DeflateGate: NFL Officials Admit History of Football Air Leakage

One of the NFL's top officiating executives admit that there has been a history of air leaking out of footballs.

This is getting to a point where every release of new information surrounding DeflateGate shows how much of hatchet job this investigation actually was.

First, it was the recollection that Chris Mortensen told WEEI that multiple sources confirmed his initial false report that 11 of 12 footballs were underinflated by 2 PSI. This implies a calculated front from the league to portray the Patriots in a certain fashion with the media.
