The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit denied Brady’s request for a rehearing on Wednesday, meaning his four-game suspension for his role in the Deflategate controversy will stand unless he appeals to the Supreme Court. Now, they were not making any decisions until they had to and at that point they didn’t have to make a decision about the Supreme Court.

Brady was asking for the full 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to hear the case. The NFL Players Association said it was disappointed but declined to say whether it planned to appeal. The greatest sociopath to ever play quarterback in the National Football League has given every indication that he will petition the United States Supreme Court to hear the case concerning the exact way he likes his balls handled by two overweight minimum-wage locker room troglodytes. I’ve been playing against him every year.
“To use football terminology, a petition to cert for the Supreme Court is a Hail Mary”, Jodi Balsam, who served as an NFL counsel from 1994-2007, told USA Today.
The second US Circuit Court of Appeals in NY issued a terse ruling saying only that it had denied a petition filed by Brady and the NFL Players Association.
Brady has done all he can to fight the suspension, but the odds are firmly against him. The Bills defensive tackle would rather Brady played and beat him than pick up a victory over the Patriots without the superstar quarterback.
With Brady set to miss the first four games of this season, backup Jimmy Garropolo is expected to start.
In the history of temper tantrums, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is about to reach a heretofore unheard of level. “I hate that Brady’s not going to be there”. That’s because Dareus is actually sad he won’t be able to take it to Brady in Week 4 of the season. As the clock ticks to Week 1, Brady faces a tough play call.
This would give them a chance.

While Dareus is a great player and has a $96 million dollar contract, his value against the Patriots has diminished over the years as New England has pushed the tempo and reduced the impact of defensive pass rushers.
