NEW YORK (AP) -- The NFL suspended Super Bowl MVP Tom Brady for the first four games on Monday for his role in a scheme to deflate footballs used in the AFC title game. The league also fined the Patriots $1 million and took away two draft picks, including next years' first-round choice.
The NFL also indefinitely suspended the two equipment staffers who carried out the plan, including one who called himself "The Deflator."

The league cited the integrity of the game in handing down the punishment five days after a report said Brady "was at least generally aware" of plans by two Patriots employees to prepare the balls to his liking, below the league-mandated minimum of 12.5 pounds per square inch.

On the afternoon sports radio show they reviewed Brady's home versus away stats. When your the visiting team you don't get to "touch the balls" lol... And Brady actually had slightly better stats in away games versus home games.. So any advantage he thought he was getting was purely in his head... I know sports people are very superstitious but geeze....

that could be the case but there are other factors to consider. some players play with a chip on their shoulder when they're in the opponent's house, maybe his receivers play a bit tougher for away games? Foxborough is an open stadium with inclement weather, maybe Brady plays better when he's down in sunny Miami or under the Cowboy's roof.

or maybe 2 psi of ball pressure (giggity) just doesn't have much of an effect. either way it's against the rules and i'm glad some form of punishment was handed down.
