Just when we thought the whole Deflategate thing was about to finally be behind us, ESPN dropped a huge investigative piece that goes into great detail explaining the different things that the New England Patriots have done over the years to break the NFL's rules.
Bill Simmons isn't employed at the moment, after parting ways with ESPN and still being a few weeks away from beginning his new gig with HBO. But that just means that he could completely let loose in defense of his favorite team, and he took to Twitter to mock the other NFL franchises that may have wanted to blame New England's cheating for the reason why critical games against the Patriots were lost.
You may not agree with Simmons using his large social media presence to do this, especially if your favorite team was on the wrong end of one of these Patriots victories. But give the man credit for being completlely self-aware of exactly how this might come across.
