Perhaps also disbelief it was just two weeks ago that this earthquake hit nepal, killing 8,000 people. The devastation is still clear. They were only just beginning to rebuild. This morning, those scenes playing out again. Listen to this heavy breathing. This is what a luckdy escape sounds like. At the airport, they bustle not for their flights but for safety on the tarmac. At 12 35 local time a 7. 3 struck close to mt. Everest. After just five minutes, a 5. 6 aftershog. Nen 19 minutes later. Within an hour another two came just minutes apart. Kids are really upset.

Matching the largest fine in nfl history. Also losing two draft picks. The nfl saying monday footballs were intentionally deflated in an attempt to provide a competitive advantage to tom brady.

Saying your actions clearly constitute conduct debt try mental to the integrity of and confidence in the National Football league. His attorney saying overnight, the discipline is ridiculous and has no legitimate basis. Patriots ceo robert kraft main daying there was no tampering with footballs.

There is an elephant in the room. Where . Reporter some saying this punishment is sending a very clear message to the rest of the league. Brady has less than three days to file an appeal which would be heard by Roger Goodell or his designee. The irony is if his full suspension stands, his first game back against the indianapolis colts, the very team that reported the deflated footballs to the nfl. Not going unnoticed. Want to talk more with michael and jesse. A lot of people weighing in. Former players, current players. Did they get it right . Too much . Too little . What to youdo you think, michael . I think theyre going to go above and beyond rather than understate anything. Its hard for me to understand if you didnt definitively say he knew to suspend the player for four game ps. No definitive information in the report saying they knew for sure that they did this. What did you think . I have no problem with how the patriots are being punished. I think tom bradys punishment is too severe. In baseball sammy sosa corked his bat. He got suspended eight games. Thats 5 of the regular season. Tom brady is getting 25 of the regular season without inclus conclusive evidence. You to think the commissioner was send message . Absolutely. With the things that have happened over the course of the last season or so with the nfl, other incidents from Domestic Violence to this now. They want to send a message. If youre in violation of anything that makes this league look bad, youll be punished. Theyre going to protect the integrity of the game above all else. Nobody is exempt. From the get go we were trying to determine what would happen. A suspension, a fine whatever . You both said if something came down he was going the appeal. He is. And he should. She he should. This report left it open for him to appeal when they said the probability that you knew. Not that we know that you knew. They left it open for him the say, hey you have no definitive reason to say i did anything wrong. It was some rogue ball boys. Tom brady, im just the quarterback. I played the game with whatever they gave me. Reading troy vincents letter part of the punishment is because they feel he didnt fully cooperate with the investigation. Didnt give over text messages. They think he lied. A lot of his testimony contradicts the testimony they fwatherred. Don yee didnt think the investigation was unbiased. This will get appealed. They dont believe him. Thats apparent. You were a quarterback in the nfl, can mow not know . Do you not know . Im a defensive lineman. I would rarely touch the football. I would know. So everybody would know in the ball is underinflated. Sfling you would know. A lot of people at home dont know. Both teams dont play with the same footballs. Each offense uses their own footballs. Quarterbacks are so particular. Some like them more deflated some inflated. Equipment staffs every week throughout the week their manipulating the footballs. The kickers get their own ball as well.
