Thornton Melon 546 Posted August 7, 2015 They may have been tampered with by the Ideal Gas Law and not by an individual. The problem is that the NFL had never heard of it before they did all of their Cracker Jack investigation. They were tampered with by an individual beyond what the Ideal Gas Law would do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbfalcon 824 Posted August 7, 2015 I have no idea what you're babbling about. I answered about ten of your phone questions yesterday. I started feeling bad for you. Felt like I was at the Special Olympics or something. You came to battle not even knowing that the league never once asked Brady to hand his phone over. I'm ok with you feeling bad for me if that pity results in you answering the question I asked. I deserve your pity in fact, as I am pretty stupid. So out of pity for me, play along and answer a few questions. 1. The league never once asked Brady for his phone. You've said that unequivocally...... What did they ask for related to his phone? Or if you don't know, what do you think they asked for related to his phone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So out of pity for me, play along and answer a couple of questions. 1. The league never once asked Brady for his phone. You've said that unequivocally...... What did they ask for related to his phone? Again, I know that they asked him to show them things they perceived as pertinent. He refused to cooperate. I don't really know Troy Vincent or that Wells fella. They haven't texted me to tell me the exact items they were looking for. I will inbox you if one of them gets in touch.

parrot 789 Posted August 7, 2015 Those balls were affected by the Ideal Gas Law too. Unfortunately, the NFL knuckleheads doing the readings did not understand that having the balls in the locker-room brought their temperature up, which increased the PSI. If they had just alternated balls when they took the readings, then we might not be in this situation. One of the best parts is how they just disregarded the post-game measurements under the argument that they couldn't specifically identify the Colts 4 balls to know where they started. Total bullshit. They didn't know where any of the Patriots balls actually started either but that wasn't a problem. If what they claim is true; all the balls should have eventually been set to 13 lbs - the Colts balls before the game, and the Patriots balls at halftime. Yet somehow the Colts balls were under the Patriots balls by .7 pounds, on average, when post-game readings were taken. The Wells report just ignored this fact. In fact, according to the testimony of the guy from Exponent, the post game measurements weren't even part of the scope of their analysis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted August 7, 2015 They were tampered with by an individual beyond what the Ideal Gas Law would do I don't know that to be true. I think that it is true, but I don't know that it is true. There is enough doubt in my mind that I would not be suspending Manning for any games if he were part of this. Now, if the Keystone Cops had any brains in their heads, they would have done things differently and we might not be dealing with stupidity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry I can't quench your appetite for knowledge better than that. Newbie, if you answered my question even once yesterday, I'll paypal you $50 right now. Seriously. I asked multiple times something to the effect of "How did the league want to see the info?"......You kept answering the question of "What info did they want to see?".....They are very different questions. Clearly I'm being dumb though, so I'll lay it out. In my mind "What info did they want to see?" is obvious....The answer being texts or emails pertaining to the deflating of footballs, a cover up, etc. In my mind, "How did the league want to see the info?" means: Did they want Brady to forward them the relevant texts? Did they want him to print out the relevant texts? Did they want him to just tell them what the relevant texts said? Was he to hold up his phone and show each relevant text to investigators?.........How did they want to see the relevant texts? And if you don't know for a fact, can you just give me an option that could have worked to the leagues satisfaction? Do you see how these are different questions?

It seems you're as caught up in word play as the rest of the Pats apologists. Or else you're just bored at work. All I know is, you thought the league wanted Brady to hand over his phone and let them search through it as they wished. Once I embarrassed you and straightened you out, you switched to the semantics game. You must have learned that from RP> He'd be proud, fellow Texan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cbfalcon 824 Posted August 7, 2015 Newbie....I'm not playing a game of semantics. It's just a simple socratic exercise to see if your viewpoint is logical at all. But since you can't see where it's going, you are afraid to start....I'll make it simple. Is it your stance that the league only wanted to see the texts/emails on the phone that were about the deflating of the balls, and nothing else? Yes or no.

cbfalcon 824 Posted August 7, 2015 Yes.

cbfalcon 824 Posted August 7, 2015 Absolutely. Which is why he didn't want the league to see it. So we agree the league only wants to see communications relevant to the case and nothing else. We agree Tom Brady would be the one best equipped to identify those communications, thus we agree Brady needed to be the one to identify and provide them. Tom Brady swore under oath that there were no pertinent communications on his cell phone. So 2 questions: 1. If he was telling the truth, then there was nothing on his phone for the league to see. Right? 2. Do you believe Brady was telling the truth or do you think he was lying? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And lies grow bigger and bigger the longer you drag them out. Which is the reason for the stiff penalty. If Brady would have been a man and admitted he screwed up the day after they discovered the deflated balls, there would have been a fine. Possibly a draft pick because of the team's history. But he didn't. He lied. And kept lying. Do the words "Under Oath" really mean something to you? As if Brady would have lied for months and months, but because someone made him take an oath, he'd suddenly come clean? Athletes get a free pass for lying. Even under oath. See Barry Bonds.
