#DFG: Canceling the Noise

[RedOctober3829]

OMG HOW DID YOU NOT KNOW THERE WAS ALMOST 2 PSI OUT OF THE FOOTBALL

 

[Marciano490]

He should do the Dirk Diggler thing where he looks at the camera and say:
 
"We can do better.  WE CAN ALL DO BETTER.  And I'm just gonna keep rockin and rollin, man!"

 
Does Bill let Tom do his own blocking?

 

[bankshot1]

Wow
 
The NFL hasn't talked to him yet?

 

[riboflav]

Finally something substantive. League hasn't talked to him yet.

 
I'm starting to wonder if the NFL even cares that much.

 

[NickEsasky]

Was the apology guy trying to pull a Bunk and McNulty on D'Angelo Barksdale on Brady? 

 

[DJnVa]

Seriously, the NFL hasn't talked to him?
 
That's fucking insane.

 

[PseuFighter]

"the ball may feel good one day, and the next day, it might not" -- i feel you, man.

 

[Tito's Pullover]

This is just another data point proving that I am not the same species of animal as Tom Brady.  We are similar, in the way that Bald Eagles and Turkeys are both birds, but he has evolved into something better then I am.  Honestly, it doesn't even bother me that I am this much an an inferior being.  

Thank you - I haven't had a signature in a long time.

 

[loshjott]

Next quote, Tom thinks it's weird nfl hasn't contacted him.

 
He obviously still reads Peter King.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

so the purpose of these journalists is just to get tom brady to say something stupid so they can sound byte it and #BELICHEAT right?

Yes.

YOU RAPED HER. YOU MURDERED HER. YOU KILLED HER CHILDREN. SAY IT! WHO GAVE YOU THE ORDER

[CantKeepmedown]

He's giving them way too much time.

 

[LogansDad]

I don't know how he is doing this.... I can't help but scream at my computer screen at these fucking morons, and he has handled every single asinine question with grace.  
 
Just amazing.

 

[OnWisc]

The NFL hasn't even contacted Brady yet? What kind of investigation are they doing?

Well, last time everyone called Goodell an idiot for not reaching out to the Atlantic City casinos, so I'm imagining he started there.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Ron Borges time!

 

[RedOctober3829]

Ron Borges knows a cheater when he sees one, apparently.

 

[TomRicardo]

Ron Borges might be the dumbest man on the planet.

 

[Omar's Wacky Neighbor]

Who just called him a liar?

Edit, I thought it was Borges.

 

[Leather]

 
Does Bill let Tom do his own blocking?

 
Chest Gronkwell.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Does he know the difference between the ball is less than the weight of a dollar bill?

 

[Bob420]

NFL just needs to release the halftime measurements. Both Bill and Tom said they pump them to 12.5 psi. If we are to take them at their word, we don't need to know if the refs tested them.

 

[ifmanis5]

The NFL hasn't even contacted Brady yet? What kind of investigation are they doing?

A typical Goodell investigation. He hasn't seen the tape of the balls yet either.

 

[CaptainLaddie]

JESUS BORGES.

 

[RoyHobbs]

nice slam at the Colts there

 

[redsoxcentury]

Francesa mad because the Patriots aren't saying they will find out what happened?  can't win with these jerk offs

 

[kartvelo]

Where'd this shit head get his information that the balls were all 15% out of spec?

 

[Luis Taint]

Fucking borges

 

[Hendu At The Wall]

The NFL hasn't talked to Tom Brady about the underinflation issue yet (as of the 4:30 EST 1/22/15 press conference).

 

[phrenile]

"I get the snap, I drop back, and I throw the ball."

Ladies and gentlemen, he's a quarterback.

 

[PseuFighter]

borgicide.

 

[BroodsSexton]

Can we get a Globe headline tomorrow: OVERBLOWN

 

[Rustjive]

That hat's gonna blow up.  Everyone go buy 50.

You're way behind. Those have long been sold out, and if you look at eBay - they've already been going for $60+ because of that.

 

[Reverend]

He's beginning to crack up. He literally can't believe he's being interrogated about this and that perspective of the absurd is starting to crash through.

 

[JimBoSox9]

Whomever asked the "maybe the ones the Bill squirts water on during practice???" gets my gold star prize for the PC.  You knew he was desperate, he knew he was desperate, but he was dragging Coach Bill back in this.
 
 
HANG IN THERE TOMMY!!
 
This is literally the most dramatic moment of the Colts game, right here.

 

[scotian1]

Ron Borges being the usual dick.

 

[JerBear]

"ron, i get the snap and i throw the ball. i don't try to squeeze it. if that's what the colts want to do, that's what they want to do"

[DJnVa]

LOL
 
Making faces now.

 

[PseuFighter]

"I get the snap, I drop back, and I throw the ball."

 
he's a male model for uggs.

 

[Morning Woodhead]

Borges has been waiting for that question for a decade. 

 

[ifmanis5]

Tom saying he didn't notice any difference between the balls in first half vs. second half.

 

[jimbobim]

Seriously, the NFL hasn't talked to him?
 
That's fucking insane.

 
Further proof Roger the Dodger has no idea what he is doing....

 

[Mystic Merlin]

I just got a mobile alert to tune into this presser. Some highlights of past alerts include the SOTU and Ukraine/Crimea.

 

[Corsi]

borges comparing this to a basketball rim being 6 inches off!

 

[eddiew112]

He can barely keep a straight face, this is so fucking dumb

 

[PseuFighter]

You're way behind. Those have long been sold out, and if you look at eBay - they've already been going for $60+ because of that.

 
i wear one to every game because #BELICHEAT

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

@richeisen As Brady is saying, you can not tell the difference between a 13.5 PSI ball and a 10.5 PSI ball. We did that on my show. I couldn't tell.
 

@shalisemyoung shocking - same woman who interrupted me talking to Slater in locker room keeps interrupting Brady

 

[NortheasternPJ]

Dan Roche with the layup!

 

[RedOctober3829]

These national media people have never played a sport in their entire lives.  Who the fuck is thinking about the ball during the game?
 
Fuck off and go cover Kim Kardashian's ass.

 

[fairlee76]

This article on ESPN: http://m.espn.go.com/nfl/story?storyId=12211433 is reading interesting.

---------
The league found earlier this week that 11 of the New England Patriots' 12 game balls were significantly underinflated during the AFC Championship Game, ESPN's Chris Mortensen has reported. In that game, the Patriots' equipment staff supplied balls to referee Walt Anderson at the required two hours, 15 minutes before the game for inspection. As per NFL policy, Anderson marked each ball with his approval and ultimately returned them to the Patriots' ball boys.
---------

Notice it doesn't state that Anderson tested/weighed the balls prior to the game?

To the extent I still care about this story, this is the only question I would like to see answered honestly.
 
And, yeah, I have never heard Brady's voice quaver like it has at times during this interrogation press conference.
