With all the deflategate hubbub this week, one interesting thing sticks out: Why haven't other NFL quarterbacks weighed in on the controversy? Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning was asked about it on a recent trip to Indianapolis. What he said left much to be desired.
I'll be honest, folks, the New England reaction to deflate-gate has been kind of gross. Early last week Tom Brady's agent spit plenty of venom and claimed that there was an NFL sponsored sting operation to bring Brady down. There were claims that the Ravens and Colts had it in for the Pats, claims that the investigation wasn't thorough enough (even though Brady refused to exonerate himself by participating), and claims that the independent investigation wasn't 'independent' enough since the NFL paid to have it conducted (you know, because if it were truly independent the NBA, UFC, or AARP would have done it).
