I think it’s roughly the equivalent of a corked bat or doctored ball in baseball.
Baseball takes those kinds of cheating seriously, and will suspend the player.
Brady should sit a few games, starting now.
You can think anything you want - but you are wrong none-the-less.
It's not a valid comparison. Try again.
Which “It”? Use of unidentified pronouns has muddied the conversation almost as much as the completely contradictory reports.
The precedent penalty is...a reminder note. The Vikings, for example, we’re caught on camera heating balls during a cold game just this year. Aaron Rogers claimed in November that he pumps the balls up beyond the guidelines because he likes the ball even harder...and pretty strongly implies that those balls regularly make it through “inspection”.
Theisman personally experimented with ball inflations and said he can’t tell the difference in the range being discussed, as have others. Anything above 10 PSI is just plain hard.
No one on the field apparently noticed any difference when the Pats used the Colt ball in the firs half (per Colt LB), or when they used the balls inflated at half-time.
This is a Media manufactured issue. I want Seattle to win; please stop making me sympathetic to the Pats...its making me puke in my mouth!!!
