Man up and admit it, punk.
Did you ever think that he actually didn't do anything wrong and doesn't want to admit it just to put it behind him?
Someone made a nice analogy in regards to this. If you got pulled over for speeding and got a $1000 ticket...and you weren't speeding would you just pay the ticket and not fight it?
Once again what proof has there been that he wanted those balls lowered below the legal limit? The only texts about him mentioning specific PSI levels he asks for it to be at the legal level...on the lower side of it but at the legal limit.
Brady destroyed his phone - which the NFL didn't say they needed.
One of the guys called himself the deflator - which means what? You can deflate the ball to the lower LEGAL limit.
It's silly to just sit back and claim "Just admit what you did" when you have no idea what happened and there is 0 proof that he actually asked for those balls to be deflated below the legal limit.
If the NFL wanted to actually prove there was tampering with the footballs they would've gone out of their way to get proper measurements right before the first half started in that game. They waited til the 2nd half...after a half of football was played in cold/wet conditions. Only one ball(despite the early incorrect report) was significantly lower than the legal level and even that was only like 2 PSI levels...not like it was flat.
Don't just buy what the NFL is feeding you and get caught up with the irrelevant headlines they threw out there to confuse the public.
If this wasn't the NFL and it was a normal court and Brady was accused of a normal crime this would've been thrown out of courts long ago. All the evidence is speculation and awful investigation by the NFL from day 1.
They tested PSI levels during random games this past season...did you see any of the findings? I can guarantee you if those findings made the Pats/Brady look worse they would've been all over ESPN.
I can't stand Roger Goodell after all the BS he did with us and that Lance Briggs tampering case and this is a total power trip/smear campaign and it's embarrassing that they would do that to one of the best players to ever play the game without any real proof.
