Listening live on the pregame radio Jonathan Kraft just said that the NFL twisted their arms into firing the two equipment guys and that they will now persue how to reinstate them.

Yeah its completely unbelievable that the organization that had a literal modern day witch hunt would call for two people to be fired for the transgression that it invented.

Those two people still deflated the balls which broke the rules. The ruling didn't exonerate Tom Brady and the equipment employees from using deflated balls.

It just stated that the NFL commissioner overstepped his powers when suspending Tom Brady.

Did you read the judgement? This judge was legally obligated to only focus on the process but he still went out of his way both during the hearings and in his result that he does not believe the NFL had any real proof regarding the facts of the case, even using scare quotes around "independent investigation" when describing the process of evidence being found

I just want to point out that in the League of Posts he drafted Garroppolo and then dropped him 6 hours ago. He did not keep the faith.

also just dropping in (and bolding) a paragraph of the wells report saying there was not scientific proof the balls even were deflated for, uh, reasons I still don't quite get

I read the judgement during lunch break and I didn't remember reading anything that exonerated Tom Brady?? Link or post the part? I'm honestly curious, I'm on my mobile phone at work so I can't at the moment.

Did you miss that 2/3rds of the ruling was about how the process that they used to "convict" Brady was fundamentally unfair?

I mean you need to put on a real kangaroo court in order to get arbitration thrown out on that basis.

Nothing the judge gave really exonerated Tom no, the evidence is still the evidence. Unless you believe there is some massive conspiracy against Tom for some reason.

The Hot Coffee case was an example of tort law working correctly and then being spun as a reason to give a corporation freedom from responsibility from being held responsible, much like when the NFL leaked lies about Deflategate to frame Tom Brady

Thread title should refer to the report as the "Pash/Wells Report" pls, per The Honorable Judge Berman.


Also, the Pash/Wells report relied on "buy-a-study" company exponent (http://www.patspulpit.com/2015/9/1/9227373/exponent-doctored-their-figures-to-smear-brady-and-the-patriots), because obviously they couldn't back down once the ball got rolling. Just to mention one issue with the report/study - if the head ref is to be believed, then the gauges are flipped around in the exponent study, and the pats and colts balls would have measured about the same. They believed him on everything else, but somehow his memory must be wrong as to which gauge he used on which set of balls.
