So, BB just did a presser, talked about their preparations of the football, how they're selected (they're picked for grip and texture, seaming, and stitching) etc... they also did tests where they'd take a ball filled at 12.5psi and then use it out in practice for an hour, which showed a 1.5psi drop over that timeframe. Then were brought back inside, and the pressure raised back up to near original levels. Also said don't believe him, do the tests yourselves. The barometric pressure, temp etc.. are all publicly available bits of information, so should be easy to replicate.

Additionally, they said throughout the course of their investigation they found that none of their QB's could tell the difference between balls w/ a 1psi difference, and while they were able to identify 'some' that were 2lbs different, their ability to identify them was inconsistent.

Anyway, some good stuff in the interview, and Tom Curran being a jackass hah.
