Former New England Patriots tackle Matt Light is manning the team’s defensive controls in his retirement. At Rob Ninkovich’s charity ping-pong tournament on Monday night, Light expelled his opinions about Deflategate.
Light’s argument stems from the fact that even if they are found guilty, the Patriots are not the first rule-benders in NFL history. Why the Patriots are catching so much flak from the footballing community is absurd, and can only be chalked up to the reality that they have been the best team in the league since the turn of the century.
Light is using the “ridiculous circus that Roger Goodell and the rest of his little buddies at the league office put together” for charitable purposes.
