NFL ‘angry’ as 11 of 12 Patriots footballs deflated | New York Post

As was President Obama when the IRS targeting scandal first broke. Outraged is usually the word of choice.

Onward and upward Roger.

The NFL had no comment in response to either report, but a high-ranking league official said Tuesday afternoon the NFL expects to complete its investigation by the end of the week.

Troy Vincent, the NFL’s vice president of football operations, told NBC Sports the league wants to wrap up the investigation quickly so as not to take attention away from Super Bowl XLIX on Feb. 1.

“We obviously want to … get that behind us so that we can really get back to the game itself,” Vincent told NBC’s “Pro Football Talk Live.”

Do you think it would be a big deal if the baseballs were tampered in the World Series where the Giants hitters got the tight, bouncy balls but the KC hitters got the soft, squishy balls? Uh, yeah I think so.

YOUR LEAGUE IS RIGGED YOU POS ROGER GOODELL. WE HAVE PROOF THE AFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME WAS FIXED. YOU SHOULD BE HANGED BY YOUR NUTS FOR THIS.

I cannot believe the good people of Indianapolis are not going ape shit. Somebody needs to hire a lawyer and sue for fraud. Could be a gambler who had Lucky. Maybe even a fantasy fag who had Lucky. This needs to be taken away from the NFL and investigated independently. If somehow Belichick did this with a ball boy and nobody in the NFL, he needs to be banned for life. But I doubt that scenario. Had to be a conspiracy.

A toast. To that stooge Jim Nantz. And creaming my pantz. We're onto Arizona! All balls out!

Thanks and credit to Howid.

Didn't the Comish burn tapes to protect the Pats

Goodell: Destroying Spygate tapes was 'right thing to do' - NFL - ESPN

So yo expect me to believe he's upset they let a little air out of the balls...

[howid]

so what's a foreign object here or there, a chair, salt in the eyes...

onward and upward in the national football entertainment!

Both teams should have to use same balls.

No shit. This would never happen in MLB. If it did, would go nuclear. Vinatari's shank'ed fg now becomes suspicious. GTFOH that the NFL can shift the blame to Belichick. This is their league. They control everything. Now we find out the balls were tampered and it appears this practice has been going on forever. The entire playoffs have now been tainted. That game was rigged. It is a fact. Many of us have been accusing the NFL of fixing games. Now we have proof. Let me ask something. If you had inside information Brady would be playing with deflated balls and Lucky would be playing with tight as rock (and Allah knows what else) balls, would it help you cap the game?

FUCK YES IT WOULD. BRADY AND UNDER.

Let me fix that for you...

Both teams have to show some balls

Anybody actually think the Colts would have made a game of this if they played with blue balls?

[stevo]

No difference in game outcome agreed.

I just think why leave open any doubt by letting a team control that aspect. Refs already trying to run in and get ball down with how fast offenses want to play nowadays so I can't fault them.

Not a Pats hater either. Just seems some controversy always pops up with Pats
