NFL 2014 Season

[Sanji Himura]

A FOX Sports poll currently suggest that 34% of fans want NE to forfeit the AFC Championship game to Indy, either by stripping the win, or by their own admission(not likely).

Matter will be looked at after the season. Nothing will happen before the season ends. At this point, I am anticipating Goodell to either just lightly tap the Pats on the wrist with no penalty or make the penalty as small as possible.

Just hope the Hawks deflate Brady's balls.

 

[Akmuq]

Keep dreaming, son.

 

[Touring Mars]

Just hope the Hawks deflate Brady's balls.

Wouldn't that give the Patriots an unfair advantage?

At the very least, someone other than Gisele ought to give his balls a quick feel immediately prior to the game to ensure no funny business.

Should it be of the female persuasion or should we have loyal non-Patriot fans be doing the impromptu examination?

Deflategate investigation has now turned up a "person of interest". The person, only identified as a locker room attendant, was allegedly working in the official's locker room where they approved the, at the time, properly inflated footballs. The working theory is that this attendant then took the Patriots footballs into a bathroom for 90 seconds to deflate 2 psi from 11 out of the 12 footballs.

Even though I abhor her, Rachel Maddow recreated the circumstances around the NFL's theory with a street reporter and a gauge. The results, which you can see in the link below, are actually quite telling.

Aren't they cutting it a bit fine if they are going to take any punitive action against the Patriots? Isn't the Super Bowl this weekend?

The game starts about midnight Sunday for me, and will finish about 3.30-4 am. I have a meeting first thing on Monday morning (and every Monday morning from now on ) so it's going to be a bit of a shift. That said, if the game is totally one-sided, I'll likely go to bed and watch the rest of it on Monday evening.

They're going to wait till after the Super Bowl to discipline the Patriots. New Orleans Saints QB Drew Brees appeared on Conan, and naturally, he was asked about Deflategate. He correctly identified a properly inflated ball and an under-inflated ball and also took out a stage light in the process. I'll add the video here for everyone to see.

Next stop Canton,Ohio

Goodell declined an interview with NBC today. What a worthless and hypocritical commish.

To be cynical, NFL isn't going to discipline the Patriots more than a small slap on the wrist. The NFL is just a bunch of hypocritical bunch of 🤬.

Watch the whole game; just drink plenty of coffee on Monday!

 

[Slash]

GO seahawks!

 

[Ryk]

Touchdown England!

 

[Spacegoat]

Ugh, Seattle can't get anything going on offence at all. :/

 

[AnthonyD1993]

All I hope is that the commercials are good.

 

[The Bman]

Was that a GT Academy winner in the Nissan ad?

 

[Crash]

Not sure, but that was the world premier of Nissan's LMP car.

Ugh, Seattle can't get anything going on offence at all. :/

I would argue New England has been controlling the game so far...

 

[Crash]

Beast Mode!

 

[Spacegoat]

Unfortunately yes. Brady has dictated this so far with those quick passes.

Edit: Beast mode!

 

[Ryk]

Positive football into the anti-climax of the half time show...

 

[Spacegoat]

Pretty good game to have your first two career catches in. Gusty call by the 'Hawks to go for it instead of taking the easy field goal.

 

[AnthonyD1993]

The first half alone was 1,000 times better than last year's Super Bowl alone.

 

[The Bman]

I figured the Seahawks would either go for a verticals or a quick slant play.

 

[Jahgee]

We all know Katy Perry isn't gonna beat this

 

[Ryk]

Will she try to jump those sharks?

 

[Dennisch]

We all know Katy Perry isn't gonna beat this

She's coming close with her palm-tree and shark show.

 

[Blitz24]

I missed the entire first half and halftime show. I feel happy.

 

[The Bman]

I was hoping she would have pulled a Janet Jackson. Unfortunately, that didn't happen.

So were a lot of guys. It certainly would have been a revealing end to a bad year for Goodell if that happened. I saw a meme on Facebook saying that as well.
