All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Merged all things Brady, cheating, bellicheat, etc.
Or what, the big bad hindsight police are gonna come after us??
On a side note, why do you use so many ellipses? It seems like after almost everything you say you put an ellipses. Why do you do that?
1. Yup.
2. I generally use ellipses only at the ends of posts to seem more conversational, and also to indicate I've made my point but more can be said if necessary. I guess...
Im sorry, Mr. Kraft. I'm sorry that you can go **** off. Im not sorry about watching the Hawks beat your ass in the superbowl. That will be truly entertaining.

I find it hard to believe that the officials are so stupid as to not understand that a ball inflated to the minimum pressure is not going to fall under spec when cooled 30 degrees. Until we find out what the test conditions were, what the actual readings were, it's anyone's guess what happened.

Who knows how accurate the various different pressure gauges are? If one was used in the refs room and one was used on the field, they may not read the same. Most gauges in industry have to be calibrated on a regular basis.
Plus, as I believe portable air pressure gauges are still meahanical, they need the release of a certain amount of air to do the test. So, if you test the ball 5 times in a row, everytime you take a reading there'll be less air in the football, because you've been using it to do the tests...
Before every game each team give a list of things to look for to the officials, the Colts listed the inflation of footballs on their list according to Mort during the pro bowl pregame show Sunday.

Did Mort give a reason as to why it occurred to the Colts to ask for it?
Re: Ask A Scientist: Deflategate Is Trumped Up Nonsense
I wonder how much money a hand held pressure gauge calibrator makes and are there bennies? I love it when Sparty gets all sciencey... Why would there be a need for more than 1 gauge? Pre game inspection... 1 gauge... Pats controversy checked with the same gauge... and it's not like checking a car tire pressure concerning air lost. The pin once inserted seals the opening otherwise it wouldn't work. You could probably insert, pull out, insert, pull out, for a minute (sound familiar? I kid) with no observable pressure loss.

Don't speculate, do a test. Buy a football and a buch of different pressure gauges and a compressor and a foot pump and go to town. Make a video. Post it on youtube. Become famous. The guy that PROVED the Pats cheated. You'll be a hero. Never have to buy your own drinks ever again.
