A Massachusetts woman has used her own obituary to stand up for Tom Brady. According to Patricia M. Shone of Auburn, Massachusetts, Tom Brady is innocent of any involvement in the now-infamous “Deflategate. ” The obituary says that Shone died on Monday with her family by her side. It also mentions that the 72-year-old liked scrapbooking, weekly card night, and spending time with her family. And it says… “She would also like us to set the record straight for her. Brady is innocent!!” We aren’t sure if we agree, with Patricia. May she rest in peace. Tom Brady was accused of deflating balls before the AFC Championship game, won by the Patriots en route to the Super Bowl title two weeks later. After an NFL investigation by Tom Wells found that the footballs were in fact deflated, and that the star knew it; Brady was suspended for four games. The New England Patriots were also fined $1 million and docked a pair of draft picks, although they still won their fourth NFL championship. In retrospect, the league could have saved a ton of time and money, had Wells simply consulted Patricia before she died. View Slideshow: 16 Scandalous Sports Stories
