Al is smart and honest. Lots more candor than most in his position. Great interview.

The QB always checks the ball air before the game. ALWAYS. They have their preferences.

excellent point by Bill. Even as a Denver fan, the Manning worship is pretty ridiculous especially compared to Brady hate

Quit it with this argument Bill. This is probably the worst argument against Deflategate you have. It does not take any time to say "Hey, 0.5 under today."
