Go Seahawks!!

So if a football is under-inflated by a certain %, and a LiPo is over-charged by a certain%, do they cancel each other out, or will the LiPo eventually inflate over time from over-deflation due to a high % LVC being used when the temperature is lower due to over-deflated egos of some involved, or should we just switch to newer high Voltage Lipos and call it even?

You know, from watching football, one would think that fumbles come from mishandled snaps, muffed punts/kicks, and defensive players punching the ball out. But apparently all this time it's been from the ball being too "hard". Lol. You guys act like these players are throwing and catching flat, squishy balls out there. I get the feeling that some of you are picturing a ball inflated to 1psi vs. a ball inflated to 10+psi.
There's a lot of pseudo-science from both sides on this matter. Another analysis said that the ball diameter and "hardness" would be a negligible amount changed from the inflation difference, but travel just a bit slower in the air, giving the defensive player the edge. Whatever. It's all nonsense that's being made out of nothing. If you think that Tom Brady (or anyone) prefers a certain feel to a football that's fine. If you think this is really creating a difference in fumbles you're crazy.
One could graph many different stats from a single team compared to a league average and make their own story up. If you compared Peyton Manning's interceptions and touchdowns in Foxboro compared to in Indy, or at all other venues combined, you would see a drastic difference. Why? Apparently someone must be messing with his footballs while he's doing insurance commercials...

If we find that the teams who have consistently lost a lot of games the last few years also fumbled the ball a lot, does that mean their footballs were over-inflated?

If the NFL finds there was intent, I expect this support and excusing of the cheaters to be retracted.

Otherwise, I'll go ahead and overcharge just a LITTLE bit. After all, it doesn't have any real affect on my driving or race-craft...

Could care less about deflategate! (no class in ANY professional sport anymore) I just want to see a good ball game, last year I switched over to the Puppy Bowl.
I don't like either team playing, lol kind of wish they both could find a way to lose, but really don't care as long as it's a close exciting game.

A computer ran this game based on every imaginable stat, fact, etc...............if fact it ran it 50,000 times(google it if you are interested)

Final outcome of 50,000 games "played"

Seattle 23-20

[Flying Scotsman]

Did it include stats for deflated balls!!! Just wondering

I don't have a dog in this fight, don't really care who wins.
But, I would enjoy seeing Brady getting pounded into the ground a few times. No broken bones or anything, just a good general beating. Does that make me a bad person? LOL

My favorite two teams in the NFL to watch over the last few years...about to do battle.
Looking forward to big hits and big plays!

Well I guess Seattle couldnt "luck" their way into another win...................too bad they went the "bush league" route at the end, not classy
