Not to rehash this whole debate, but I wouldn't call it "proven". It is more assumed, all that was technically proven was that some balls were slightly under pressure. Brady could have won the appeal, in fact many now believe that Brady didn't pursue it further due to the fact that his mother was battling cancer at the time, and he wanted to support her. Plus if he drags it out, it only distracts the team further when they needed to focus on the upcoming season
But if you read the full report, there is no direct evidence that Brady (or anyone on the team) was aware of or directed the balls to be deflated. Someone definitely could have deflated them, but it was never actually proven who did it and under whose direction. Just because Brady accepted the deal, does not prove him guilty. One judge had already overturned it, so clearly something was fishy
None of this matters though, the better team won the game and TB is now the uncontested greatest QB (and probably player) of all time. Please keep the hate coming everyone, we love it over here. Makes it so much sweeter when we win it all (like the other 4 times under Brady & Bill). The excuses and accusations just fuel our team
