personally, they are all wrong, i bet tom, jokingly, may have had a ballboy mess with psi to promote autographs without knowing this was such a big deal. just cause the pats won, they are all cry babies,,,,, this is no more than an innocent fred belitnikoff style mistake, by this logic, the saints should all be in jail. and bountygate sinners and incognito should be expelled permanently......are you telling me tom brady would, if he knew everyone was such a jealous nerd, and this was a serious infraction, would even bother........they say "ignorance of the law is no excuse " but this is as simple as a bryan cox breathe right strip from the 90's, or a longer cleat, or a backwards tape to help catch. how can you know that a bunch of nerds like the media, godell, and a broken economy that needs to sell papers, be so overeacting....since there in no real precedence, the fine should be a 7th round pick, a small fine, and maybe one game.....if that. unknown rules cannot be treated like a murder case, also, we all know what goes on, on the inside, if you are literal with tom with the by the book rules, what about all the b.s. the other teams get away with, the seahawks are the most steroid penalized, i bet 75% or more of the league is doing something, whether it be smokin, tokin, or buying bull glands from gnc...every pro at this level has a trick up their sleeve. you can jail 85% of the league for more than a brady sin, then why punish brady for the least heinous sin ?  amateur sports is where the real blood and guts are, we do not get paid, and do not enhance through trickery.......
