Tom Brady's 'Deflategate' appeal rejected by federal court (Yahoo Sports)

A federal appeals court has rejected Tom Brady's attempt to get a new hearing on his ''Deflategate'' suspension. Brady was asking for the full 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to hear the case. In April, a three-judge panel said that NFL commissioner Roger Goodell was within his powers when he suspended the star quarterback four games for his role in a scheme to doctor the footballs used in a Jan. 18, 2015, playoff game.
