In a league that allows players to get out of jail and return to the field, 25% of the regular season for allegedly deflating balls seems a bit excessive to me. Run a dog fighting ring, beat a murder charge, shoot yourself in the leg in a club (with an unregistered firearm), beat your gf bloody on an elevator (with video proof), allegedly get shot in a club yet nobody saw it (then the evidence surfaces that you shot yourself accidentally) but were too drunk to know what happened, get a DUI (putting lives in danger), beat your KID!!!, I could keep going....the NFL lets you back on the field. I don't remember the exact number I read, but prior to this years NFL regular season the NFL saw its first 4 consecutive weeks without a player arrest in years!!! The NFL should be addressing that issue rather than spending BILLIONS to "prove" a player was responsible for under deflated footballs! How many homeless could have been fed and taken off the streets with that?? How many school supplies could have been bought for under funded schools nation wide?? How may people could have gotten the help they needed with the opiate/heroin crisis our country is facing?? Thousands are dying daily, that money LITERALY could have saved human lives with food, shelter or addiction help, only to name a few...
Anyway, like I said before, nice chatting with you and getting some friendly debate going...
I was going to ask you were Brady's face was tattooed on your body...until you said you liked the Bruins...so now I'll just quietly accept you as one of those weird Pats fans haha
