[QUOTE]For a football to drop from 12.5 psi to 10.5 psi, the temperature would have to drop from 72° to -13°.[/QUOTE] Temp change wasn't quite that excessive.
I'm a Pats fan but it's pretty fishy that only one ball was properly inflated. I hope they don't get disqualified, they anhilated the Colts in the regular season anyways.
Most sports critics, pats fan or not, are agreeing that this thing is silly. Apparently MOST teams do this, but they are just focusing on the Pats because they are winning. Same thing with Spygate, most teams do that shit, you just don't get caught. So really you should judge all of NFL before the pats

I'd say the only part of the investigation that is ongoing is figuring out who in the organization did it. They've found the Patriots balls were underinflated, they've also found the Colts balls were regulation.
