Title: Rumors about rumors.......
Post by: Ralph Damren on February 12, 2015, 08:23:10 AM: Deflate-gate Charter II :
From "confidential street sources :-X" , I've heard the following rumor(s)...

That 11 out 12 footballs tested at halftime were deflated (we all knew that yEs: yEs: yEs:).
10 of the 11 deflated balls were between 12.0 PSI and 12.49 PSI (many now know that yEs: yEs: :o).
Mother Nature + frozen tundra can cause that (all New Englanders know that yEs:).
The one REALLY deflated football was the ball kidnapped by the Baby Horse defender after a Brady pick :!
What did the Baby Horses (Colts) do with that there football for the remainder of the first half :o ??? ::) 8] >:( :( :!# >:D >:D >:D nAnA??????

Just something to ponder,guys, while we await the release of the new NFHS rules......

I believe the Red Sox equipment truck is still leaving Fenway today. Similar to Ground Hog day, if it has snow chains on, it indicates 6 more weeks of Winter...... tiphat:

Wonder if they've got snow chains on...

I have a feeling that Wrigley Field (your fav) probably looks similar. yEs: I'm sure the equipment truck had chains on :( :'(, but they'll need to come off after crossing Mason-Dixon. Those of the South haven't allowed those of the North to tear up their roads since Gen. Sherman's march to the sea.

My wife ran off with my best friend ("woof!") and I sure do miss him. Now they're ice-bound in Clarksville, TN. Thankfully, the Westminster Kennel Club show is on tonight!

Appreciated, Ralph. Fortunately, I have a job that I can work from home when necessary due to weather or other issues. Too bad I can't work football games from home when the rain comes down to hard using a "Refbot".
