Tom Brady just appealed his suspension because Deflategate is seriously still happening
Worried Deflategate was finally resolved? Never fear, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady appealed his four-game suspension to the entire U.S. Second Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday, one month after a court reinstated it.
As a reminder, this legal back-and-forth is all the result of Brady's alleged role in his team's deflating of footballs to get an advantage over the Indianapolis Colts in a 2015 playoff game. Naturally, the Pats went on to win the Super Bowl that year.
