BREAKING: Patriots Found Guilty For Deflating Balls

[monosylab1k]

Didn't see his latest press conference. Did he explain why the Colts' balls were legal and the Patriots' weren't?

Why would he? He explained his footballs. If the Colts want to offer an explanation for theirs, then that's on them. Who knows, maybe they cheated to keep them inflated properly.

The boffins at HeadSmart Labs, who develop testing devices to aid in reducing sports concussions, did their own experiment.

They tested a temperature difference of 75 degrees and the game time on the field 51 degrees. They also wet the 12 brand new footballs to simulate real game time conditions on the day in question.

The moisture, these scientists argue, would increase the volume of the ball and decrease the pressure.

I have no reason to believe these are a covert group of Patriots obsessives. They are students and professors at Carnegie Mellon University, so they might know their science.

They discovered that merely the drop in temperature and the wetness of the balls reduced the pressure by an average of 1.8 psi.

The maximum they saw was a drop of 1.95 psi.

That is today's Belifull of deflationary science. Mythbusters, it's over to you.

He preferred his balls at 14.59 psi.

Little fella, there are a lot of things you don't know.

how would that be cheating though? ensuring that rules are followed = cheating?

[Avante]

again, i don't get what my fanhood has to do with anything. are you suggesting my favorite team reflects my intelligence? how so? am i supposed to change my favorite team so i can look smarter? you don't make any sense

Wow~~~~~~~~~

How about.....I don't appreciate some dummy who foLlows a team as ed up as the Raiders trying to play critic...ok?

Dude, this whole thing is about........... integrity, that's isn't obvious? Do you really think we don't all see that...well?

My.,..OBVIOUS...point was it's a stupid rule, each team should be able to use whatever air pressure best for them....O-K?????????????????

Wow~~~~~~

Doing anything to the footballs after the official pre-game check is cheating. Doesn't matter if it's inflating or deflating. I don't seriously think they cheated. But if NE is exonerated of wrongdoing, then why wouldn't Indy's balls come into question?

you still haven't answered my main question... what does my fanhood have to do with it? you think because im a raider fan and they were run poorly, that means i am of lower intelligence? what do the raiders have to do with anything when it comes to my criticisms

there's no reason to question a ball that was found to be properly inflated

[pgardn]

No not really.

14.45 psi ?

[monosylab1k]

The perfect crime.

You are a weird little to be blunt. Funny watching you...MINUS 330!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...and...plus whatever. That right there showed me what you were all about, backfired didn't it shorty?

You work too hard at trying to critize others guy and it sucks, especially since you simply don't know enought about this stuff to play that. I'd take you to school talking Raiders.

Cool trying to play critic guy, got it? You just aren't equipped to try that.

The Raiders suck just like you do....ok?

Don't you have a 12 year old VC hooker to get your knob polished by?

Don't you have enought sense to know the US Navy didn't have liberty in a war zone? And....those girls had to have a work permit to work the bars, had to be 18.

So stupid it's comical.

So did all the underage hookers really reject all black soldiers cuz of their big s, or is that just a fictional thing in Full Metal Jacket?

First off stop with this stupid...underage...thing, ok? You do know 15 year olds were getting married over there right? So what was the legal age of consent back then, since you have no clue....underage????

There was an area in Olongapo called...The Jungle. That was where the black guys (whites had to be with black friends) hung out. The jukeboxes had soul, blues, R&B on them over there. Not country, rock and roll. Yes the girls didn't like working ...The Jungle....because it took too long with black guys. So instead of getting two/three s a night or more $$$$$, they made less. The size thing....nay!

Who the cares about how young girls were that were getting married over there? Any person with actual morals and ethics (i.e. not some grotesque fat old got) wouldn't be okay with ing some 15-year-old in a third-world backwater country regardless of what their "age of consent" was.

And anyone who knew a damn thing about this at all would know all those bar girls had to have work permits to work the bars, they had to be 18 to get those pernits. Go ahead moron Google it.

My point dummy was that it is a different world over there, and all this...underage....stuff doesn't apply. I was just a kid myself back then.

Damn you're dumb.

read...

about work in Thailand and where one is required to have a work permit.

It was like that everywhere we went. This bull about 12-15 year old girls in those bars is just that....bull . Sure some 16/17 year olds probably lied but we didn't know that.

[Clipper Nation]

You're already hedging and backpeddling. The reality is, you're an old fat creeperPERIOD

[Avante]

You're already hedging and backpeddling. The reality is, you're an old fat creeperPERIOD

The facts are I was 19-22 when I was oiver there, and nobody cared about...."how old are you?"....at all. It was a total non factor. And if you'd been in my shoes you'd done the same thing and you know it. Unless you really are a got.

Dude, sometimes you really do look about as stupid as stupid gets, you honestly don't know anyone in the military?

[Clipper Nation]

nobody cared about...."how old are you?"....at all

Yet you somehow know for sure they were all 18? Riiiiight.

You're a creepy old got, that's it and that's all.

Damn guy, you just can't ever get anything right ...EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why totally ignore what I said about that, well? And, do you honestly not have a clue about the...MILLIONS...of servicemen that came before and after me?

Stupid, why do you think there were all those bars right next to naval ports,,,,well?


Nobody should be this stupid, wow~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

[Raven]

go ahead and start laughing. its a valid question

no it's not, it's really dumb..say tom likes his balls at 12.5psi and Luck likes it at 13.5, assuming it deflates by 1, the pats balls would then be too deflated while the colts balls would still be within rules.

[Raven]

btw, how the thread got derailed so bad?
