Brady 4 Game Suspension Upheld

[MadtownPacker]

Damn, lots of interest in a thread about Brady's balls. How the fuck did he get suspended the same amount of games as rice and Ap?

Have you skanks already argued about how stupid it is that this shit is going to court, which unless I am mistaken means the public is paying for the NFL to save face?

One side or the other, or both, will have to pay court costs, since this is not a criminal hearing. The costs may or may not be sufficient to cover actual costs, but it is no free ride.

A rip job on Goodell and punishment. But a funny one. Stay tuned until you find out which actor is too interesting to play Goodell in the movie.

Completions to 17 different players! That's spreading the ball around!

Jimmy Garopolo looked like shit tonight, so for the Pats' sake, they'd better hope Brady can play in those first 4 games...

I thought it was rather telling that Jimmy G played as much as he did. Could it mean the Pats fear Brady is gonna miss at least one or 2 games? Jimmy might have looked a little better had Gronk played.

Not Tom Brady, but an All-Pro Quarterback, who at the time, seemed slightly paranoid.

[Guiness]

That's all kinds of creepy pb, deja vu all over again.

Can't get bigger than the league, right?

Is that Brees? Speaking about the Bountygate stuff?

[pbmax]

Its Brees.

NFL has issued a memo to equipment managers apologizing for the fact that they still haven't gotten their new pressure gauges, per source.

Shoulda used Amazon Prime.

If the judge on DeflateGate case doesn't understand how deflating football can be similar to PED use, maybe he doesn't belong on case.

Why would the judge care about the similarity of an unrelated infraction? Did I miss some comparison the league made?

[Cheesehead Craig]

The judge desperately wants there to be a settlement. However after that last hearing, Brady has the upper hand now with the judge seemingly more on his side. Brady is going to feel emboldened at this point to not admit any guilt and go for the judge to rule in his favor and get his suspension either eliminated or reduced without having to admit a thing.

I think the NFL is screwed and yet another black eye for Goodell.

[smuggler]

It's a black eye for Goodell one way or the other, because the facts show that they bungled the process. It's a black eye for the Pats and Brady because they were exposed as probable cheaters (I think most teams fudge the balls a little bit, but it looks like the Pats really took it to Mission Impossible levels to circumvent the league's controls.)
