Is Inflate Gate a serious infraction or just the media blowing a non-issue out of proportion? Coach Belichick and the Patriots have been caught cheating before.
It is my understanding that both home and away teams handle their own balls. No pun intended. Haha. I am sick of hearing about the Patriots balls. Maybe they knew, maybe they didn't? Regardless they scored 17 in the first half with "deflated balls" and 28 in the second half after the balls were supposedly filled to the proper weight. The colts scored 7 in the first half and 0 in the second. I bet they will have a scale on the field for the super bowl. Every team in the national fakers league cheats. IMO but, I still love it.
Regardless of the truth it's improbable the missing 2 psi would have had much of an impact on the game. I get the principle of the matter and the Patriots have some serious character issues so I get why people are upset but they won the game and would have regardless.
I guess the better idea would be for the league to not give questionable people the ability to do shady *?!! like this. Here's a novel idea, let the Refs manage the balls instead of the home team. Or is that not in their union contract?
