New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft unloaded on the NFL on Wednesday in the wake of Tom Brady’s four-game suspension being upheld. One of Kraft’s main sticking points was that the NFL has planted false information and never bothered to correct it.
When the Deflategate scandal first erupted back in January, a report from ESPN’s Chris Mortensen indicated that 11 of the 12 balls used by the Patriots during the AFC Championship Game were underinflated by two pounds. Ted Wells, who was hired by the NFL, later determined that only one ball was two pounds under, and that was after accounting for the Ideal Gas Law.
