@bkravitz @seanp33 I feel like weighing a football is the very worst way to figure out if it's been deflated or not. But... football.

@andyblarsen also seems strange that a team would have access to even be able to do such a thing.

@seanp33 Eh... not really. Home team provides the balls in the NBA, I imagine the same is true of NFL too.

@andyblarsen well basketball is a little different because the ball changes possession so often

@seanp33 @andyblarsen Teams provide their own balls for offensive possession.

@bkravitz They weighed it?? Quick question: how much does air weigh?? Dumbasses.

@DMoneyMax @bkravitz The ball weighs more when inflated. Air does have weight. #Science

@TJoanides @bkravitz Of course. Point is that the difference for a slightly deflated football is insignificant.

@bkravitz What would its weight have to do with air pressure? And if the weight's off, isn't that a manufacturing/QA defect?

@ACMESalesRep @bkravitz How can u weigh a wet leather ball and get any sort of accurate weight???

@DRoss8989 @ACMESalesRep @bkravitz you check the psi....

@bkravitz the teams don't have control of the game balls! The #NFL controls them during the game!

@bkravitz what would the penalty be?

@connormorris_4 @bkravitz they'd have to replay the game under section 34 paragraph 7

@CodyAlliecats @connormorris_4 @bkravitz if you believe that, I feel bad for you lol

@ptl21 @connormorris_4 @bkravitz have you read the rules?
