Tyrone Biggums said:Curious about something and it's probably so far out there that it doesn't matter. What if Brady said some racial stuff or was getting something on the side from one of the many girls that throw themselves at him and was afraid of getting this stuff leaked? I see that as really one of the only reasons not to just hand over his phone. I think we all know in this society if it was found on his phone then it would have leaked eventually.

I assume it was in the letter from the cell phone carrier.
If this is all true, it changes my opinion on the entire matter. Not the part about how ridiculous the entire thing is, but Brady's involvement. Switching out the phone on the day of the Wells Report interview goes beyond suspicion for me. What I don't understand is why Brady and his counsel would acknowledge it at all. Doesn't seem brilliant.

Whew, bold move by the NFL by doubling down on the incorrect believe that "ambient temperatures don't affect PSI" pic.twitter.com/aodygFGbVZ
I am not trolling. I have not found much of interest to discuss regarding the Pats, but today's news is obviously a big sports story.Holy shit, something bad happened to the Pats and you're magically here to troll. I'm shocked.

Oh yeah... one of you clowns owes The Jimmy Fund $500 too. Remember that bet where you said Brady would have the whole suspension overturned? I'm always happy to help a good cause.

Felger and Mazz have alluded to this and they have been hammering that the NFL wanted the phone to see who else Brady was texting about deflating the balls, possibly Belichick. When Felger and Mazz were pressed about why they kept going to this Felger said something along the lines "Hopefully one day we can go into where this info came from but that's what we are being told". I personally can't recall if they said they got the info from inside the Patriot's organization or someone close to it.cshea said:I still don't understand what they expected to find on the phone. The had the Dorito Dink's phones. They had other staff and team personnel. They had all communication between Brady and these people. What were they looking for, Bradytexting his dad with a "Gee I sucked, Dorito Dink didn't deflate enough today"

This is, hands down, the most sickening aspect of all of this.Violence against phones = violence against women according to RG.

You need to pronounce the "e" in Iphone as a vowel, as in Persephone, and therefore the phone is feminine, and "protected" by the NFL's policy of violence against women.Valek123 said:My favorite so far:

@PP_Rich_Hill
Ah, in the footnotes, Goodell rejected all of the NFLPA's responses because he believes Exponent's testimonies. That's all.
What's really interesting is that the NFL's chosen leak and pull quote have absolutely nothing to do with whether Brady knew about any deflated footballs. They're going to stand and fight on the cooperation.
The leaking of the phone destruction is the definition of a red herring. They had no right to Brady's phone before, and still do not have a right to view it. It is purely public relations posturing.
I remember when the same could be said about the Patriots pre-ParcellsStitch01 said:I do. Let me know if you want it in memory or in honor of someone. I'll pay it this weekend.
Brady is still missing 0 games, the Jets are still a joke, and we have still seen more titles and playoff games for our team than you will see it you live to be 120. We will be OK.
It wasn't clear in the WR, but I assume so. Not sure if it was established BB had a 2nd phone.loshjott said:That one was team-issued, right?
I'm not speculating anything at all. You're missing the point. The overall point is maybe there is an unrelated reason as to why Brady wouldn't turn his phone over. I know that even if my girlfriend looks at one text thread she's going to go through another thread or two. Prrotecting his privacy in this TMZ world is everything. If something damaging was stumbled on he stands to lose a lot more than this case.Marciano490 said:
