The thing is that he wasn't lying. Chris Mortenson got the whole thing rolling with that ******** report that 11 of the 12 were severely under inflated when it was only the ball the colts turned in.
Colts obviously let some air outta of that one. There isn't much class behind a franchise with an owner that's snorting prescription medicines
People hate the patriots so much that they don't have the ability to look at everything objectively. Just like the whole spy gate thing. You can record signals but only from the stands ...patriots did it from the sideline

Stop it bruh.
Deflategate was absolutely a joke.
But they were flat out cheating when we talking spygate no ifs ands or buts about it.

People just need to do what most folks do and don't listen to Pats discussion by Pats fans.

This is pretty much what it boils down to.
I'm not a Patriots fan nor a hater and I was blown away how the media constructed that BS known as deflate gate. Anyone without a bias could read between the lines and realize that it was a story to captivate views during the off weeks before the SB was set to take place. I am surprised that Brady didn't sue ESPN for creating the **** storm that they did.
The same applies to Patriot Haters, such as yourself.

Yes the NFL conspired to take down the Patriots, the team they have protected for 10+ years, with one of the owners in the NFL who is closest to Roger Goodell, who they destroyed evidence for, with the most significant star QB of the decade as their scapegoat.
That makes total sense. Forgive me for questioning the conspiracy.

The personal struggles of an owner mean an organization is classless?

exactly....i think what most people forget is that sports=business=every dollar by every means
if you think the NFL is going to throw their biggest team under the bus to be politically correct you are WRONG.
they will do everything in their power to protect their asset/money...only fans and arm chair coaches/owners have this idea that everything is so clean and straight when it comes to professional sports...
lol we don't hear half the **** that these leagues do on the daily to keep away from the public to maintain a good image and SELL SELL SELL

A culture of personal demons is passed down? You are being dense. To call the organization classless isn't wrong and there are reasons you could cite. The one you did is asinine

Of course Bill Simmons is going to be a homer about Boston sports. This shouldn't be an issue anymore.
He's talking and writing like a fan, just one with entertaining opinions, observations and theories. That's who he is.

Mike Francesa says Bill is basically begging to be on his show, so he will have him on in the near future. I can't wait to hear what Bill has to talk about

No soft spot with me, substance abuse issues are personal and I try not to get on players or anyone about them. I was commenting on it being the reason the Colts lack class. I don't see the causality or correlation. That said I shouldn't have said you were being dense, so I do apologize for that

Appreciate it...I know we butt heads a lot but I like good opposing views
I never take it personal
but Irsay has had it out for the Patriots for over a decade. Think he was the one who led the charge to make PI calls strict after the Patriots manhandled the Colts receivers in the playoffs (think it was 2003)

yea, Bill pleaded on one of the new pods about it being his dream to be on there. He said ESPN always denied him in the past

Simmons took at a shot at SAS too. He also discussed a little about what went on behind the scenes on the Morris podcast.Get yo popcorn ready. Simmons/Whitlock/Cowherd/Patrick need to do a Hit Em Up podcast
