If anything it should mean more to you dude. You should hope Brady and Billicheat go out there and win one by the book so you can tell me to shove it:p
Why do we even have a stupid "bowhunting forum"? Let's all just join a forum about this country and talk nonstop about it. Don't be silly. I wish folks would just R-E-L-A-X.
Draft picks or salary cap restrictions are the only ways to truly punish a team. In this instance I don't think either will happen. Maybe a draft pick since there is a track record.
guess I will continue to play since we can't talk about real issues that affect Americans.. 1 Pound that is how much pressure was out of the balls if they have to be from 11.5 to 12.5, the ball were found to have 10.5. found this interesting read online.. "Cold weather does indeed reduce ball pressure Posted by Mike Florio on January 21, 2015, 11:11 AM EST A thermometer shows minus 8°C in front o Getty Images I’ve dusted off today a long-lost engineering degree from what seems like five lifetimes ago to explain how air pressure drops when the temperature does. The concept is known as the ideal gas law. PV equals nRT. The “P” is pressure. The “T” is temperature. If the “V” (volume) the “n” (amount of gas, in “moles”) and the “R” (the “ideal gas constant,” which is sort of like pi) remain the same, a drop in temperature necessarily results in a drop in pressure. The folks at Sports Science addressed this issue in 2010. A ball exposed to 10-degree temperatures for an hour, the pressure drops from 13.5 PSI to 11 PSI. Of course, that doesn’t fully account for a drop from 12.5 PSI to 10.5 PSI in 51-degree weather for 90 minutes or so. But it proves that, when it’s cold, the pressure inside a football drops. In this specific situation, it could be that some pressure was removed from the balls, and that the 51-degree temperature did the rest. Regardless, when the mercury drops, footballs naturally deflate, at least a little."
Yes and they were not under inflated and the same as checked before the game. So the loss of pressure due to weather theory does not exist.
So now apparently the ravens tipped off the Colts about the underinflated balls. If Roger Goodel thinks the story is going to go away this week, he's very much wrong. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
The weather argument is an intriguing one, but invalid. There have been countless games played over the years outside. Many of them in much colder temps. This has never been an issue where 11 of 12 footballs had to be removed. Not to mention all 12 of Indy's were still good.
Each quaterback likes their ball inflated specifically. Aaron Rogers is quoted in saying he likes his balls over inflated. Could it not be possible Luck likes his balls inflated more the Brady?
Yes it could be possible, but that doesn't excuse the reason that there have been 100's of games before this one in much, much colder temps and this issue has never been brought up. And I haven't read or heard anywhere that they found the Colts footballs to have lost any pressure, and they did check both teams at halftime. I think the weather argument is one of the weaker one for the Patriots.
