It's been stated that 11 of the 12 balls were at least 2 psi below regulations.

I have no idea what happened, but the reason we're dealing with this is because the NFL's policy on game balls is f'ing stupid. Allowing offenses to supply their own balls is just asking for controversy. Brady is a great QB, regardless of what happened and Belicheck is a great coach...maybe the best of all-time.

Go Hawks though!  ;D

Another good debunking article:

If the rules don't state at what temperature the balls need to be inflated. Put 'em in a 120 degree room, fill 'em, test 'em, wander out like nothing happened.

I can't blame anyone for following the "What Would Smokey Yunick Do" approach. It's how I got tossed from the annual Stirling Engine speed test in college.  [evil]
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

Kinda like lane splitting, it's NOT illegal. [evil]

2) I think that the balls in question were 2 psi below the "maximum" allowable......so that would make them 1 psi below the minimum? Right?

I don't know for sure, but that isn't what the article said. It said at least 2 psi below regulations...which would be 10.5 psi or less.

Well of course there'll be a paid off scapegoat.

Probably the same guy who normally pissed clean for the athletes but took up drugs recently.

I wonder if as big a to do will be made out of the super bowl?

It's one of those fancy new toilets that'll flush a bucket of golf balls. I think Kohler makes it.

New toilets are not capable of flushing a pint of piss without clogging, let alone anything solid..........

I swear, I make the beast with two backsing HATE "low flush" technology.
