Remember When Roger Goodell Lied About When the NFL Knew About Deflategate? That Was Fun
“The MMQB: Can you say that the first time that you heard about this was after the game?
Goodell: Yes.
The MMQB: You know that there’s a storyline out there that you knew about the deflating and wanted to catch them in the act.
Goodell: Let’s just short circuit this a little bit. I’m not going to get into what we knew and when we knew it because that’s part of what he’s investigating. … I can tell you that I was not personally aware of it until after the game.”
What a web we weave when we practice to deceive. This is the man who is running the investigation. A man who has proven over the past 12 months to be a pathological liar. A man who has been sued in the past for defamation of character. A man who gave Ray Rice 2 games for knocking a woman unconscious because he “never saw the punch.” A man who if we’re to believe the Wells Report blatantly lied about when the NFL became aware of Deflategate. Yet we are the ones under investigation? It must be nice to hire your own investigators and lawfirms to just confirm whatever you tell them to confirm and not investigate you at all. Phillip Morris hired these guys to say smoking was healthy. Now the NFL has hired them to say the Patriots are probably guilty. What a world…..
PS – When Peter King catches you in a lie by accident I can’t even imagine how many more lies there are below the surface.
