ESPN reported last night that a league investigation has discovered that 11 of the Patriots 12 footballs used in their whupping of the Colts were underinflated, and by a significant margin: two pounds per square inch below the acceptable 12.5-13.5 psi range. The NFL, per Chris Mortensens source, is disappointed ... angry ... distraught, not because there might be shenanigans going on here—no one should be shocked at that—but because the league now has to deal with this bullshit. (Distraught! This is the best, dumbest scandal.) The more context that emerges, the more it feels like messing with footballs is akin to pitchers doctoring baseballs: everybody does it, and nobody looks too closely until an opponent publicly complains. Aaron Rodgers says he likes his balls overinflated. Brad Johnson says that before the Super Bowl, he paid some guys $7,500 to illegally rough up 100 game balls. deadspin/the-patriots-ballghazi-scandal-cannot-be-overblown-enou-1680853191
