DeflateGate: New England Patriots Issue Statement on Tom Brady's Suspension

The New England Patriots are making their feelings known about DeflateGate.

The New England Patriots have released a statement regarding the upheld suspension for quarterback Tom Brady:

"We are extremely disappointed in today's ruling by Commissioner Goodell. We cannot comprehend the league's position in this matter. Most would agree that the penalties levied originally were excessive and unprecedented, especially in light of the fact that the league has no hard evidence of wrongdoing. We continue to unequivocally believe in and support Tom Brady. We also believe that the laws of science continue to underscore the folly of this entire ordeal.
