(Note from the editor: As a reminder to fans, there is no reason to get mad about this, let’s let the investigation unfold and let the NFL take care of this problem that has befallen them.) And on to Jimmy’s opinion:
If you want to be the best at a certain sport there usually is a bunch of things you need to do such as train and practice extremely hard, study one’s opponent, have mental toughness, keep one’s body in top physical form, and have an obsessive desire to win. Two of the best athletes to ever play their respective sports epitomized all of these traits to an unfathomable degree; Michael Jordan and Tom Brady. However, sometimes the obsessive desire to win can make a person do crazy things, which leads us to the pending predicament that Tom Brady, Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots now find themselves in.
Unless you have been living under a rock, every Free Bookie Software fan and their mother has heard about the latest cheating scandal by the New England Patriots. We may never know who actually deflated the balls or who authorized it, but we do know that it was done, and now the NFL needs to decide how they are going to handle this new blemish on the NFL’s integrity.
My opinion is that Tom Brady clearly knew that the balls were deflated. He has openly stated that he likes his balls a certain way, and that is at the lowest spectrum of the leagues minimum of 12.5 PSI. It obviously makes sense because when the ball is softer it becomes easier to grip for throwing, catching, and handling the ball, especially when it is cold, raining, or snowing. It has also been highly documented that Brady is one of the most competitive players to ever play the game, and at the end of the day, all he cares about is winning. So based on his preference for how he likes his footballs, and based on his competitive nature of doing whatever it takes to win, this scandal has a lot of weight in being legitimate.
Yes, Brady is one of the best QB’s to ever play the game but let’s not forget that he has not won a Super Bowl since 2005, which is a decade ago, and in sports that are like dog years. In addition, in his last two Super Bowl trips his team was the odds on favorite to win but still lost both times to the New York Giants. Lets also not forget that Brady is no spring chicken either, and his football days are quickly fading with each new season. So why wouldn’t an aging superstar, who is looking for another chance to be crowned the champ, and who is obsessed with winning not cross the line, and try to give himself and his team an extra advantage?
Brady handles the ball on every offensive play of the game for the Patriots, so to hear him in his press conference said he did not notice anything wrong with the balls just seems ludicrous. The NFL may not be able to prove that Brady or Bellichick had a hand in deflating 11 of the 12 footballs, but the bottom line is the Patriots organization tampered with the balls, which means they blatantly broke the rules, so now the NFL must show some backbone and set forth a proper punishment. The obvious issue is that next week is not some ordinary regular-season game, so either the NFL is going to lay down the hammer and suspend Brady and/or Bellichick or they are going to shirk from their immediate responsibility to the fans and wait until after the Super Bowl to reveal their judgment, either decision is going to have dire consequences.
This is not the first time that a Patriots led the team by Bellichick and Brady was involved in a scandal involving breaking the rules set by the NFL, and who knows what other small rules that the Patriots have broken over this century. The old saying goes “once a cheater, always a cheater,” and if the NFL does not finally do something to make an example on these repeat offenders, then why should the fans have faith in the league and the integrity of the game? My vote is to suspend Brady and Bellichick for at least the Super Bowl, and even next season. I would also strongly consider banishing them from the game, the same way Pete Rose was banished from baseball. That would send shock waves throughout the NFL and show that the NFL is not willing to compromise the integrity of the game for anyone, not even for Hall of Fame-caliber quarterbacks and coaches.
