The NFL is such GREAT theater and were all part of it. John Harbaugh calls Joe Flacco the best QB in the NFL days before playing the Patriots in a tough playoff matchup. Brady is questioned about it and gets embarrassed. Brady beats Harbaugh and feels redemption. He smiles and quietly whispers to himself, I got him. Harbaugh gets embarrassed and complains in frustration to Belichick-hating media creating Ineligible Gate. Tells the media hes gonna have the NFL look into the Patriots offensive line formations. Brady laughs and tells the media that Harbaugh has to learn the rulebook. Harbaugh gets embarrassed and now angry-calling his buddy Chuck Pagano to tell him to look into the PSI of the balls--a never-before enforced yet somewhat common infraction of the actual NFL Rule Book confirmed by QBs from around the league this week punishable with a measly $25k fine. 1st opportunity to physically check one of the Patriots balls comes at the DQwell Jackson INT just before the end of the 1st half. Pagano asks the head referee to look into the PSI of the Patriots balls at the half. DQwell Jackson-the only Colt to touch the Patriots ball to this point--notices nothing different about the ball at all and has no idea why his INT ball is being taken away. Balls confiscated at the half. Indy sports reporter break Inflate-A-Gate after the game after speaking with an embarrassed Chuck Pagano who suffered the largest-margin AFC Championship loss ever. The Belichick-hating media--along with media who have probably never watched a football game in their lives--and Patriot-hating fan bases from around the league descend upon Foxboro and take to social media at the opportunity to bring up Spy Gate with dramatic mock outrage calling for a disqualification to the Super Bowl, draft picks, and the coachs job---for violating a rule that was about as impactful as the pine tar on George Bretts bat in 1983. Bradys feet held to the fire in the biggest press conference New England has seen since that worthless turd from Russia killed innocent people at the Boston Marathon---all the while making several references to handling all different kinds of balls. Old ones. Soft ones. Slippery ones. Never once cracking a smile. John Harbaugh lays in bed tonight smiling for a moment quietly whispering to himself, I got him.--the smile dissipates as he realizes hes not going to the Super Bowl. Tom Brady goes to bed tonight remembering the week and the hoopla. He smiles quietly whispering to himself, he got me.... Nicely played Harbaugh. Nicely played. Theater. wcvb/sports/colts-jackson-says-he-noticed-nothing-wrong-with-football/30870712?utm_source=Social&utm_medium=FBPAGE&utm_campaign=WCVB%20Channel%205%20Boston%20-%20wcvb5&Content%20Type=Story&linkId=11903911
