league. mookie betts winning the mvp award. and christian yelich winning for his league. he is from thousand oaks, california. he also had to evacuate his home due to the fire. i want to say thank you to the firefighters and first responders. everybody that helped out this past week. the devastation and destruction here is unbelievable. it would have been worse without those guys. those men and women are unbelievable. we owe them a lot. finally, one of the equipment managers for syracuse s basketball team having a rough week. buddy boeheim s jersey was misspelled. this would not be that big a deal, dave, but his dad has been coaching the team since 1976. you think if there is one name
things in the brady suspension, the reason for them is the fact that he didn t cooperate with the investigation, and nobody believes that these two equipment managers acted on their own. i know. without his urging to deflate footballs. so just the fact that the team suspended these two guys is in part an indictment on brady and his role. yeah. where are they going to end up, these two guys, these rosencrantz and guildenstern? are they done? if they re done, how can brady even be partially innocent? your thoughts. i think these guys will come back to the patriots in some form or fashion. they ve been suspended from handling footballs, being a part of that process. but they haven t been fired yet. i think once this all blows over, they ll get roles with the team. but it s a pretty apt title for those guys, rosencrantz and guildenstern. you re working on a football stadium.
in the past players have been punished for not cooperating with investigations, but never to this extent. i guess i like it when people stand up for what their beliefs are, like in boston when they went for capital punishment. if they stick to four he obviously believed in what he did the first time. if he goes to two, he is saying i really didn t belief what i did, but i ll sort of do something. it shows to me a lack of perseverance. let me ask what he might do. here is what i think brady is going to do. i think brady is going to use this as a chance to make himself look better for everybody. he is going do show that he has been autographing footballs for years, autographing piece of paper for years, that he has been giving away souvenirs for years. and the fact that he gave them to the great deflator and the other guy in the locker room is no indication of a quid pro quo. i think he is going to make a shine up to his reputation in the process. i think the two biggest things in th
million bucks to pay. we thought he would get the four games and might petition that and the team gives up two draft picks and that a huge and a million dollar fine. that s not huge. they saved it with not paying him. they came backfiring today. his lawyer? yeah. one of the most notorious and competent in the country and going after them. after the nfl? going after the nfl and defending tom brady. they want it reduced and came out with a 20,000-word rebuttal to say how many of these 230 pages were just inaccurate and wrong that was put together by ted wells. why don t they produce the text messages as the nfl wanted him to do? show it to us. they have an explanation. they said well we have the equipment managers. that should be enough. there s some other highlights to enjoy. another element of this that they brought up looking to knock out of the park is the fact that the ball boy, the equipment manager, took the balls into the
good relationship with equipment managers. usually quarterbacks do have very good relationships with the equipment managers and i m willing to bet that he directed them to take a little bit out here, take a little bit out there. equipment manager or the assistant equipment manager is not going to do that on their own, are you kidding me and for him to come back and say i don t even know these guys names, being smug and arrogant and a slap in the face to the game. mr. mcnally knows his own name and he s out of football. what do you think of that, mr. gregory, the little guy, now is canned? and for the rest of his life he ll no why he did it because it won t do much good because he s finished in football and the other guy is off for four weeks. i think it s a sad result. mcneal, there was directed evidence, he called himself the deflator. i think i do think that tom brady probably had something to do with this okay? i m just saying that in the report given what s in there i
