Clockwork Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I'm worried this is going to drag on how with his lawsuit. Why not just be a man, take the suspension, and apologize? What a B word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 He will now sue, his lawyers will drag the legal process out for years, and he will retire without ever having missed a single game. Damn you Russell Wilson.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 That paragraph about directing the destruction of his phone is the "smoking gun" so many have been looking for. Makes all the difference in the world with respect to public perception of the suspension. Saying "I didn't do it" is one thing. Saying "destroy the evidence -- but I didn't do it" is another. Eff you, Brady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 Rand Getlin @Rand_Getlin 9s9 seconds ago From decision: Brady gave his old cellphone to his assistant to be destroyed on or about the day he met with Ted Wells to be questioned. They can still recover the texts... They need a subpoena to get the records, though, correct? So I assume that they can and will recover them if he does go to court.

TheFunPolice Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 He will forever be known as a cheater. If it weren't for one freaking STUPID playcall he would have had his heart torn out in the Super Bowl AGAIN, been 3-3, AND has his legacy destroyed all in one year. But I guess we can't be greedy.

Kelly the Dog Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 We know in a court proceeding that they can recover the texts. But we now also know that he didn't want anyone to see them. it's inarguable. So no way if he going to contest the investigation. He's a cheater and a liar and worse than we even thought, as a lot of us have been saying all along. I don't know how anyone can defend that in any way.

Depends if they are true "text messages" (SMS) or if they are Apple iMessages. If the latter, I think they're gone. Anybody know if Brady used an iPhone?

YoloinOhio Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 Mike Garafolo @MikeGarafolo 3m3 minutes ago Not surprising a huge celebrity would destroy his phone. Problem for Goodell was timing: On or around day of interview w/ Wells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloWings Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 This is just the beginning.... A friend suggested that this will play out over the course of the season, go through the courts, and by Week 14, the NFL will win the lawsuit and Brady's suspension will be upheld. Thus, he'll miss the last 4 games of the regular season - when the Patriots* will need him to cheat/win a few games to either make the playoffs or for playoff positioning.

ChanOverChin Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Brady cheated, did what a good cheater would do by destroying his phone. He got off easy with only four games if you ask me.

Talley56 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 (edited) If this does go to court, how long would it take? Wouldn't it take over a month thus go into the season any way? Or, he gets the ruling in his favor and does get the games back, would it all be settled in time for 9/10? This is just the beginning....
