Deflategate II - not their future

NFL officials will be keeping closer tabs on football inflation this season, according to multiple media reports. Pregame pressure readings will now be documented and there will be random halftime and postgame rechecks, as reported by Fox Sports and other outlets. The new procedures also state that footballs remain under the watch of NFL officials, who will inspect each one and deliver them to the "kicking ball coordinator," who will take chain of custody of all footballs until 10 minutes before kickoff. Footballs will continue to be required to have at least 12.5 pounds per square inch of air and no more than 13.5 psi. If a ball falls outside of those numbers and the air pressure must be adjusted, it will be adjusted to 13 psi. According to the reports, which cite NFL officiating sources, the new procedures come in the wake of accusations of ball tampering by the New England Patriots in last season's AFC Championship Game. And now that they've taken care of the deflated pigskins, they can now look at changing the name of the Redskins, maybe to something like the DC Red Hawks.
