Mere hours after the New England Patriots celebrated their dominant 45-7 win over the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC Championship Game, coach Bill Belichick and his team face another cheating scandal.The regime known for #Spygate after illegally taping St. Louis Rams practices prior to the 2001 Super Bowl is now facing heat for #Deflategate.Allow us to explain: The NFL mandates that game-used footballs must be inflated between 12.5 and 13.5 pounds per square inch and weigh between 14 and 15 ounces. When the weather is poor — as it was on Sunday night, Jan. 18 — teams might be tempted to deflate the footballs they use to make them easier to throw and catch.Apparently, the Patriots were accused of doing so during the championship game, and the league is now officially investigating.
