Tom Brady hit with four-game ban for role in Deflategate

What are the odds on an appeal

Gisele should be getting ready to have Tom Brady around the house a bit more than usual at the start of the new NFL season, after her husband has been hit with a four game suspension. The NFL website is reporting tonight that Brady has been hit with a four game ban for his role in the 'Deflategate' scandal,while his team and the current Superbowl champions the New England Patriots have been fined $1 million dollars. Brady's ban is a result of 'violating the NFL policy on the integrity of the game' after his role in the Deflategate scandal was revealed last week. As well as that the Patriots will now will forfeit a 2016 first rounder and 2017 fourth-round selection in the NFL Draft. Brady's comeback game will be weirdly against the Colts,the team in which the whole scandal erupted in the AFC game

Brady hasn't missed a game for the Patriots since 2008 when he did his ACL,but it is expected that there will be an appeal on the suspension and the fine lodged in the coming days. Twitter has had a mixed verdict on the suspension

Makes perfect sense that Tom Brady's suspension for deflating balls would be twice as steep as Ray Rice's initial penalty for wife beating
