Seven years after Spygate, the New England Patriots are in trouble with the NFL once again.
This time it has nothing to do with videotaping the opposition. The NFL is investigating the Pats for use of deflated footballs during their AFC Championship win over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday night. ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported last night that 11 of their 12 game balls were found to be underinflated by two PSI.
The report lead to some inspired photohopping from the New York Daily News as they labelled the AFC Champions the "Deflatriots".
