Disclaimer: I dont give a shit about pro football. But as a science teacher, I couldnt help but be intrigued by this past weeks frenzy over deflate-gate; I discussed the situation with one my classes (8th grade) and they immediately made the connection between temperature & air pressure. So, if a bunch of 13-year-olds can explain why the footballs may have felt soft, why did it take a week for a bunch of grownups to figure it out? And watching Brady say he doesnt think hes a cheater, didnt exactly improve his credibility. Sadly, this whole episode underscores the lack of honesty and forthrightness in modern society. Instead of getting to the bottom of the issue, we dance around it. Instead of promising to find the truth, we scapegoat. But, as the song goes, money changes everything...
