Do you still want to hang your hat on "scientific proof"? Atmospheric conditions did not, I repeat DID NOT, cause the Patriots footballs to deflate.

Argue with the experts. MIT Physics Prof. Max Tegmark also says a 2PSI drop in his experiments and calculations using natural gas law shows no evidence of wrong doing. His findings are similar to that of Timothy Gay... Experimental Physics Prof at the University of Nebraska. This subject was included in his book "The Physics of Football". Recent experiments by Thomas Healy...graduate student at Carnegie Mellon also confirm the deflation theory.

...and yet these same professors and experts cannot, or IMO will not, explain why only the Patriots balls were deflated. Perhaps because atmospheric conditions were not the reason for deflated balls. I even quoted an expert who dispute Mr. MIT, and other like minded people, yet you keep trotting out the same debunked science.

Evidently you just want to argue for the sake of arguing....so...Ill comment no further.

Well if you're going to assume that environmental conditions caused the balls to be underinflated, how do you explain how only the Patriots footballs were underinflated?

We don't know at what pressure or under what conditions they were inflated to begin with. That is the nexus of the problem. There may well have been some cheating. I have no idea. There is though no evidence to support it. It could be a combination of conditions and the balls being inflated right at the lowest allowed limit. I sited credible sources that say that is possible.

Anyway...I think we have
