Deflation - Doh!

Nice stab RD.

Do me a favor and read the first page of this thread and tell me again.

You are the man RD.

If you hadn't included your own little sarcastic stab in your response, about me being a smart guy, which I see that your guilty conscious caused you to edit of your original response, I might not have responded in the manner in which I did.

LOL, I actually edited it because I thought Futureite was the person who stated that and once I realized it was you, I changed it and re worded it to question your premise comparing tires to footballs.

I still find it funny how you think you have added more to this thread than I have.

Well, sweet. At least there is one person ^^ on record now who admits they alter their response when they are responding to me as opposed to just posting their true opinion. I always knew that was the case, so thanks for admitting it .

I just hope for a CLEAN FAIR game this weekend and would like to see some sort of accountability of the league and the pat's org. GO HAWKS!!!

DR, all I am asking is that if you want to say I'm wrong about something, don't just say I'm wrong then sarcastically laugh at me. Show me where I am wrong. I don't think I said anything inflammatory that might have provoked such a sarcastic response. If I did, then I sincerely apologize. I have no interest in trash talking, especially with a fellow 12.

Thousands that have weighed in on this subject have used car tires as a comparison to footballs. I am hardly alone. Not many of us have a couple dozen footballs sitting around the house that we have to maintain, but we all have pneumatic tires we're familiar with, thus the analogy. Both tires and footballs are expandable, air tight containers and the behavior of the gasses they hold should react similarly. You mentioned the differences in weight that they support. That's a valid point, one that I tried to address but that you insisted on laughing at. I am not a scientist but I do have over 35 years experience in an industry that uses pneumatics in a variety of different applications so I do have something to bring to the discussion. Even so, I could easily be wrong. But when I'm wrong, I want to be shown where I am wrong so that I may learn something from it. I've never taken kindly to mockery.

Really cleans up the place don't it?

Here's an article from Cincinnati that discusses Benjarvis Green-Ellis and how he never fumbled while in NE, but has done so a fair amount since getting to Cincy.
It shows some stats (for those who believe in them) showing how little NE has fumbled since the QBs have been allowed to prepare their footballs.
