The Deflategate Saga

Want to know what was the worst part of the NFL upholding Tom Brady’s full suspension yesterday?  The Players Union is going to sue the league in Federal Court to have the suspension overturned.  That’s not the worst part.  The worst part is that it means sports talk radio in Boston is going to continue talking about this ridiculous thing for the foreseeable future.  It means that this idiotic story is never going to go away.

He cheated.  He conspired with staff members to use footballs that weren’t up to league specs and destroyed evidence.  Just take the damn suspension and be done with the whole stupid thing.

Now he’ll get a court injunction that will allow him to delay the suspension.  Wouldn’t it be fun if the courts rule in the league’s favor and his suspension began immediately following the ruling… and the ruling came in the day before the playoffs start?  That would be funny.

Cheating professional athletes need to follow the Andy Pettite model.  Get caught?  Fess up.  Be forgiven.  Brady is following the Bonds/Clemens model.  Get caught?  DENY EVERYTHING!  Ruin your reputation.

Nice going Tom.  Thanks for keeping this dick hole of a story alive.  It’s only been seven months after all.  Let’s keep it going for the rest of the year!
