Chris Christie Used Tax Dollars To Buy So Much Damn Food At NFL Games

Christie’s most notable spending spree occurred during the 2010 and 2011 NFL football seasons at MetLife Stadium, where the New York’s Giants and Jets play their home games. New Jersey’s governor traditionally enjoys free use of luxury boxes for games and other events at the government-owned venue, but food and beverages cost extra.

On 58 occasions, Christie used a debit card to pay a total of $82,594 to Delaware North Sportservice, which operates the concessions at MetLife. The governor’s office did not provide any receipts, business reasons or names of individuals entertained, but defended the expense.

Thats your tax money Jersey. what a fat f*ck

That is $1,424.03 per game.

Sounds about right .... for FF Chrsitie and 49 of his closest friends.

Brady will appeal and end up with a two game suspension.

So much for Brady being untouchable like some thought.

So Brady gets a longer suspension for deflating footballs than Ray Rice got for punching his girlfriend?

Well, perhaps if there had been a video of him deflating the balls.......

I would say Brady, knowing that the NFL was going to investigate this to the fullest and treat a deflated ball investigation by 1.2 psi like a multiple homicide, he just should have come clean and told the truth. The 4 games seems fair cause he lied, but the draft picks is just overboard. This was an individual, not an organizational thing.

it was an org thing. it's not like brady was doing this on his own. apparently it's been going on for a while per the pats plunge in fumble % vs the league average. how to you make up for unfair competitive advantage? draft picks seems fair enough. just my opinion.

The team must be accountable for their players, like a father is responsible for their child breaking something at the store or the police chief takes the fall for the vigilante police officer. If you make teams accountable for their players, they spend more effort making sure their players fall in line.


Personally I think they could have gotten more - I feel this amounts to a slap in the wrist. The league should never have allowed Brady to play in the SuperBowl in the midst of the cheating scandal. Seems unfair that we do nothing wrong and get a $30 million salary cap penalty the day before free agency that set us back 2-4 years.. And yet the Patriots get caught cheating with major scandals twice in one decade, and lying about it on national TV -- and only get $1 million dollar fine and a few game suspension. Their division sucks and they still have every shot at making the playoffs this year.

You can believe that Kraft's mission in life has become See Goodell....gone

[Chico23231]

Little harsh IMO for Brady, but 1st and a 4th round pick on top of that is like dayummmm

[Alvin Walton]

I'm think its more about the NFLs integrity and rule tampering.
= setting an example for possible future wrong doers
I think the whole this is fuxxored.
If I was Brady I would tell the media in a polite way that Goodell is a giant douche bag and as a result of that.....I'm retiring.....bye

They never should have let teams adjust game balls anyways. Until deflategate I had no idea teams didn't always play with the same condition football.

According to a steeler fan buddy, the practice of letting teams tweak the balls started around 2007 with Manning and Brady demanding it. Is that true? (My friend does froth at the mouth whenever Peyton and Brady are mentioned, anyways.)

Someone who is business savvy please tell me just how much does a one million dollar fine affect someone who is as wealthy as Robert Kraft. My brother and I seem to believe that for a business owner like that, one million dollars isn't really jack shit, but not really seeing / understanding that kind of wealth, i'm not 100% sure. My gut says it's no big deal for a multi-millionare guy to lose a petty million dollars...
