Wow he lied? OMG, Hillary lied, Bill lied, Obama lied, Sharpton lied, Elizabeth Warren lied, Debbie Wasserman Schultz lied, Pete Rozelle lied, Goodell lied, Adrian Petersen lied, Ray Rice lied, Hernandez lied, Kobe Bryant lied. Of all those people, where do you rank his lie?
Petersen lied? That man was suspended for a season...the same shold be done to Brady. THEY CHEATED!
Yes at first he denied the charges he beat his four year old, which is worse, beating a four year old or lying about the air pressure in a ball? You tell me. What is worse, lying about beating your wife or lying about the air pressure in a ball? Lying about raping a girl or lying about the air pressure in a ball? Lying about a drug problem or lying about the air pressure in a ball.
So you think beating a four year old is the same as deflating a football a pound?
Think context of transgression.
So what is the penalty, you tell me.
I have no idea, he has already paid some of the price for lying and noncooperation, his reputation has taken a hit, his legacy is diminished,. What will the NFL do?
According to Bill Polian:
"All you can do is point to the precedent for integrity of the game violations," Hall of Fame former general manager Bill Polian, a member of the competition committee for 19 years, told USA TODAY Sports. "(Team president) Rich McKay with the Falcons had no knowledge of any involvement with (pumped-in artificial crowd noise into the Georgia Dome). Yet he was still suspended (from the competition committee), and they lost a draft pick.
"The (New Orleans Saints coach) Sean Payton (year-long) Bountygate suspension. And the ... suspension (four games for general manager Ray Farmer for illegally texting to the sideline) in the Browns' case. In two of the three cases, there was complete cooperation.
"In this case, there's some hint of non-cooperation. And it is a serious violation. It's been a long-standing principle in the league that the closer you get to the white line, the more serious the violation is. And this is one that is clearly between the white lines."
What s next for Tom Brady NFL precedent suggests harsh discipline says Bill Polian
