The Deflategate Investigation Report

Some people may say his surrender only confirms his guilt, but they may not be aware of all the facts. By accepting the suspension, Brady is virtually guaranteeing that he will miss the first four games of the 2016-17 season. However, had he used his final appeal, it's possible that the Supreme Court wouldn’t have made a decision until after next season began. If you’re Tom Brady, would you rather miss four games in September when the season is still young, or miss four games in November or December when the Patriots will likely be in the midst of a battle for home field advantage in the

Stowe expresses the terrors of slavery, by giving the reader insight into what life was like as a slave in the south; and through this, it shows how inhumane slavery was. For example, when Uncle

This case opened up more suspicion and also caused an effect on people regarding the hidden information that the NFl

The anti-slavery novel, Uncle Tom’s Cabin, by Harriet Beecher Stowe was written at a time when slavery was a largely common practice among Americans. It not only helped lay the foundation for the Civil War but also contained many themes that publicized the evil of slavery to all people. The book contains themes such as the moral power of women, human right, and many more. The most important theme Stowe attempts to portray to readers is the incompatibility of slavery and Christianity. She makes it very clear that she does not believe slavery and Christianity can coexist and that slavery is against all Christian morals. She believes no Christian should allow the existence or practice of slavery.

The National Football League has made many people rich, but it is not short of problems, controversy and appauling storylines. The two weaknesses I can identify are issues in player discipline and player health. The NFL is inconsistent in how it disciplines its players. Some have reframed this as an “league image” issue caused by reckless however the statistics support that the league itself is equally to blame for the bad reputation. According to independent research, McCann (2014) states, “The NFL’s punishment of personal conduct violations has been inconsistent and on average less harsh than its punishment of drug offenses” . There are

I do agree that Tom Brady is unethical if indeed he did deflate these balls. However in this situation even if he is proven to be innocent then his charter will still be questioned as he was brought into this situation. For a leader to break the rules it defiantly questions his ethics in his career and in his life. With this it brings so many questions. Has he ever cheated on a game, how long has this been going on and if he did this then what else did he do to win? Since he was accused of this I feel that his charter will always be in question. I feel that he has no courage is in question as it now seems that he feels that he has to cheat to win. I also feel that he has lost his honor by doing this even if he didn’t do it he is still a suspect

The Seahawks looked like they had it in the bag until they threw a game losing interception. After winning his third Super Bowl, Tom Brady was on top of the world, until a scandal about how he won his third Super Bowl was out. Officials say that the ball used in the AFC championship was underinflated by Tom Brady. Accusations started swirling about Tom Brady and if he really deserves a Super Bowl title. Eventually the ruling was overturned and Tom Brady was Scot free. No one knows if Tom Brady deserved his last Super Bowl. All we know is that he’s having another MVP type season and he might win another championship. So when it comes down to stats, awards, Championships, games won, and the obstacles he overcame Tom Brady is undoubtedly The best quarterback of all

Tom Brady and the New England Patriots were accused of deflating footballs to give them an advantage in the January 18th AFC Championship game against the Indianapolis Colts. Deflated footballs are easier to grip and throw, giving their team a direct advantage over the Colts. The Indianapolis Colts equipment manager first suspected the balls did not meet the NFL’s minimum standard right before half time and after measuring the balls he notified officials. Most all of the balls the Patriots had were not measuring to the correct standard and they found that Tom Brady knew of the violation and said nothing. Punishment from the NFL was a one million fine, four game suspension without pay and the loss of not only their 1st round draft pick in 2016 but also their 4th round draft pick in 2017. In addition, the two equipment staffers responsible for the incident were also indefinitely suspended. (ESPN.com) However, Tom Brady recently won his court appeal overruling the 4 game suspension and will be a starting player in the upcoming

Kimberly Doherty Mr. Chapman English, Block C 9 May 2018 How Tom Brady Came To Where He Is Today Tom Brady is a Quarterback for the New England Patriots, he was born August 3,1977 in San Mateo California. Tom was drafted by the NFL New England Patriots in 2000. He had won two NFL MVP Awards, four Super Bowl MVP awards, and has a record of five Super Bowl wins. Brady was suspended after a incident known as the “Deflategate” in which he supposedly knew about the illegal deflation of footballs before an important playoff game in 2015. After the court battles and appeals, the suspension was overturned and then reinstated.

