To the effect that Belichick said, "My coaching mentality, my philosophy has always been to make things as difficult as possible for players at practice," you wonder what does this have do to with the allegations? He goes onto to say that the footballs would be made worse at practice. If it were cold, they'd make the ball colder. And so on. He says, basically, he has no idea how the pre-game football approval occurs. The refs approve the footballs. "We play with what's out there." Apparently not.
Why is the NFL allowing separate balls for the two teams? This is the real issue. Why do the players on "Team One" have one set of footballs, throughout the whole game, and the players on "Team Two" have another set of footballs, throughout the whole game?
This makes no sense.
There shouldn't even be an opportunity for one team to have an edge, with a different set of equipment. They should all play with the same footballs. Simple.
