Panthers...Hot Balls-gate?

Specifically, ball boys used sideline heaters to warm footballs during a late-November, 12-degree game between the Vikings and Panthers at the open-air stadium Minnesota is using until its new indoor facility opens.  Apparently, footballs used by both teams were being heated that way.

“Somebody told me [Carolina’s] ball boys were doing it,” coach Mike Zimmer said, via ESPN.com.

Yea, rehash story by Florio trying to paint the Panthers out as the bad guys (especially using the Panthers picture in an article that's actually about Deflategate...).  Wouldn't even surprise me if it was ignorance on both parts, Panthers and Vikings.  And even so, warming freezing balls up isn't really the same thing as letting air out.  One is trying to return the balls to their natural, regulation state.  The other is trying to make the balls outside of regulations and gain a competitive advantage.

      They don't. Add in a player like LaMelo Ball, who selectively plays when he feels like it, and you cannot compete. If your highly paid players refuse to play full time, what can you do?

      Daniel Jeremiah: Panthers prime trade candidate

      By d-dave · Posted

      Wow, what hard hitting journalism DJ.  What's next?  The sky is blue?  Water is non-compressible?  =P I'm totally down for trading down and acquiring more picks.  We have spent a TON of picks on failed QBs (Darnold and Baker) and paid a king's ransom for Bryce.  We need more talent, more picks, more shots at the dartboard of NFL talent!
