Turning on ESPN or sports talk radio is impossible right now. Never have I ever remembered hating a story as much as I hate Deflategate. Ray Rice beating the shit out of his fiancee was at least interesting. This is less than a non-story. It's common knowledge that quarterbacks like throwing an under-inflated ball more than an over-inflated ball. It's also common knowledge that QBs alter these balls to their specifications, since they have whined about this in the past in order to get the current lax rules on the books. Even my moral compass, Matt Barkley, got caught doing this at USC. It's also common knowledge that nobody talks, everybody walks. Listening to Jerome Bettis and Mark Brunell yesterday was a fucking joke. Brunell fucking CRIED. They fully expected Belichick and Brady to confess and beg for forgiveness. How do these space cadet commentators keep their jobs? Do you really expect me to listen to these dumbfucks when they obviously don't know how the world works? This story might possibly be the biggest non-event in the history of non-events. People like Michael Wilbon calling for Belichick's firing are idiotic. I originally thought the Patriots would lose a draft pick, but now I'm not even sure they will get a wrist slap. Either way, I would rather do this all weekend than have to listen to one more millisecond of this shit.
That said, the entire country believing the Patriots are cheaters has got to sting a bit. #Asterisk
