This Silliness over "Cheating"
Don't offensive linemen cheat when they hold a defensive player and get away with it?
Don't defensive backs cheat when they interfere with a receiver and get away with it?
How often do these things happen during a season? Hundreds? Thousands of times?
It's the job of the league and referees to "police" the game.
Deflate or no deflate it's their job to check the footballs.
