Even with Ted Olsen he knew he had no case. Feel free to continue discussing his GOAT status, now that he 's basically admitted his guilt and will unequivocally be branded a cheater forever. I'll just sit here and

Dick Rosenthal {l Wrote}:And the 2nd Circuit delivers the kill shot to Brady's legacy. I imagine at this point he will ask the Supremes to hear the matter, but there is no way in hell that will happen although Breyer and Kagan may write a furious dissent when the rest of the Supremes refuse to hear the case.
On a related note, I was talking to the member of a family that owns one of the marquis franchises. This particular member of the family and I worked as law talking guys together and he splits his time between working on some of the family's other business holdings and occasionally working in a business role for the franchise. He told me that the animus towards the Patriots and Brady that resulted in this draconian sentence for a relatively mild offense--if we assume that Brady did in fact have the balls deflated--is the fact that the Pats were caught red handed cheating in some major ways (outside the normal parameters of seeking competitive advantage) and the league and owners chose to look the other way because of the damage it would do to the overall image of the league. Spygate was only a small portion of the spying and cheating that went on. Consequently, there was considerable pressure from the owners to drop the hammer here. Kraft thought he could alleviate the pressure by copping to the cheating, but the owners wanted to see the Patriots hurt on the field and while they were happy to humiliate Kraft, they were going to get Brady one way or the other. In essence, Brady got OJ'ed--hammered with a big punishment for a minor offense because he had skated on the really bad stuff in the past.

Not if Miami knocks off Pittsburgh. How many times in the entire history of the NFL has one team beaten another team 3 times in the same season?

I suppose Dolphins could pull it off against the Steelers, but I'd be surprised.

Miami is 9-2 in their last 11 games, including a convincing win against the Steelers. I'm not saying that they're going to win, but it wouldn't surprise me.