Tom Brady will serve his 4-game suspension his up coming season, after NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has upheld the league's decision to suspend the quarterback. Brady was suspended four games in May after footballs used by the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship Game against the Indianapolis Colts were deflated. Playing with either inflated or underinflated footballs is against the NFL guidelines, which state all footballs used during games must be 12 1/2 to 13 1/2 pounds. The footballs the Patriots used during the AFC Championship Game were 2 pounds under the league's requirement. Brady and the Patriots would go on to defeat the Indianapolis Colts 45 to 7, which placed them in the Super Bowl XLIX game. Even though the NFL was

The conflict in this text is that the new England Patriots were using under inflated balls in the AFC Championship game. All eleven of the Patriots balls tested, measured below the minimum pressure level of 12.5 pounds per square inch (psi). The patriots won the championship game and advanced to win Super Bowl XLIX. The Indianapolis Colts felt as they bad been cheated and demanded the NFL to look into the balls. The NFL announced that Theodore V. Wells Jr would conduct the investigation. The investigation was conducted pursuant to the policy on integrity of the game and Enforcement of Competitive Rules. Tom Brady the quarterback of the patriots, is responding to

The players and teams receive too much leeway when they are involved with crimes or misconducts. They have a “distorted view of themselves” (White) which induces them to “overvalue their abilities and are proud and condescending when relating to others” (White). The league is responsible for investigating and taking action against the players and teams that do not follow the NFL Personal Conduct Policy which the league describes as avoiding “conduct detrimental to the integrity of and public confidence in the National Football League” (ESPN). This is required to be accepted by all workers in the NFL: players, general managers, coaches, owners, sideline/team employees, and even game officials. Roger Goodell, because of his title and job description, is delegated to be the “the judge and the jury in individual cases” (Pease). This responsibility he has is not a wise way of handling cases because there needs to be some sort of committee involved in order to give a thorough, well balanced, opinion and

The first step on the road to redemption for the Steelers and hopefully soon the entire NFL, is to give back to the players. The Steelers, by making their contributions to the players public, can jumpstart a chain reaction with other teams in the league and they can follow suit to overall make the brutal game of football a safer endeavor. These retired players were once adored by fans and now serve as living legends and are still viewed in an incredibly high stature, so if the Steelers organization tries to push this aside and not give credit and compensation where it is due, it will make the Steelers look cheap and hard-hearted. In order to settle the case the

As previously mentioned, Stowe composed Uncle Tom’s Cabin to express the various views of slavery, and how it impacted the lives of those affected by this lifestyle. Growing up in this century, Stowe found the institution of slavery to be corrupt, with “the country requiring her complicity in a system she thought was unjust and immoral” (Uncle Tom’s Cabin). As Stowe did not believe in the Fugitive Slave Law—which required everyone to aid in the capture of fugitive slaves—she chose to hide runaway slaves, and her family promoted her drive to aid those in need. Stowe accomplished this feat through housing, feeding, and smuggling slaves to legal freedom in Canada, because it was the Christian thing to do.

It is extremely difficult for the modern reader to understand and appreciate Uncle Tom’s Cabin because Harriet Beecher Stowe was writing for an audience very different from us. We don’t share the cultural values and myths of Stowe’s time, so her novel doesn’t affect us the way it affected its original readers. For this reason, Uncle Tom’s Cabin has been heavily scrutinized by the modern critic. However, the aspects of the novel that are criticized now are the same aspects that held so much appeal for its original audience.
