The NFL continues to thrive on hypocrisy with how the approach Tom Brady and DeflateGate.
In today's scandal-less scandal, fans couldn't find Mike Kensil, the supposed Patient Zero from the league headquarters, on the NFL's Operations website. Kensil, Vice President of Game Operations, was still available on the website, but the notion that Kensil had been fired by the league spread like wildfire.
Greg Aiello, the NFL's PR person, quickly corrected the false report to ensure that everyone was aware that Kensil's status in the league "hasn't changed." The NFL snuffed out a dumb report within 12 hours to ensure one of their employees wasn't caught in the crossfire.
