Someone needs to tell Brady's dad that his son is full of it.
If its a worse infraction ...... then penalties have to be greater than those imposed on the Saints .....
New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton was suspended for one year, the team lost its Second round draft pick in 2012 and 2013 and had to pay $500,000 as a result of the NFL's bounty investigation.
Defensive coordinator Gregg Williams, who orchestrated the program, has been suspended from the NFL indefinitely.
Saints General Manager Mickey Loomis got an eight-game suspension.
Saints assistant head coach Joe Vitt was also suspended without pay for the first six games of the 2012 season.
This should be interesting .......
and Kraft speaks
http://www.patriots.com/news/2015/0...ts-chairman-and-ceo-robert-kraft-wells-report
says there is no incontrovertible or hard evidence of intentional wrong doing
wow - now lets just think - what could possibly be incontrovertible or hard evidence - a video of someone letting air out of the balls
the Pats backpeddle is amazing - almost like a skilled DB - no longer that it didnt happen - now no "incontrovertible evidence".....the refuge of scoundrels
and kraft is offended by claim of less than full cooperation. Well, Ted Wells and the NFL legal team might be offended by that attitude.
I am guessing draft picks may be a part of it. There is no reason to release it so soon after the draft unless they had it before and held it for this week. All they did was buy the Pats another year without draft punishment.
It comes out in March, the Pats lose 2015 picks. It comes out in May, the Pats lose 2016 picks.
That could actually be even better. Pats will have higher draft picks in 2016, almost for sure.
So Brady petitioned the NFL for teams to take control of game balls and the league approved it in the area of 2007 or so
And suddenly the cheating scumbags went from the league average in fumbling from 2000 to 2006 to vastly lower than the league average every year from 2007-2014.
What a coincidence
Bronx said:I think Brady gets a game or two ...
I don't think they punish the organization. I think Brady gets a game or two, and we are done. I think they have an out, since the report states Belichick didn't know.
I think Brady should get at least 6 Games, because we play them in week six![]()
When Goodell handed down the Saints punishments he clearly said " ignorance is no excuse " If he does not follow his own precedent when handing down the Pats punishment he should be fired.

He also said that repeat offenders would be punished more severely. I see a lot of talk on twitter that because of SpyGate, the Pats organization is going to be hit hard.
