Re: Tom Brady
We talked about this at the herf tonight and I think the consensus was pretty much that if when it all blew up he should have come out and said something how he likes to play with softer balls (phrasing!) and he just asked the balls to be at the lowest allowable level. He didn't know the exact pressure, he didn't check he just knew how they felt in his hands (phrasing on purpose). If he would have done something like that it probably would have been long past, I hate the Pats and even I said yah that would have been the right thing to do.
These athletes all get caught pushing the bounds to excel, like you'd want your team to do, they all scream and shout how they are so innocent and it seems like the ones that scream the loudest and have the biggest threats are the ones that have been the worst offenders. Lance Armstrong, Barry Bonds, A-Rod, Clemens, there is quite a long list, those just come to mind. The players that got busted and manned up everyone has already forgotten about. Even those that lied to Congress. haha
