Bill Nye The Science Guy Calls BS on Bill Belichick’s Deflategate ‘Science’

Since no news apparently happened in the past week, most of the news media’s attention has been focused squarely on Deflategate, which is easily the least important sports “scandal” of the year.

After New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick held a press conference and used fancy “sciencey” words like “equilibrium” and “climatic conditions” to prove to the world he really had no idea what he was talking about, Good Morning America actually brought in Bill Nye The Science Guy to explain just how full of it Bill Belichick The Science-ish Guy really is.

“What he said doesn’t make any sense,” Nye unequivocally states. “Rubbing the football? I don’t think you can change the pressure, to really change the pressure you need… the inflation needle.”

For good measure, Nye added an adamant, “Go Seahawks!”
