The Deflategate Punishment To Harsh?!

On Monday Tom Brady the New England Patriots quarterback was suspended by the National Football League for four games. Tom Brady was suspended because he was convicted of  having knowledge of the efforts of the two equipment managers deflating the footballs below the legal standards. The franchise is also fined with 1 million dollars and they will have to forfeit two draft selections over the next two years. One draft selection they will have to forfeit is the first round pick in 2016. The other draft they will have to forfeit is the fourth rounder in 2017. Many of the Patriots fans are not happy with the decisions the National Football League have made." I think it's a joke," said Bryan Simmons from Attleboro."I don't think they should get anything." The quote explains that yeah the Patriots made a mistake and that it should never happen again but the punishment is just to extreme. Suspending Tom Brady for four games is a little to much and the franchise should not be fined 1 million dollars and have to forfeit two draft selections its just not fair. It would make sense if he did something over the top and extreme but this is barley anything yeah it was wrong to do but what does fining the franchise and suspending Tom Brady do but make many fans upset and the New England Patriots Team upset.
