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

    I have no explanation for what happened,' Belichick says


    FOXBOROUGH, Mass. —Patriots head coach Bill Belichick faced the media Thursday morning, and said he had no idea about the "deflate-gate" scandal until morning after his team won the AFC Championship.

    "I'm shocked to learn of the news reports of the footballs. I had no knowledge whatsoever of this situation until Monday morning," Belichick said.

    And the mental gymnastics of the apologists are in full swing...

    Late to the party..Do I understand correctly that Bill said they inflate to the legal minimum?
    12.5

    So as soon as the test needle comes out they will technically be illegal as a small amount of air is lost in this process no matter how fast you pull it out?

    This explains why they were approved by the refs at the start but were illegal at the half. This is on the NFL for not thinking through their rules properly and
    the Colts for being sore losers for ratting us out so to speak.

    Right - ALL ELEVEN footballs lost 2 pounds of pressure over the course of the first half.

    And the Colts balls were miraculously at normal pressure the whole game.

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

    So, first he says this:

    "In my entire coaching career, I have never talked to any player or staff member about football air pressure,"
    then he says the balls came in low because they inflate them only to the legal minimum?

    Well, which one is it?

    You never talked to anyone about it before, but you have a specific explanation? Yeah, uh, OK.

    Tom Brady to speak soon (within the hour), says ESPN.

    Heard Brady live. He could not tell a difference between the balls in the 1st half and the 2nd half.

    I find that hard to believe.

    Brady is full of shit. He's trollin' us. You could tell he was lying. His voice was quivering and he was very nervous.

    Twitter was hilarious during the press conference, though. I had a good time.

    The original story said early in the second half was when they tested the ball that the Colts intercepted. I don't think they tested (or re-inflated) any of the others until after the game. So he probably couldn't tell the difference, because they were still deflated.

    Story is that there were 24 balls chosen for each team. The refs took out the 12 questionable balls and replaced them with the other 12. Which were properly inflated.

    Eh? I was under the impression that each team provides 12 balls only. Color me officially confused ...

    For this game Brady picked 24 for the Cheats. Have no idea about the Colts.

    No doubt. Brady and Bellichick became honorary Clinton's today. "Deny deny, deny!" You don't even need plausible deniablity, just deny anyway.

    I agree.

    While he is also culpable for what he did, he got his orders from someone. I hope he squeals like a pig, but I'm sure he will be paid very handsomely for deflating Brady's balls and then keeping his mouth shut.

    We will see.

    Aaron Hernandez is getting a one night leave of absence from the joint to tie up the loose ends like the ball boy and clubhouse attendant's involved.

    So we should expect a dead body to be found on Chappaquiddik. Pffft, like that would ever happen.
