“Deflate-Gate”: Honestly Guys Enough is Enough! – NFL SHOCKING NEWS

NFLheaderBy Dave “Mythical” Siderski

I’m going to veer off my usual topic of boxing to address a soap opera in the sports world which I’ve really had enough of. On today’s episode of as the stomach turns! The NFL and NFLPA are reportedly in talks to reach a compromise on Tom Brady’s suspension. However, according to an ESPN report today, it is unlikely the sides will reach a settlement. OK, now we go to court, like the American justice system doesn’t have enough to deal with! What’s next? Maybe a congressional hearing with Dennis Fung and Henry Lee as guest witnesses?

Honestly, six months of talk, discussion, and speculation among grown men about deflated “foot” balls is more than enough! This is not to mention the millions of dollars that have been wasted on the investigation over the course of the past several months! It’s time to put an end to this nonsense once and for all!

Tom: Yes, the Wells report has more holes in it than a hobo has in his underwear. The case against you is sketchy at best. That said, I do believe it is “more likely than not” that the “footballs” were tampered with on that January 18th Foxboro evening more than six months ago. If so, I also believe it is “more likely than not” that you knew something about this. Yes, the NFL hasn’t proved its case, but no, I don’t think you’re entirely squeaky clean in this either. In the end, I don’t think a one or two game suspension has a major impact on the upcoming Patriots season and it has no effect on your legacy. Deflated “Footballs” or not, the Patriots won that game 45-7. Tom, put an end to this mess, its only hurting your reputation and distracting from the upcoming football season.

Roger: Seriously, dude it’s time for you to step down as NFL commissioner. Over the course of your tenure, you’ve ruled with an iron fist while, at the same time, failing to accept responsibility for your own failures and shortcomings. This most recent “deflate-gate” investigation is just the latest blunder that’s occurred under your watch added to:

*The Ray Rice fiasco which you were more than willing to sweep under the rug until a certain TMZ video came out.

*Labor disputes with the players in 2011 and referees in 2012. Instead of being the voice of cooperation and compromise, you were a lightning rod and a divisive force in both instances.

*You were also complicit in the NFL’s longstanding cover up of the severity of concussion issues before changing your tune in the face of public pressure.

Throughout your tenure, you’ve consistently demonstrated that you’re not interested in doing the `right thing’ but rather only that which is politically expedient and preserves your power. The emperor wears no clothes. Give it up and do the right thing! A one or two game suspension for Brady is the best solution for all concerned.

Enough is enough! Let’s put an end to this mess and move on to the upcoming season!
