Not at all. It's pretty damn obvious I'm being serious and pointing out a major fork in the process where 24 balls were all correctly pressurized, and then sometime between the bathroom and the field, all 12 Pats balls became underinflated, whilst all 12 Colts balls remained properly inflated. There's THE fork.
That you think it's trolling shows up your insecurities, sensitivities, and inability to be objective and CRITICAL thinking.
Rogue Ball Boy. Saint Tom and Cardinal Bill had nothing to do with it. Ball boy under no directive whatsoever by either Saint Tom or Cardinal Bill, over the years, to tamper with the balls to THEIR liking. He just went rogue for no reason. Even tho! the NFL had been aware of complaints all year of the Patriots engaging in ball deflation thru the regular season, such that Goodell decided to try to set up a sting to entrap them. The NFL AWARE OF IT HAPPENING all year.
All balls leave Wilson factory, pre-packaged at between 12.5 and 13.5 pounds, and Wilson attests to the quality assurance that all balls will last for two years at that pressure if untampered with.
So New England has 3 of the 5 best ever periods of fumbles/offensive play ratios. Who has the other two? Colts. Brady's buddy when they went to the league to have the ball provision rules changed. Better check Mannings balls too. *ingG cheaters. Hope they get Mark McGuire HOF treatment when they r done. Banished forever.
If this was Vegas, they'd be tossed from the casino for counting cards. Don't stop at Mark McGwire, give them the Pete Rose treatment
I suggest you buy a brand new Wilson football, pre-packaged, not second-hand, and let it sit in your garage for two years and see what happens to it. It's like a Big Mac.
Colts Manning, not Broncos ManningWe have fumbled like it's going out of style
Brushing footballs to make them rougher etc is ok. And will not cause balls to lose pressure. Wilson says only if someone sticks a pin in them or does a freezer job on them. (tampers with them directly in a way to cause deflation).Which had precisely nothing to do with anything.....
You do get that teams are allowed to use football's, and Taylor them to the preferences of their team right?
I'm just worried you might think they are supposed to use them brand new out of the wrapping untouched...
You would do well to heed the lesson of Lance Armstrong. For years thought of as lily white by his supporters until they got the evidence. Some healthy scepticism of your team would not go astray.LOL
Now you are talking out of your arse... Have you been paying attention to this debate at all?

FWIW I don't think it's an issue with manning. His numbers are consistent throughout his careerWe have fumbled like it's going out of style

So what you are saying is they manipulated the ball but stuffed up the rate of manipulation. Sound logic there.No, that's not really what he said....
Regardless, teams are allowed to manipulate the balls and set them up for weight and for PSI per NFL specified range.... So they are all altering the psi from what they come at out of the box. Are you new to this topic? Genuine question

I'm awaiting the report. I have my doubts about some of the numbers but am prepared to suspend disbelief. But the saying a fish rots from the head down applies to football teamsYawn... I've said repeatedly that if the Pats are guilty they should be punished.
The scepticism of the Pats is ALL that's been on display by one side of this debate. Some of us here are just trying to get the loons to try debating facts....
You'd get that if you were truly fair minded

It is actually premised on the belief that if there is cheating, it starts from the top, it would not be the decision of a minor functionaryIndeed. But your last sentence is stupidity - unless you are implying it has some application in this case. Which is to prejudge. Making, again, your pretence of fair mindedness mere hypocrisy
