    Any cop worth their salt can tell if you are lying to them, I don't know what this ladies credentials are but I'm sure there are plenty of people who study this stuff and could tell as well.

    Knowing someone is lying and proving it in a court of law is entirely two different things though.

    I regularly interrogate people for a living, although likely not to the degree of a detective (moreso along the lines of a beat cop). Yes, it is absolutely possible to tell when someone is lying when you are the person questioning them. It's about the questions being asked and the verbal responses given, moreso than body language. I don't care what this so called Doctor says, her entire process of determining whether someone is lying or not is based on the assumption that every single person responds the exact same way. Not everybody gets angry when accused of something they did or didn't do.

    Yeah, I'm not validating her claims or not, simply because I don't know myself but generally, most people probably portray the same behavior when lying and thats what she is basing it on more than likely.

    Other than watching where someones eye's go when answering a question, I don't know what to look for.

    I read an article a year or so ago that said the best way to tell if someone is lying is to ask them to respond to you via email. I can't remember their reasoning behind it but that was the conclusion that some behavioral "experts" had came to. My buddy once got in an argument with a girl that told him that it was easier to spot a liar on the phone than in person. I thought it would be easier in person as well but maybe the league should "interview" Brady via email? LOL.

    I guess since he's an innocent snowflake, now Brady is out there saying he's trying to move past deflate-gate and that this has caused his "feelings to get hurt."

    Boo-Hoo. He gets caught cheating and now he's the victim? How far are these people from reality?! Egotistical.... self-entitled.... s.o.bellicheat.. Even judge judy would rip these guys to shreds. They are making a mockery of the NFL, football fans, and Roger in particular.

    BFT you're wrong about Smith.
    DUSHETTE ask him if they were going to win the game,
    Smith yeah, if we do all the things we were taught and stay at it
    DUSHETTE is that a guarantee?
    Smith Same yeah as above with words after Yeah cut off
    Here is an unedited interview but even it is cut down
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tg-YK5DHhvY

    I forgot, all you saw on KDKA and other lairs networks was, You going to win? Yeah. Pay attention to the above video
    Smith was going to be good and duchbag dushette broke him

    I'm not a professional, but Brady seemed out of sorts and VERY guilty in the first few minutes of his press conference. That is just my personal observation.

    As time went on in the presser he gained more confidence, most likely since the reporters weren't really ripping into him.

    I just wished the ball boy/ locker room attendant / or what ever he likes to be called would man up and tell the NFL that he was told to let the air out,, instead of taking the fall... but that won't happen

    HA HA, you know Kraft is going to pay him to keep silent. Send him on a plane never to be heard from again.

    It doesn't matter.

    If there is video and if that video is released to the public, then the Pats are sunk, in the court of opinion. And there won't be a single player (past or present) who will believe an attendant acted on his own in this manner.

    If you all want a really good laugh, go to this Boston.com article and read the Chowdaheads comments. They're in complete denial. From a total BS story, to actually believing that this ball boy did it alone, to rationalizing it as 'he did his job taking the balls to the field.' Two people actually (seriously) suggested that the attendant was paid off by either the Jets, Colts, or Ravens to make the Pastries look bad.

    Do you believe the NFL would release the video?, I don't, there is no way in hell that video gets released to the public.... unless TMZ happens to get there hands on it ;)

    Exactly.
    I will be willing to bet that this guy will take the fall (paid by Kraft of course) and say that he did it alone without BB or TBs knowledge because he thought that it would help them. This will allow the NFL to minimally punish the Pats, TB and BB to keep their Cred, and the Chowdaheads to continue to believe that everyone hates the Pats because they are good. But the entire rest of the nation will think differently. One thing though, is that I believe that keeps Belicheat up at night. Josh Miller on local sports talk radio said that what matter most to BB is that he has the respect of his peers and with this he's going to lose more of it. I think explayers making comments like they do proably eats him alive inside. And the cry is only going to become louder and larger.

    Me thinks the Mob probably already took care of the problem.
    I can see it now. Psssst. Hey kid, Mr. Brady has invited you to have dinner with him and Gizelle. Rumor has it there is a Victory Secret model that thinks you're cute and wants to have dinner together.
    Upon arrival, Wow are those alligators in that moat?

    The thing where he really dogged on Welker was on a radio show though right? Like after this story picked up some steam he started upping the ante on his smack talk later in the week and that's when he talked about "lighting Welker up" and stuff like that. He said more than what was in this interview and that was more of the stuff I was talking about. I don't know if anyone can find that or not but I know I heard him say that.
