Per NY Dailey News: Tom Brady to be suspended!!

[CC_Lemming]

And now all the talk out of NFL insiders is Brady's appeal is a lock and he will play week one.

The report is flimsy and basing punishments off of it was nothing more than a PR stunt to distract people from last years domestic assault and drug outbreak. It worked, and now the dominating story will be Tom Brady and the Patriots appealing and getting their punishments over turned.

That is a Patriots fan concocted conspiracy if I've ever seen one. I agree about the flimsiness of the report but one doesn't need to assign ulterior motives to the NFL to see why the investigation was bungled. It additionally makes no sense for the NFL to vilify one of its golden boys just to distract others from its sordid recent past. Both events hurt the image of the NFL. A much more likely rationale for the whole scandal: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/05/13/a-theory-on-how-deflategate-initially-unfolded/
