Technico Support Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 OMG ROGERS SAID HE DEFLATES BALLS TOOOOOO He said he deflates them as much as the rules allow. The Patriots deflated them below that. Fuck, how hard is this to understand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyWhioux Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 So when does Roger Goodell come out and say Tom Brady has to play with a special elbow pad to cover up the steel plate in his forearm to neutralize this unfair competitive advantage he's been exploiting, or whatever. Oh man I hope Ed Hochuli makes a big production of pat searching the Patriots ballboy before the game starts like he's fucking checking for foreign objects that might be used to scuff the ball or whatever. Just take that final step and embrace the carny, NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikoBaltimore Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I'm really going to have to change the title of this thread soon... I'm sure some other team will have a player that does something stupid. It's bound to happen sooner rather than later. People discuss it so much they get tired of it (like Craig H) I haven't really talked about it much and am now really fascinated by what happens. Needless to say I'm definitely not sick of it (yet) But between the Pats and the Seahawks (who have had issues as well) I'm starting to look forward to the commercials more. I guess I'd go with Seahawks but I can't say they're the lesser of two evils. They're more like a different kind of evil that many aren't talking about.

Gonzo Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 And the hits just keep on coming for Baltimore. Cody is under investigation for animal cruelty, and the case is being discussed with the Baltimore County State's attorney's office, said Elise Armacost, the director of communications for Baltimore County police.Cody hasn't been charged with a crime.According to sources, the case involves a dog.

NikoBaltimore Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Like I said, Rippa. No need to change the title when stupid shit happens around the league all the time. Another Raven? Goddamnit. I'm glad they're not in the Super Bowl now. Between Ray Rice and this, media week would suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domestic Assault and Murder, perjury, destruction of evidence are okay. Violence against a dog is not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_MJ_ Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Yes, this story is probably overblown and overplayed. Yes, I do believe the Patriots would have beaten the breaks off the Colts regardless of a deflated or inflated phallus. Yes, I'm sure there are other teams in the NFL who have broken, taken advantage of, or downright cheated the rules in some shape or form. Oh yeah, the Seahawks are in the Superbowl too. Yes, I'm a Dolphins fan and this small form of schadenfreude is the only joy I'm going to get this NFL postseason. This week has given me some form of life. Drown me with your hate, Patriot fans. It's my only solace. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I do believe the Patriots would have beaten the breaks off the Colts regardless of a deflated or inflated phallus. Which makes the subterfuge even dumber on their part. It's the NFL equivalent of Shane Douglas crushing Beulah with his suplex and still hooking her tights on the pin, just because. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Both, really, if he is using his influence to protect players/the team. It's a nice juicy scandal that echoes bits of the Ray Rice thing, and should distract the NFL media for at least a day or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, the press conference today ratcheted up "Ballgazi" and the press will hound the Pats and the league all week about it. The Commish might get some questions about it at his press conferences but it won't compare to the Ballgazi ones along with the Rice and Peterson stories. Also, every pro team is hooked up with their local cops so this really isn't that big of a story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy LaRue Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I can see the Steelers story becoming bigger after the Super Bowl, if there's more to it. But on the surface, it seems rather milquetoast. Professional sports teams have gotten special treatment from their local police for years, and it's not going to stop any time soon.
