Kicking balls weren't properly inflated for Chiefs vs Patriots
https://www.masslive.com/patriots/20...source=twitter
Call it Deflategate, Part II. Following their loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, Patriots special teamers were visibly upset in the locker room on Sunday due to an error by the officiating staff. According to multiple sources, the footballs that are meant for each team’s kicking units were underinflated by two pounds. After team complaints, officials took the ‘K-Balls’ into the locker room at halftime where they were discovered to weigh 11 pounds instead of the legal limit of 13.5, per sources. The underinflated footballs didn’t travel as well in the Foxborough weather on Sunday and sources indicated that’s why Patriots kicker Chad Ryland and Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker missed field goals in the first half. Sources noted that the footballs traveled farther in the second half once inflated to the proper 13.5 PSI. |

The NFL is a high school jock that's as dumb as rocks, can't do a damn thing right and is kind of a dick about it, and isn't even good at being a jock... and everyone loves him.

Footballs don't weight 13.5 pounds, they have 13.5 pounds of PSI of air.

Imagine kicking a 11lb or 13.5lb ball. |
