Tom Brady won his Deflategate case, but the Patriots still paid a huge price
Judge Richard Berman's decision to overturn Tom Brady's 4-game suspension is the talk of the sports world right now.
The 40-page decision offered unwavering details regarding the many ways in which Roger Goodell and the NFL mishandled the entire process, and now even rival NFL players are taking to Twitter to show their support for Brady and the court's decision.
Lost in all this commotion, however, is the fact that the New England Patriots will still lose their 2016 1st and 4th round draft picks, in addition to a $1 million fine, as a result of Deflategate.
