    114deg air inside a football would be easily recognized by touching the outside.

    Not necessarily.

    And there's nothing in the rules about hot footballs 2 1/2 hours before kickoff...

    Of course you can add heated air to a football..people have been using hair dryers to fill air matressses for decades.

    So?

    Here's the point you're missing..

    The Pats have already denied it...

    At no time were any of our footballs prepared anywhere other than in the locker room or in an area very close to that – never in a heated room or heated condition. That has absolutely never taken place to anyone’s knowledge or anyone’s recollection. That just didn’t happen.

    ~~Bill Belichick, yesterday's new conference.

    http://blog.masslive.com/patriots/2015/01/post_19.html

    I guess you could argue that "heated condition" wouldn't mean injecting heated air.

    Great...Lex Luthor has now morphed into the Riddler.

    He decides to clear the air with a press conference to play word games...I'm in awe of the evil genius behind it.

    One more time...

    HE denied knowing how the air pressure decreased;
    Brady denied knowing how the air pressure decreased;

    If they are putting hot air into footballs as you suggest, they were doing it for a reason.

    If that's true...one or both lied. Screwing with game footballs doesnt' get done without the knowledge and consent of Belichick, Brady, or both.

    And yet...you're expecting people to believe them if they come out and change their story?

    Re: Marcia Brady press conference @ 4:15

    Maybe they fully, or partially, filled the footballs with helium to exacerbate the psi loss with the temperature change. Of course, that isn't against the letter of the rulebook as BB stated either, is it?

    A "culture of cheating"? Horse****.

    Spygate was a powerplay between Goodell and the Pats. When the Pats started taping signals, there was NO RULE against it. The rule was only changed because the other teams who hadn't been smart enough to think of it themselves ganged up in the competition committee and rammed it through.

    The Patriots didn't think it was fair so they made an issue of it.

    Until now, that's the ONLY incidence of cheating that was hung on the Pats.

    Culture of cheating?

    Bull****...
    I don't believe one word of that. Prove it with your so many sources within the depths of the NFL.

    Goodell and Kraft are thick as thieves. The idea that there is a "power play" between them is ludicrous.

    Yes, "culture of cheating" is exactly true!

    Whether you believe it of not, it's true. I wrote extensively about it over at the Range.

    The short story is...

    Observation is not against the rules. There is no such thing as stealing signs. If you're stupid enough to wave want you want to do on D from the sidelines and the other team sees it, it's YOUR OWN ****ING FAULT.

    In 2000, when some bright boy on the Pats suggested videotaping opposing D coordinators to build a data base of their signs, IT WAS NOT AGAINST THE RULES.

    It was just a smart idea.

    It wasn't until Eric Mangini took the Jets HC job over Belichek's objections that he ratted out the Pats to the commissioner, who then informed the competetion community.

    The competition committee, and all the other teams too stupid not to have thought of it, freaked out, and because NONE of them had the same thing in place, THEY BANNED IT.

    The Pats, quite rightly, were pissed, and when I say the Pats, I mean BOTH Belicheck AND Kraft, who felt this was totally unfair and the league USING the competition committee, which sets the rules, as a way to legislate against the Pates BEING SMARTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE.

    So, they decided to make an issue of it and dared the Jets to bust them on it, because even though they knew that they were outnumbered in the boardroom, they wanted to defend what they had done by smoking Goodell and the others out.

    The rest is history, and the animosity is there on both sides still...

    Why ask me when you can answer your own questions?

    You guys are doing the same thing with Belichek that you do to me all the time - whining that I won't say things in a way that let's you make your dumb arguments.

    If Belichek's haters want to use innuendo and speculation to pin him with the Dr Evil tag. is it so surprising he's careful with what he says?

    Seriously.

    The Pats balls checked out with the refs.

    Then, after a half, they didn't, apparently to the Pats advantage?

    Now, I can understand why the Pats would be suspects, but I don't see why it's absurd to say it might NOT be them.

    There are others that could benefit from this situation, and that doesn't even rewuire the hot air scenario...

    Re: Marcia Brady press conference @ 4:15

    Your take is ridiculous Farticus. Even if they did not do anything against the rules, it is just like Spygate -- where they also were not doing anything against the rules. It goes against the spirit of the game, it goes against good sportsmanship--are these the types of things you want to be teaching children who idolize NFL players? No.

    Deflating the balls benefits no one besides the Patriots. Warren Sharp has essentially proven that.

    Why don't you take your love for the CHEATING Pats* to a Patriots* board?

    I'm sure you could find others that will agree with you there, but that is the ONLY board you will find that.

    1. I have.

    2. No, it's not, but if you wish to keep CLAIMING it is, you can always provide an explanation.

    There is already a thread where a physics professor supports my position.

    Do you have anything other than your ass to support yours?
