Back in May NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell suspended New England Patriots Quarterback Tom Brady for 4 games. Roger Goodell felt that Tom Brady was in connection with the footballs being deflated in the AFC Championship this past January against the Indianapolis Colts. Of course Tom Brady and the New England Patriots front office was not in favor and appealed Roger Goodell 4 game suspension. Tom Brady continuously said he had nothing to do with deflategate scandal. However, we all know quarterbacks are usually the first one to get the feel of the balls before the game. Tom Brady definitely knew something was different about the football but still chose not to say anything.
Next red flag that should of went up to this judge that overturned Tom Brady 4 game suspension was Tom Brady destroyed his phone. Brady destroyed his phone when he was suppose to meet with Ted Wells an attorney hired by the NFL to investigate the deflategate case. No one in their right mind destroys their phone unless they have something to hide. Clearly Tom Brady felt guilty about something or he wouldn't have destroyed the phone especially knowing that Ted Wells wanted to see that phone to go through Brady's text messages to see if any foul play went on. But we will never know what went on since Tom Brady destroyed his phone.
Judge Berman overturned Tom Brady's 4 game suspension which makes him eligible to play Week 1 of the regular season against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Judge Berman reason for overturning Tom Brady's suspension was no player should be penalized for being generally aware. Also he said, " That the NFL had no evidence that Brady had anything to do with the deflategate scandal". This was a big win for the National Football League Players Association. But, Roger Goodell quickly said he will appeal the decision made by Judge Berman so we will see what happens next.
