We even did that in high school for literally every game. |

Date: May 6th, 2024 2:51 PM Author: racy menage karate It obviously made a difference or Brady wouldn't have risked his career and liberty outside of a prison to deflate the balls. Nowadays they would have charged him with wire fraud. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5525735&forum_id=2#47639763) |

Date: May 6th, 2024 3:53 PM Author: impressive pozpig university Brady's stats in the 2nd half of that colts game when he played with properly inflated balls were much better than his 1st half stats with "deflated" balls. Then 2 weeks later he won the superbowl and passed for 4 TDs against the #1 ranked seahawks defense. I think those balls were properly inflated too (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5525735&forum_id=2#47640014) |

Date: May 6th, 2024 3:22 PM Author: wonderful plaza puppy yeah, he really risked a lot. i haven't heard of deflategate since i bought a deflated football cake for a superbowl party i hosted. no one cares. also, it didn't matter. this is like the "deciphering signs scandal."
on every fucking play they toe the line on the rules and often commit penalties hoping they're unnoticed. it's a part of the game. you get a play off because a hold didn't get noticed and you rush to snap the ball before the refs know what's up. |

Date: May 6th, 2024 3:30 PM Author: wonderful plaza puppy i really don't think it was that big of a deal or that brady was directing it. people with the pats might have been involved and brady may not have cooperated with the investigation. that doesn't mean he was directing it.
also, athletes can "come back" from anything so long as they're still good. that's why they hire reckless dindu felons so long as they're good at the game. brady went on to win three more superbowls. that sticks out more in people's minds than a deflated football, for obvious reasons. |

Even if he did intentionally instruct his assistants to let some air out of the ball, there’s a bunch of people saying tons of other QBs were doing similar shit. It was more neurotic ocd level shit than a real advantage
2. Point 1 is proven by the fact that he came back after his suspension and totally dominated and won more super bowls. Obviously didn’t mean anything
3. Btw this is also why no one gives a shit about the videotaping. The pats were just as good or better after the scandal. |

Do you not follow sports at all?
Tons of baseball players got dinged for steroids and continued their careers just fine. Even more football players and no one cares at all about it in that sport. It's a known secret the NBA right now is all on PEDs.
Baseball pitchers were scuffing the hell out of the ball like 3 years ag and they had to crack down on it. When a player gets caught now with sticky stff they just get tossed for that game and no one cares - it doesn't become this huge saga for decades.
Teams are fines or docked draft picks for cheating almost every year - pumping fake crowd noise, tampering, hiding shit from the salary cap.
Only the dumbest sports fan would consider deflategate anything other than the mildest of sports scandals. If the Astros was an 8, this was a 1.5.... |

He outscored the other team MORE when they pumped more air in the balls. He won 3 Super Bowls AFTER the scandal. |

Date: May 7th, 2024 4:02 AM Author: Silver floppy church building personal credit line https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Yee
Brady has praised Yee as "a great advisor for me. He's always been focused on football. When I got out of college and was looking for someone to represent me, there were a lot of options. He was someone that really had the same goal where I could find the right spot and my career could flourish ... Whatever your personal goals were, he would support that. [Yee wasn't interested] necessarily in the goals of what an agent may be, but what your goals may be. My goal has always been winning and he's tried to support that in the best way he could and that's why I have so much respect for him."[7] During the Deflategate controversy, The Boston Globe described Yee as Brady's "chief surrogate" and "uber-agent",[8] while The Washington Post called him Brady's "super agent".[1] |
