Why is giving the officials an under inflated ball and hoping it passes inspection, any worse than Aaron Rodgers admission of giving an over inflated ball, and hoping it passed inspection?

There definitely is a legitimate possibility that somehow by mistake, the way the balls were blown up, caused them to to deflate. Or where they were blown up caused it. I'm not a scientist.
Why am I bashing Bellicheck, before there's proof he did it?
Because the heartless moralless media is bashing him?
Shame on me.

(Obviously as a repeat offender, I believe there is a good chance that Bellichek was involved, and it was intentional)

I don't think כך עונשו של בדאי שאפילו אמר אמת אין שומעין לו means that it is correct to assume as a fact, that someone who did something wrong, repeated himself.

Actually I am serious. You think he wants to play different games with differently inflated balls?
Definitely. in bad weather he needs to  grip better

That maybe would be a possibly if Brady's press conference wasn't rife with inconsistencies and statements that are really hard to believe at best

I don't buy it.  When you play the big game, you want everything to be exactly the way you are used to.  Even if it is objectively better, it isn't what he's used to.

Who said that's not what he's used to using in bad weather?
Did you really believe he wasn't lying in that press conference?

And nobody EVER noticed? And he has some trick to access the balls EVERY game?

Yes, I really believe he wasn't lying that press conference. The more I think about this one, the more likely it seems that it's a frame.

He doesn't need a trick to access the balls. They are under team control after being inspected

I've seen conflicting information on that. 

In all events, I still don't believe that nobody would have ever noticed if he was doing this every single game.

And why 11 out of 12? You think he wants to not know when he's getting a ball which one its going to be? Or did they just forget to deflate one before the finals game?

I heard that all 12 were under inflated, just 11 were more than 2 psi under

So he doesn't care if they aren't all inflated the same amount? Or they just haphazardly pull out a bit of air and however much it is it is.

I don't think you need to be prepared for how under inflated it will be. It just provides better grip

I dunno. It would seem to me that better grip is also something you'd want to be accustomed to. It affects how the ball leaves your hand.

And are all the players in on this, or do they not know what to expect when they catch it?

My guess is he pushed the envelope a little more than he usually does either by doing it to more balls out deflating then a little more because of the importance of the game

I just don't buy that he would want a ball that feels different than the other balls he is using in ohter games or in this game.  Even if it has better grip.  That better grip will make him mess up his throws since it leaves your hand differently

Just heard a caller mention about BenJarvis Green-Ellis, who never fumbled in his Patriot career,  who then went to Cincinnati and fumbled quite often...  As a Patriot fan this is the first thing I heard that got me worried

relly like to watch Brady play, truly one of the greats, if not the greatest today but.....

I simply dont believe a word he or Belichick say ever. Certainly not in this case. The QB dictates exactly how he wants the balls. He would NEVER accept getting balls that dont feel right to him.

Really? He NEVER fumbled as a patriot?
