Antimatter is ridiculously expensive to make, and it only lasts millionths of a second. There is also the obvious containment issues: electrons and positrons annihilate on contact.theapportioner said:There must be a scientific explanation on how the balls could deflate. Maybe they put antimatter into them.

Tom Brady knows this, which is why he probalby learned to stabilize the field with an inverted ground state Muonic pulse generator.
Also, the 275 GeV that the football pumped out would totally interfere with the Spider Cam, Defensive Signals, and most semiconductor based communications within ~45 miles of the stadium.

There is another problem in that there would be a sizable "event" if Gronk spiked a football with antimatter in it.
In short, it may have just been the external temperature.

Found in one of Ernie's notebooks:
If it's been mentioned already in this epic War and Peace of a thread, I apologize, but the Walsh/Parcells communications cutting thing came up in "A Football Life", the life of Bill Walsh on NFLN. It was about Walsh scripting the first 15 or so plays in a game and then managing to KO communications. 49ers didn't need comm because Montana knew the first 15 plays and just called them in the huddle. The Giants were, OTOH, SOL. The next time the 49ers played the Giants, Parcells said to Walsh before the game if you pull that shit again, I'm turning you in. So, Parcells and Walsh did the wink/wink thing while the Colts went straight to tattling. I highly recommend the new "A Football Life", about Bill Walsh.E5 Yaz said:@SandoESPN parcells says walsh admitted cutting comm as "gamesmanship" in a game...imagine that in today with deflate gate being a story

Marciano490 said:So, apparently there's a weird trial going on in Florida based on pedophile Jeffrey Epstein's past conduct in which Alan Dershowitz is being directly accused of having sex with an underage girl on multiple occasions and Donald Trump and Bill Clinton are directly connect to Mr. Epstein, but I didn't hear about it till just now because it's somehow less important, salacious and intriguing than the psi of the Patriots's's footballs.

You know that thought has crossed my mind in that what if part of Wells' responsibility here as a respected attorney is to investigate what happened fully and then advise the league on how to re-write the rule to close all loopholes.Reggie's Racquet said:Deflategate theory: What if Pats inflated balls in warm environment?

I am reasonably confident that many other organizations/quarterbacks did similar things to their footballs and took advantage of the gray area as well.PeaceSignMoose said:You know that thought has crossed my mind in that what if part of Wells' responsibility here as a respected attorney is to investigate what happened fully and then advise the league on how to re-write the rule to close all loopholes.
Starting to think this is going to end up with everyone realizing that the organization took advantage of another gray area in the rules.
Oh I'm not saying they didn't. But as always, the Patriots did it so it's a huge deal.njnesportsfan said:I am reasonably confident that many other organizations/quarterbacks did similar things to their footballs and took advantage of the gray area as well.

My apologies to the Patriots and to the officials. In looking at the still picture LaFell is off far enough to be considered in backfield

Yesterday on ProFootballTalk I said I might tell players 2 fake injury versus Patriots substitutions. TOTALLY wrong on my part. I apologize!
Ah, I missed that part.njnesportsfan said:Amazon shipping is slow, won't get everything until Tuesday.
If you believe that BB didn't know what happened, then there is no reasonable expectation Kraft knows. Kraft is much too smart to go into bluster mode only to later learn that Stinky the Second Assistant Ballboy thought he would do TB a favor for the Big Game.wiffleballhero said:Either the Patriots are guilty, in which case they should have simply fessed up Monday and claim that they learned it from Peyton and Eli and didn't really know the rule anyway, or they are not guilty and at this point they should be in full on attack mode.
Why not systematically call out all of the haters? Call out the league for the stupidity of all of this and fundamentally call out the whole scandal for what it is: a bunch of loser hot air.
I would love to see Kraft go into a full court press with this but you know it is not happening.
I guess the best we are getting is the veiled knocks on the Colts for being focused on ball pressure.
