FLOWERY BRANCH — With the playoffs in fullswing, the re-published ESPN Magazine story, “Spygate to Deflategate: Inside what split the NFL and Patriots apart” is growing new legs.

The story originally appeared in ESPN The Magazine’s Sept. 28 Transactions Issues, but back then everyone was apparently distracted by the start of the season.
