There was evidence, testimony, that Brady had contacted the ball handlers via text regarding inflation of the balls.
Once, weeks earlier, after a ball had been overinflated. This is too easily explained to constitute evidence.
quote:
That is what the NFL wanted the phone for and Brady conveniently destroyed it before they could get it.
Then why did they tell him they didn't need it before he destroyed it?
quote:
Whether there was a single incriminating thing on the phone or not, he acted in a fashion that makes it look like he was trying to hide something
Which is not actually evidence of anything other than not trusting a league office renowned for leaks.
quote:
Goodell can act, per the CBA as he did. That is what the Appelate court ruled.
Which has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not Goodell acted in accordance with the facts of the case.
Once again, it has never been proven that the balls were even deflated to abnormal levels, let alone that Brady participated in a scheme to do so. It seems to me that in order to convict someone of a crime, you should have to be able to definitively prove that a crime was committed. And the science is crystal clear: in wet, cold conditions like that game was played in, you should EXPECT there to be the level of deflation that we saw. Never mind the fact that the investigation was incredibly sloppy, with little regard for scientific procedure or knowledge of how the science works, and was contracted to and performed by an organization known for coming up with whatever results the person paying wants.
Absolute affront to justice and science.
