there is a report out that there will be on settlement Stephen a smith on first take dropped a rumor that brady destroyed his cell phone. If that is true sure looks bad for him as far as what the public perception will be.

Something tells me all of a sudden certain members of this forum will discover a newfound love of Stephen A. Smith.

That's probably complete nonsense. Brady should be aware his cellular carrier would retain records of texts for an undetermined length of time. Killing his cell would be illogical.

If Brady didn't destroy his cell phone, will they apologize to him for starting a false rumor? The way they didn't apologize to Dez for saying he committed an act of violence on a woman that would make Ray Rice look like Bambi...

When you consider this whole farce started as a result of a false leak by the league, and all the public spent months getting riled up over something that was proven untrue, I'm willing to bet no apology with be forthcoming regarding anything to do with his phone...

Not to mention the little fact that the league is not a government entity. Once Brady refused to turn over his phone, there was nothing the league could do about it. It's not like they could raid his house or subpoena the thing.

This is probably typical media nonsense we see all the time. Something like: "BRADY DESTROYED HIS PHONE when he went cliff diving and dropped it against some rocks."

The league's legality is completely irrelevant. The league commissioned a voluntary investigation where Brady voluntarily declined to surrender his cell. Even Brady probably understood his noncompliance would complicate instead of simplify the issue's resolution. That said, I have hoped Brady or the NFLPA would take the issue to court. In so doing, Brady would not not be required to surrender his cell for examination. Instead, his cell records would be subpoenaed and render his opposition completely ineffective.

I do agree that this does seem like another case of media sensationalism. It would not surprise me that the story has the customary quotable unnamed source or sources that are unverifiable.

Schefter just confirmed the breaking the phone rumor.

Brady appeal is denied. 4 games stand.

If this breaking the phone thing is true, I won't be able to find enough words in English to express my disgust to Brady. I never thought I could hate a team more than Eagles but Pats are getting up there slowly. Cheater low life organization.

The records can only be seen with a subpoena and the NFL does not have the power to do that.

Since he did destroy his phone...why would they apologize?

Just friendly advice...You and this Tom Brady stuff...not very good together...every time you puff your chest out to defend something about him or the patriots it winds up blowing up in your face like Daffy Duck playing robinhood
