For a week now we have been going back and forth over who was responsible for #DeflateGate and now we may have someone to blame. NFL is investigating if the game balls were tested, approved and then had air taking out of them. According to Larrybrownsports.com and Boston’s sports radio show, 98.5 The Sports Hubs Toucher and Rich Show, the refs approved Pats under inflated balls.
These reports conflict current reports by NFL stating that the New England Patriots’ ball boy was hidden away in bathroom, with game balls, for 90 seconds suggesting that something shaky could have taken place. Unless the NFL can provide documents proving that the officials stuck the needle in each ball and measured the PSI pressure, the NFL may have a problem on their hands.
The NFL is not expected to hand out sanctions until after the Super Bowl.
