Message: [QUOTE="Full_Rebar, post: 1453923, member: 3530"] Look, I don't have a NFL rooting interest and I think this whole thing is nonsense, but when I hear NE fans (not saying you) pointing to cold weather as the reason why the balls were under the 12.5 and that's all I'm saying is nonsense. It dropped into the mid 40s during the 1st half. I don't need a gas law to know that cold weather didn't make the balls deflate mid-game. I do believe the NFL is making stuff up as they go and didn't really care about the psi until they got complaints from Baltimore and Indy. I think Brady made this worse by his BS from the start and that made things look worse. I don't think NE gave up a 1st rd pick to protect Brady because Belichick doesn't treat 1st rd picks like Doug Whaley. I'm not a Pats hater, but I think they gave in to the NFL early on because of some other reason. [/QUOTE]
