won't but he should be suspended if that is their conclusion. However I feel the NFL will just sweep it under the rug.. Wish this was like the College football where when found guilty you are not allowed the program is penalized by not being able to play in the postseason for X years as punishment...

Hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahaa
Can't wait to read all of this when I have time.

Nothings going to happen. They wait till after the draft to release this. Yeah.

Shocking.Who would have thunk it?

Surprised they even said this though! Happy to see SOME accountability at least!!!

They will probably lose one of their hundreds of compensatory picks they always seem to have.:pointlol:

It starts with their 1st and 2nd next year and a 5M dollar fine, remember this is the SECOND TIME they got caught.....

And honestly don't tell me that BB didn't know....I have said it all along this has been their practice for many games now, if fact it is so common place that they don't even discuss it anymore, it is just known, "do it"....

If your wife for 15 years made you chicken parm without mozzarella cheese but instead American (nobody does that hahahah) you think in year 16 or 17 she is going to all a sudden ask you if you want mozzarella on your chicken parm? No she doesn't this is the way you want your dish, it goes without saying.....

Insert footballs into the above statement and think on it....

To say we are disappointed in its findings, which do not include any incontrovertible or hard evidence of deliberate deflation of footballs at the AFC Championship Game, would be a gross understatement," Kraft wrote.

I guess Kraft has to try and protect his franchise, but his statement seems very lawyer like. Whatever the punishment, we will all inevitably be disappointed.

I'm glad that the official report at least has the appearance of being unbiased. I expect the league to do little or nothing though. A fine maybe.

This is really bad... for Tom Brady.

The league won't do anything. According to what I've read of the Wells report (excepts only), there's no indisputable evidence. Robert Kraft made this point as well. In addition, he and Goodell are buddies, so if the scale is even or close to, that tips it in NE's favor.

One thing I found interesting though, is the Colts had 4 balls under PSI regulation...

you're stating what should happen. It probably won't.

Im calling it Brady will get suspended 4 games minimum and they will lose a first round pick. Maybe two.

Also Gisele will divorce Brady.

Well at least it's not being completely swept under the rug. Now let's see what Goodell does to see if I gain any small amount of respect.

It was at least amusing to see that Kraft is all pissed off about it. :lol:

I doubt he takes it easy on them. As much of a Patriot fan he is hes not going to be so lenient especially with how everything had been the past year and a half. He only has one way to handle tough situations and thats a death penalty punishment.

I think they'll use this report to say "see we keep our house in order", then do very little discipline wise, even though this is the second time the patriots under bb and brady have been caught cheating.

This report is devastating to the Patriots, even if Goodell goes easy on them.

I sure hope you're right, but I'm not holding my breath.

They absolved Belichick, which means there won't be a significant punishment IMO.

$50 fine, $5000 donation to deflator's anonymous, and time served.

Case dismissed.

In that report there is evidence of one of the equipment managers who calls himself the "deflator" texting about doing it......
