    Today's 'Ballghazi' presser.

    No explanation of why the atmospheric conditions only affected their footballs and not the ones supplied by the Colts.

    It's funny how the atmosphere works...affecting the Patriots but not the Colts...silly atmosphere.

    I can't believe a "genius' like Bill Belichick* expects people to believe that bullshit story.

    - - - Updated - - -

    And we are expected to believe that the greatest genius that ever walked the sideline knew nothing about how air pressure in a football affects performance before this week.

    In a way it doesn't matter. The damage is already done no matter how the league goes about adjudicating it. The Patriots and their fans thought they were finally getting out from under the cloud of "Spygate". This was to be their I told you so moment. They were far enough removed from Spygate that if they won this one they could tie them all together Super Bowl wins and losses all 6 of them and claim Spygate was insignificant. That there was no hint of cheating in their last 3 Super bowls ( which of course is stretching it to say the least) so they would pretend all the prior SB wins were magically cleansed.

    But now this. It tells everyone outside of Boston that the Patriots can't win legitimately. Or that will be the sense of it. True or not. So they may or may not win, but every single accomplishment that team has will be viewed with a jaundiced eye from now until the end of time. And I love it.

    Y'all are just haters. It's SCIENCE! (Of course, there's still the pesky fact that none of the balls the Colts used deflated in the same manner, but never mind about that...)

    Carnegie Mellon University physics professor Gregg Franklin said weather conditions should be strongly considered.

    While the balls were presumably inflated indoors to NFL standards two hours before kickoff, Franklin said temperatures in the low 40s could adversely affect air pressure in the balls.

    "Absolutely," he said. "It's pretty basic physics that when something that's inflated cools off, the pressure goes down."

    Franklin's theory is that tampering was unlikely, but rather the cool air was a factor.

    "It actually comes out to be a pound and a half, if you add up the numbers correctly," he said. "If one measured a pound and a half or two pounds from that, I would say there's no evidence that it's no more than basic physics."

    The rest of the story will be how the refs look the other way when it comes to the Pats. Squeezegate.

    Re: Patriots coach Bill Belichick 'shocked' about 'deflate-gate' scandal

    Obviously the Colts kept they balls warmer. I have had a lot of experience with both warm and cold balls. I have found that if you keep your balls warm they will stay pretty much the same, if they get hot they can even enlarge and get harder. If you let your balls get cold they will most certainly get soft, and smaller. The answer is adding a ref that does nothing but check the temperature of the QBs balls. If they are to cold the ref can then warm the QBs balls up to the proper temperature before the play resumes. If the QBs balls are to warm the ref can simply wave the QBs balls around in the cold air till they are the proper temperature.

    It's all simple physics.

    I agree with you. However, the thought of Goodell getting up there and saying their investigation didn't find anything or couldn't prove that the Patriots did anything wrong turns my stomach...pisses me off...

    Ok so let's just say for a minute that all this Physics Professor is saying is true. Why did it only happen to 11 of the 12 balls?

    And why did it only happen to Brady's balls?

    That physics professor needs to go home. He's drunk.

    Carnegie Mellon University wouldn't happen to be someplace around Boston, would it.

    No, actually it's in Pittsburgh. Since X-T works there, maybe he should go pay the professor a visit and kick him in the head or something.

    This. Absolute bullshit if (more like when) it happens.

    Bellichick needs to resurrect Arlen Spector to explain away these magical balls he has.

    The Physics Department is a short walk away from my office, too. I could actually do that.

    The only thing that Belicheat is truly surprised about is that he got caught.
