    Nice - suspend the poor guy for just wanting to lose weight...Or...suspend him and "Mr. McNally sign the papers to agree to keep your mouth shut on this matter and Mr. Kraft agrees to pick up your mortgage payments for life along with a slush fund for $500K set up in your name in the Caymens."

    Why suspend them? The Patriots, as an organization, did nothing wrong! It's all a vendetta! People are just jealous of their success! Even if they did deflate balls, it had no bearing on the outcome of the game! Every team does it! Aaron Rodgers over inflates!
    Can I be a New Englander now? Never mind, that made me vomit in my mouth a little.

    Well that's simple to the homer Chowder Head....because Kraft being the great guy that he is was just being nice and going along with the league to help them make this go away quickly.

    OK, I'm not a betting man and could give a coiled up pile about Vegas, but it kind of irks me that they are still 3 point favorites. I know its still May but do they really give that much credit to Belicheat and so little to Tomlin. Or am I putting too much into it?

    I hope Heyward does his best Predator impression with Garraplo's skull and Deebo rips out Gronk's spine.

    Ok, I feel much better now. Thanks for reading, I have to tell you the yoga is really making a difference.

    I'm guessing the spread is somewhat a function of some people thinking the suspension will be overturned.

    I also enjoy yogurt.

    Bullsh*t I get sick of hearing that. The ravens said the week b4 they did it and told the colts. Full balls and the rats win that game no pats* in AFCG. Just like the tapes, there was only 1??? if you believe that I got a bridge to sell you. Then remember, they beat everyone so the tapes did not help. If you know Townsend is blitzing, where may be a good place to throw the ball?
    They cheat and fudell lets them, fodell's 1st name is GUCK btw

    I just got a news alert that Brady's 4 game suspension was upheld. The article also said that he destroyed his cell phone in March the day before he was to be interviewed by Wells.... hmmmmm

    The destruction of the phone (if true) definitely changes my view on whether he will play week 1. In litigation that's destruction of evidence, and even though it was destroyed before the commencement of actual litigation, it was during an investigation that a reasonable person could say was likely to lead to litigation. That won't play well in court.

    The fact that he destroyed it, and said that he often destroys his phones is hilarious.

    I imagine it will hinge on whether the destruction was true/wilful/provable etc.

    If I'm Kraft, Bellichick or Brady, right now I'm going to make it clear I can drag this out and on for as long as possible, in the hope that Goodell caves. The upside of this for everyone else is that it may utterly backfire in court.

    I missed that part from the reports I'd read... really? On the basis of... he likes to get upgraded, or what?

    Problem with this is, now I imagine the NFLPA will go after the NFL in court, and ask for an injunction. Brady might actually retire before the outcome of this is ever finalized. Chances are he'll play every game this season, barring injury.

    I often destroy my phones as well, but in my case it's always immediately followed by a tirade of profanity and a (soon to be broken) promise to myself that in the future I will make sure that the phone is fully in my pocket before I release it from my hand.

    Sources confirming Bell suspension will be reduced from 3 games to 2 games.
