“He was always worried about the footalls,’’ Baltz said. “Always. It was very odd. I reported him to the league, but never got any reaction from them. I don’t think they thought it was a big deal at the time. But [McNally] did things that 31 other locker room attendants don’t do. . . . All I know is, when he got [the footballs], he would run. He would take off. Whether he was going somewhere and letting air out, I’m definitely suspicious, but I don’t know for sure.’’

Re: Interesting story on "the Deflator"
Turnover margin: 10 NFL officials not returning in 2014
by Mark Schultz • May 2, 2014
There will be at least 10 officials who will will not return to the field in 2014. At the end of the season, five officials were confirmed to be retiring. A few weeks later, Football Zebras was first to report that Ron Winter had retired.
We now know that head linesman Mark Baltz, back judge Don Carey, and side judge Keith Parham will not be back for the 2014 season. In addition, back judge Billy Smith will be a replay official. (All four did not respond to our requests for comment; the league, citing longstanding practice, declined to comment.)
Mark Baltz officiated in the NFL for 26 seasons and, along with Walt Coleman, was the longest tenured official in the league in the 2013 season. Baltz worked 21 postseason games, including several conference championship rounds, but he never officiated a Super Bowl, despite being the number one ranked head linesman on more than one occasion, according to reports.

Balt2 thought the guy was acting suspicious?
McNally played catch with Tom Brady?
What are the odds that Balt2 was "retired" because of the onset of dementia?
And who do you think fattened up his retirement fund for smearing a lowly ball boy?
Hmmmm?My tebya razdavimComment

Re: Interesting story on "the Deflator"
And yet Walt Coleman is still a ref. No, we know the Cheaters cheat. Baltz isn't telling us anything new.Comment

Re: Interesting story on "the Deflator"
a case where the nfl covered for the pats? couldn't possibly be the case. they only destroyed the spygate footage immediately, they only left the pats unaffected after the initial claims of deflating, they only let the pats play on the edge with illegal formations during hte playoffs are it had been noted that they were outside the rules, they only covered for the headset issue by conflicting the very papers they have.
so it's impossible to believe a ref would say "1 out of 31 trainers acted suspciciously and was called out for it, but nothing happened". Probably should just give them the benefit of the doubt again.Comment

Re: Interesting story on "the Deflator"
I read that article before it was posted here. Doesn't surprise me one bit, why does it shock everybody else. There will come a day when everything the Pats did will come t light--including what we never found out about.Comment

Re: Interesting story on "the Deflator"
So...now it's confirmed that Brady has been cheating for at least 6 years. On top of the chronic cheating exposed by the ESPN article. There is no doubt that the Patriots....spurred by Bill Belichick, are serial, pathological cheaters.
Every one of the Pat's Super Bowl titles should come under question now.Comment

Re: Interesting story on "the Deflator"
Maybe nothing further comes of it, but everyone knows they're cheaters and look at their championships as tainted.Comment
