Retired NFL quarterback Tim Hasselbeck, now an ESPN analyst, shared his wisdom and perspective with Twitter fans following New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick’s press conference on #deflategate.
Hasselbeck minces no words in putting the onus on Patriots QB Tom Brady.
coaches, refs, average fan wouldn't be able to tell the difference by holding them.

Doctoring fb's & deflating fb's after game officials inspect them are 2 very different things.

Hasselbeck administered reality checks to some clueless football fans and got some backup.

Agree with @tthasselbeck — the ball deflating takes place btw QB's and ballboys/equipment managers. Very good chance Bellichek didn't know

Hasselbeck is shaking off the hate and continuing to speak plain truths.

@tthasselbeck haha well done. People that hate the Pats don't care about the findings. They have all the info they need. Ridiculous.
