Troy Aikman: Deflatriots punishment should exceed Saints bounty punishment Posted by Josh Alper on January 22, 2015, 3:12 PM EST Former Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman has weighed in on Deflategate and he thinks that the Deflatriots should be in for a harsh punishment from the NFL. Aikman made an appearance on Sportsradio 1310 The Ticket on Thursday and said he believed that it is “obvious” quarterback Tom SparklePony was involved in deflating the footballs. He also referenced Commissioner Roger Goodell’s punishment of the Saints for running a bounty program that rewarded players for hurting opponents when explaining why he believed the Deflatriots needed more than the “slap on the wrist” Aikman feels they got for videotaping their opponents’ sideline in 2007. “This whole comment by Roger Goodell based on the Saints when Sean Payton got suspended for the year, and he says ‘ignorance is no excuse,’ that’s going to come back to haunt him again,” Aikman said, via the Dallas Morning News. “That haunted him during the whole Ray Rice situation with he, himself, and now it’s going to haunt Roger Goodell in terms of what the punishment is for the New England Deflatriots and Bill Homeless Hoodie. If ignorance is no excuse, and it wasn’t for Sean Payton. …[The Saints] did not give themselves a competitive advantage. Now twice, under Bill Homeless Hoodie and possibly a third time, they’ve cheated and given themselves an advantage. To me, the punishment for the Deflatriots and/or Bill Homeless Hoodie has to be more severe than what the punishment was for the New Orleans Saints.” Payton and General Manager Mickey Loomis were suspended for the entire 2012 season by the league as a result of their bounty findings, assistant coach Joe Vitt was suspended six games, defensive coordinator Gregg Williams was suspended indefinitely, the team was fined $500,000 and the Saints were stripped of second-round picks in 2012 and 2013. profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/01/22/troy-aikman-Deflatriots-punishment-should-exceed-saints-bounty-punishment/Well said, Troy. If I'm Payton, I'm pullin a "you forgot the briefcase!" on Goodell if the Pats only get a slap on the wrist.

If the pats get no punishment, or a slap on the wrist, I might be totally done with the NFL.
That would mean that some teams get preferential treatment. We know the Jets are not one of those teams. Hard enough for the Jets to win a SB, and to have to go up against at least one team twice a year that gets preferential treatment, really puts the Jets at a disadvantage. Got the deck stacked against them. Not impossible to win it all, but highly unlikely.

Also, probably can't dole out any punishment until after the SB. That would affect the Vegas line. Vegas won't allow that.

So Belidick and SparklePony don't know a thing about it....
"If I was a ball boy or member of the equipment staff, I would look over my shoulder for a big-ass bus."

31 teams, owners, fans, ex-players, talk radio, tv, news papers, etc... Are ALL pissed!!!!! The pressure is on Goodall like never before...
But it's BB, TB, Kraft and the Pats, so BB will be fined $25k, suspended 4 pre-season games and they will lose a 7th rounder...
The balls being deflated will continue too...

NFL will not be able to reach a reliable conclusion as to exactly what happened, but will say that the Patriots are responsible for anything that happens to the balls after they pass the official inspection. As a result, the Patriots will be fined the minimum fine of $25,000 because there was no evidence of intentional wrongdoing. The League will then create a new procedure for safeguarding the integrity of balls after they are inspected by the officials, but change the lower end of the inflation range to 10.5 psi.
