If you don't think every single QB that ever played has looked at his equipment manager and either said "it's a little hard, can you take some out" or "it's too soft can you put more in" (cough cough Aaron Rodgers) then you are naive.

If you think a text message saying "Brady is obsessing over the balls, he wants them softer, the refs had it at 16 PSI" is tantamount to Brady saying "I know the limit is 12.5 but screw the rules" then I don't know what to tell you.

If you actually buy into the media bs that a QB requesting his footballs be a bit softer is some diabolical, devious, character defining thing...then you must sit on the edge of your couch sweating and dabbing your forehead while watching ESPN. Because you must bite on every over blown hyperbole that they throw out hook line and sinker. This is the single biggest non story I have EVER seen.

On top of that after all of that and four months of wasting money and time on this the best they can come up with is "more probable than not" and "likely was generally aware". How does anyone buy into this bs? How does anyone actually feed into it and CARE about the dumbest "controversy" I can remember in my lifetime of watching sports? Debating legacy and if they should have their SB stripped? From a game they won 45-7......this whole thing is absolutely unbelievable to me.

PS: Side note. Page 100 of the report states that 3 out of 4 of the Colts balls that were tested were under 12.5 PSI. MINOR detail the media is ignoring there.
