Colts had the means to cheat, also, is the point you're missing, and the evidence is just as strong against them, as it is against the Patriots, which is to say, not strong at all.  Merely circumstantial.

And I've been pretty consistent throughout all of this, providing updates on information that doesn't look kindly on the Patriots as well as information that does.  I'm also on record saying I support punishment if the Patriots did in fact tamper with the balls after Walt Anderson checked them.  So, unfortunately, you're the only one in this conversation who's shown an incapacity to be objective.

The Colts lack the motive though. What good does it for them to deflate one ball when they can expect that the other eleven will be okay?

On the other hand, if the Patriots did it, they could play with lighter balls for the entirety of the game, something that benefits the aging Tom Brady.

I hope you seriously didn't write that sentence with a straight face.  They're playing a team that's consistently beaten them throughout Irsay's tenure.  They've embarassed them the past 3 games on the field.  And it's for the AFCCG, and a Super Bowl birth, yeah, no motive whatsoever.  That's some objectivity right there.
