I really feel I must live on the planet Zork, as I had to Google the two names to see what you were taking about. Now that I know I'm liking Zork-sorry not a fan of the leagues.

FREE AT LAST, FREE AT LAST...THANK GOD ALMIGHTY.... TOM BRADY IS FREE AT LAST!!!

Ok all you Patriot haters... bring it!

Yeah, not a Patriots fan ... but my boys had a problem with Mr. Facist a couple of years back (New Orleans Saints). Wish they had done what Tom Brady did.

BTW, did you see the sketch of Goodell's expression at the time of the verdict? Priceless!!!

"Hmmm... you mean I ain't god?"

You & me Both , (brady, Patriot, freedom) I almost moved this to Politics (deletion actually).
all I knew was it had noting to do with a General Discussion of TreasureNet, Our Members, or
the Hobby of Treasure Hunting.

I googled "TOM BRADY" after reading your post & went by that.
hope I'm correct on it's proper location.

Had no clue there was a "football" forum.... so thanks.

So I looked for it... found "sports", clicked on it, and found a bevy of sub-forums of all different sports....awesome!

Hi Folks; Brady is FREE. !! and Goodell has been shown for the pompous idiot he is. Every single Punishment he has handed down has been VACATED due to a lack of proper jurisprudence. You can bet Tom Brady will be Head Hunting in this weeks game for sure. It should be a blow out. PEACE:RONB

Well Dave.... Can't argue with ya. I've not a leg to stand on. I'm a huge football / Patriots' fan also! But on the flip-side it doesn't mean "someone" did or "someone" requested the footballs pressure to be lowered some...? Do I think it made a hill of difference..... NO? If so... If it did ... only to Tom Brady. It all depends on the mentally of the QB, temp, field condition's and the frame of mind of the QB @ that moment. At that level of excellence I can appreciate the difference whether it's a "factor or not" in the laymen's mind(s). This statement meaning to the pro.... "If you think it does.... it does." But with no "proof" this happened.... then it didn't, period.

Outside football example... I shot pro-archery in the early 90's. Easton arrow's came out with a high quality hunting arrow labeled a XX-75 2512. Very large diameter arrow's (LARGE). I saw them and thought... damn wouldn't it be "cool" to make these arrows fly accurately out of my low poundage target bow? These arrows were made for 65+ lb. hunting bows. I was shooting then a state of the art target bow at 36 lbs. (Hoyt, Pro-Vantage) EVERYBODY said "you'll never make it happen Brad". I found a way. Cut the arrows 4"-6" long, add a lot of weight out front (175+ grain tips) and reduce the spline weight through this methodology. The accuracy came with it... BUT ONLY IF THE ARCHER WAS CAPAPBLE (high level) of executing a "perfect shot". This was very hard to do. SO... Why do this unorthodox methodology...? Because the arrow shaft was TWICE the diameter of the "called" for shaft. This made the bulls-eye a LOT LARGER because if the arrow shaft "touched" the line it was in.

Long story short from here... I went to the Las Vegas open in 93' shooting in the pro unlimited bracket. Only the top 50 shooters world wide make the finals after 2 days of shooting. I came in tied @ #7. Of those 50 shooters who made it 5 were shooting XX75 2512's. I ended up 31st. Many people were angry that 5 folks within the finals in 93' found a way to make the bulls-eye larger. In 94 I qualified #2 in the pro-division. About 15-20 folks who shot my setup made the finals now. I ended up again at 31st. Point being.... I knew how to shoot with the best in the world but didn't know how to "win" yet. But many folks were catching up quickly though it was hard to do and appreciate.

Full circle now.... If Tom Brady "thought" 1-3 lbs. within the footballs made a difference then it does. Did he arrange for this to happen...? Is it easier to catch a "underinflated" football...? hell yes! To throw it.... I don't know. But unless other world class QB's step up and say... Yep, it makes a difference then it never happened. The football world just needs to LET IT GO or state the difference it made to Brady.

My point here is that the slightest change can make a huge difference within a pro experienced setting mentally, actuality and/or physically.... If you think it makes a difference... IT DOES!

Played a part or not, he knew bulls were under inflated and continued to play with out protesting to coach...They should have ruled the game a New England forfeit..

Patriots scored 14 points with "under-inflated" balls.... 28 points with the others....

So glad they fixed that problem for us....

Fact of the matter is, a precedent was set earlier with equipment issues.... the Panthers were told to knock it off....and nothing ever happened. Because its the Panthers, no one cares...but because its the Pats, and we have been more or less owning the league for a dozen years, they hate us cuz they aint us...

Superbowl 50.... Goodell handing Brady the Lombardi trophy? wouldn't that be delicious!

I thought they were moving the team to LA? :laughing7:
I guess it's great if you are a Patriots fan. I think the NFL wasted way... WAY to much time on it either way.
Last years Superbowl victory.....was the result of the Seahawks executing one of thee dumbest plays that I have ever seen!:BangHead:
