Brady is a whiner. He got caught with his hand in the cookie jar and that is that. You figure, a quarterback has to handle a football thousands of times during training and a season. He knew very well what that football should have felt like, so for him to say he had no idea is preposterous. It isn't rocket science, he just thought no one would notice.

Do the crime do the time.

Really? I dont recall that bieng mentioned in the ultra corrupt Wells report.

Lets change the word "Quarterback" to "Official NFL referees" and change "Thousands" to "dozens" and change "he knew" to "They knew" and we come to the real cruz of the issue:

"You figure, a official NFL referee has to handle a football dozens of times during the Colts game. They knew very well what that football should have felt like."

So mr smart guy, please explain to all of us "whiners" how Brady managed to get away with playing with 11 deflated balls right under the referees nose without them bieng even remotely aware until a Colts player brings it to thier attention.

Goodel better hope his office has deep pockets. By the time the union gets done with him over this one, he will regret not having resigned over the way he handled the Ray Rice assaulting his wife issue.

"Connecting the dots" and "believing he knew" are not the same as "overwhelming unequivocal factual evidence proves Brady guilty".

That's all they got? "We believe".

If you want to worry about someone, worry about Goodel. He will not likely survive this one--especially given the way he botched the rice affair.

And I am sure Robert Kraft is not to happy with the way this farce played out, and Kraft has alot of clout.

Then you never read the report. They used the exact same language the NFL always uses for finding someone liable.

And the report isn't corrupt; you just admit you haven't even read it. The NFL commish is best buddies with Robert Kraft, and Tom Brady is one of the NFL's top starts and golden boys, so it's absurd to claim that the NFL has some agenda against New England or Tom Brady.

Obviously not. They amaturish and incompetent way this "investigation" was handled clearly shows an agenda. Hell, Judge Judy would have done a better job!

Oh yes it does. Guilty is a criminal charge. Brady is not being accused of a crime. The NFL uses civil language for culpability and that is exactly the civil language they always use.

In civil law you are looking for "greater than 50% chance of something happening". In criminal law you are looking for "99% chance of something happening". So the NFL is absolutely, without question, saying that they find Brady is liable for what occured. They couldn't be clearer. "More than likely" is the precise language one would use.

I just found it comical that Tom Brady made remarks about how it doesn't taint the Super Bowl win.

Um, Tom, you don't get to make that call. The general public does, and it of course taints not just this past Super Bowl win, but to some degree... your entire career.
