RE: OT: Deflategate
Well, it looks like the Patriots are not going to fight the league over the sanctions in an apparent attempt to lessen the penalites ascribed to their starting quarterback. This is an ironic twist to the spirit of team sports; usually its the individual who sacrifices for the betterment of the team, here we have the team sacrificing to the individual.

It's a bizzaro world up there in Patriot land.

Kraft chose the NFL's best interest over his team's.

He's a corporate team player, unwilling to buck the NFL.
