So people still think Goodell out there protecting Brady 
If it's so SERIOUS why is it that basically every non ESPN associated NFL player (former or recent) and coaches find the topic laughable? We even have former qbs saying this is a common practice. Aaron Rodgers even came out and admitted to liking over inflated footballs and said he "pushes the limits and sometimes goes over the allowed psi" to see whether the refs check them.
Where's the outrage about that?? The only players making a big deal about it all have ties to ESPN. Every single other player that's came out and talked about it other than Terrance Knighton has said this is a joke. This disingenuousness is laughable. The reason Tom won't be suspended a year is because the NFL is aware that this is not a big deal at all.

If it wasn't a big deal the NFL would either do away with the rule for football sizes or allow teams to choose which weight of the balls they would prefer to use.
Apparently it appears there's a standard set because it gives players an advantage
Suspend somebody when you have no concrete evidence.....

Brady should get more time than anyone who got suspended for off the field incidents.
Let's be reality, Ray Rice, Greg Hardy, etc, etc events did not happen on the field of play. They did not directly affect the competitive advantage of the game. These dudes getting year long suspensions for shyt that happened off the field. If Brady doesn't get at least 8 games, this will be the single worst handling of a sports suspension I have ever seen.
Severely punish guys for having off the field violations, but let a dude who was cheating IN GAME get off??

More probable than not in NFL terms generally means you're guilty.
And the fact Brady lied about his relationship and convo with the locker room attendants and refused to hand over his phone or emails makes him appear more probable guilty than not.
Gooddell ain't giving him a year.
Week 12 is Peyton vs. Brady and this could be Peyton's last year at QB. Gooddell's not gonna let that money slide.
What would happen had this been Donovan? How cats don't see this obvious double standard is beyond me. I don't know what the penalty should be but when you fukk with on field shyt it should be more severe than the off field.

The patriots are my favorite nfl team and tom brady is my fav quarterback in the league right now..here is my stance
the report clearly says there is no evidence that any coaching staff or ownership had anything to do it with, so I dont think the team or coaches should be fined or suspended
However; I believe Brady should be suspended for 8 games and a fine of $500,000

So we gonna act like there aren't some rules that areny stringently enforced??? That's is the definition of the intellectual dishonesty l talked about in the earlier post. If it's such a major deal why wouldn't the NFL suspend Aaron Rodgers since he openly admitted to overinflating footballs? If it's such a game changing offense why not open an investigation to find all the cases where Qbs over or under inflate footballs since former QBs have come out and stated this is common practice? If it's such a big deal why are Colts players openly saying it's embarrassing to even bring up inflated balls as a reason for there loss? Let's be real. The only reason this is news is because it's the Patriots and ESPN needs a story. If it were any other qb this wouldn't make the headlines. I'm not even saying he shouldn't get penalized, but yall nikkas are saying a 1 year ban??
. A whole year!? . Yall coli nikkas never cease to amaze. If Tom gets a year, Aaron Rodgers deserves a year too 
. If that's the standard yall wanna set be consistent.
