That’ll teach the NFL about hiring all those high-priced, big-time experts to support their theory that the Patriots deflated balls.
A 12-Year-old seventh-grader named Ben Goodell (no relation to Roger) — used his science fair to prove that New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady did not deflate footballs.
CBS Boston has more:
Twelve-year-old Ben Goodell, a student at St. Pius V School in Lynn, makes sure to be clear he’s not related to Roger. That’s because Ben is no fan of the commissioner who suspended Patriots quarterback Tom Brady four games, fined the team $1 million and took away two of New England’s draft picks.
“I was kind of upset because I didn’t think it was fair for them to say that Tom Brady was going to be suspended for 4 games,” Ben told WBZ-TV.
Young Ben got an official NFL ball, inflated it to legal size and allowed it to suffer in various conditions for two hours.
“I put it in humidity, cold, snow, wind chill and the same temperature that occurred during DeflateGate,” he explained.
Young Goodell says the ball pressure dropped everytime, thus proving the Patriots were innocent.
