He was only taking a little pressure out of each so there's no reason it should take more than a few seconds per ball. Easily doable in 90 seconds.

Yeah, as long as you weren't trying to hit a specific pressure, that's plenty of time. Hmm, did they all test out to the same pressure at halftime?

You're on the wrong side of Occam with this.

This whole party started when Tom Brady beat the Rams in 2001. I hate the Patriots as much as any good red-blooded American should, and I still laugh a 'Cheatriot' jokes. But this is about as big of a non-issue as they come.

90 sec? I don't know about you, but that sounds about right get bags in room, belt, button, fly, pee, finish, wash hands, dry hands, get bags, open door...... Should take about 90 second to 2 minutes. Takes me about that long, though I am 48.

Now let's do 12 football's, unzip bag, dump balls out, grab ball, find inflation hole, insert needle, wait 2 sec, remove needle, put ball in bag, it would take ~8 sec per ball... Plus the~30 sec to get setup/leave, 8*12=96... We are at about 2 minutes minimum...

I'm thinking... He had to pee.

11 balls but yeah I have ragged on the pats pretty fucking hard but the 90 seconds to deflate the balls in the pisser is fucking stretching it.

He's a ball deflation ninja wizard.

The bigger scandal is that he washed his hands with only water and used a hand dryer, then somehow gave handjobs to each of the Colts' balls. Imagine the germs!

according to those who have watch the video, the bag was a large duffle bag. So unzip bag, stick needle in, move on to the next one. No need to remove the balls at all.

Thats fucking flimsy man, the idea is to get the ball to the point brady likes them and there is absolutely no leeway for that unless the guy has been doing it for years. I don't doubt they cheated at all or have been cheating or will get in trouble for cheating, but the bathroom deflation thing even for someone who wants a reason to hate seems like its stretching it.

All 12 were deflated. The 11 of 12 was the early espn story during day 1.

Lenardo · Jan 27, 2015

so large duffle. so how to ensure you only take one...once...

still is going to take a good 8sec per ball though even rooting through the duffle.

no way it's anything beyond the dude had to go...

Would it shock you if it had been happening for years?

Just saying what I've read. I'm not saying it is possible or not.

Can a bag of footballs be deflated in 90 seconds? | ProFootballTalk

So can 12 (or in this case 11) footballs be deflated in that amount of time? One league source with extensive knowledge and experience in the NFL believes that 90 seconds provides enough time to do it - especially if the type of bag allowed the valves to be accessed without individually removing them. (The bag in the photo, for example, has a large zipper that when open permits quick access to the balls.)

The source called it as "easy" thing to do. "Needle in each ball for a couple of seconds," the source said.

Every team cheats. Cowboys buy refs , tons of teams get nailed for PED's, Pats have saggy balls. No one is able to cast the first stone here.

Sure, but when you get caught, you should be punished.

I love that an actual response in this thread essentially reads as "Hold up bro, it was only 11 balls, not 12. Definitely time enough to deflate 11."

Wish they would have bought the one that called a catch an incomplete pass.
