robert kraft was not there. robert kraft was not at that news conference.lot of folks asking why he was not there. he did not want to speculate about when the investigation might wrap up. he mentioned ted wells head king up the investigation, the same attorney that headed up the investigation of the bullies with the miami dolphins. a lot of folks thought it was going to be taken care of quickly and that it might be out of the way before the big game started. not the case. super bowl xlix set to happen here. the best team in the nfc taking on the best team in the afc. the footballs will be closely watched on sunday. >> the footballs will be taken into custody. craig melvin always good to see you. >> good to see you. >> joining me now is kavitha davidson and former denver broncos tight endvitha kavitha, is this a legitimate chill between goodell and craft? >> it'll be interesting to see if this cozy relationship between the two does break down a little bit. robert kraft came out with his statement demanding an apology from the league once this investigation w

that could be bad news for the seahawks although robert kraft when asked about things yesterday saysost of the players think these allegations are "hogwash." all kinds of adjectives floating around here. >> can you tell us about the new allegations coming out as to who may be responsible for deflating the footballs? >> reporter: there's multiple reports out about what's on the videotape shown in the bottom of the stadium there at gillette. there are cameras everywhere. those were installed into a lot of the stadiums after september 11th. according to the report from fox news the ball boy who was responsible for taking the footballs from the officials locker room to the field which is what he's supposed to do made a stop "in another room." there's another report from nbc saying that that other room was a bathroom and that he was in that bathroom for approximately 90 seconds. i can't tell you, carol, what he was doing in that bathroom. there's obviously speculation about whether he was using the bathroom or whether he was using that closed room where of course there are no cameras. it'

robert kraft is on that committee.e broadcast committee that does the billion dollar deals. so roger goodell's group is owners and it includes robert kraft. >> i would love to be a fly on the wall here. for the first time since anyone can remember they're on the opposite sides of an issue. goodell has to come out and do something that shows that he has control over this league. so now he is essentially at odds with his biggest ally. >> here is kraft firing a warning shot toward roger goodell about demanding an apology. >> if the wells investigation is not able to definitively determine that our organization tampered with the air pressure in the footballs, i would expect and hope that the league would apologize to our entire team and in particular coach belichick and tom brady for what they had to endure this past week. >> two observations first of all, the verb endure seems a bit much. second, robert kraft's hair game is tight. >> i wish he would have been full on "godfather 2." he said if you don't have anything you o

here is robert kraft of the team owner >>: if the investigation is not able to definitively turner determinedaccusation that we tampered with the air pressure in the footballs' i would expect and hope that the league will apologize to our entire team and in particular to the coach and tom brady. they were able to beat the blizzard that is hitting the east coast and forcing cancelation of some nba and college basketball games they touched down in phoenix this afternoon tom brady departing from the plane the nfl has zeroed in on a new england patriots locker room attendant who allegedly took the afc championship game balls from the officials' locker room to another area on the way to the field, fox sports reported, citing sources. the league has supposedly interviewed him and has video. meanwhile at the beginning of a press conference after the team arrives in arizona patriots owner robert kraft had this to say the raiders resigned defensive back charles woodson today to a one-year contract extension the 38-year old had one of his best seasons last year, with 113 tackles, a sack and four interc

probably not as long as robert kraft and roger goodell are still taking pictures at their respective he was just at kraft's house last week before the championship. talk about conflict of interest. >> terrence moore, what is your response to that? >> well today at media today i spent a lot of time around richard sherman, there was one particular reporter who kept badgering him, a nasty exchange between the two of them. the reporter was trying to get him to back down. he would not back down. and he brings up an excellent point here. the one thing i disagree with sage on i think it goes beyond tom brady. i think the guy behind it is bill belichick. he's the most detailed head coach maybe in the national football league history. on media today somebody account bill bet check, what is the greatest game you can remember playing in and he went back to a game in 1971 gave all the details that you would want and more. and gave the final score of 38-7. somebody with that kind of detail, there's no way in the world he did not know what happened here. >> all right. well, the owner has come out

you mentioned robert kraft.s list because there's questions that the police and prosecutors have about what conversations did hernandez have with his teammates, with his coaches, in the days after that murder. it will be interesting to see if after the super bowl they are called to the stand. you notice the trial starts this week. there's no new england prosecutor that will ever call bill belichick to the stand during super bowl week. but down the road we may see that. >> coy, did you know aaron hernandez? i did not know him. know people who had been around him. to rachel's point, this has been forgotten quite some time ago. he has lost all right and privilege to be part of the nfl fraternity and brotherhood, lied to many wrongdoing allegedly. i think this is a situation where we're not going to hear much about it talks of the super bowl players coaches. closer to game day will be more and more about what's going to happen between the lines on game day. >> rachel nichols, coy wire thanks to both of you. >>> satu

not be punished for deflating footballs because commissioner roger goodell and patriots owner robert kraft are best friends. richard sherman and the seahawks arrived over the weekend. the patriots flew in today. as soon as they arrived and settled in, team owner robert kraft met with the media and change the narrative on deflate-gate. >> if the wells investigation is not able to definitively determine that our organization tampered with the air pressure of theootballs i would expect and hope that the league would apologize to our entire team and in particular coach belichick and tom brady, for what they have had to endure this past week. >> taking the offensive. college basketball, american university staying within first place, hosting army in a critical league game. just 39 seconds left, army with the ball. dylan cox, put the pressure, banks it. 68-66 army. american inbounds the ball. charlie jones has the look for the win. air ball. oh, charlie. army beats american, 68-66. chapel hill, syracuse at carolina. three balls a big story in this one. off the bench to score a career-high 17 poi

robert kraft said if the pats are found not guilty he wants a public apology from his friend and the commissioner roger goodell. something the commissioner addressed today in his super bowl state of the union address. >> this is my job. this is my responsibility to protect the integrity of the game. i represent 32 teams. all of us want to make sure the rules are being followed and if we have any information where a potential is that those rules were violated i have to pursue that and i have to pursue that aggressively. so this is my job. this is the job of the legal office. it is somewhat all 32 clubs expect, our fans expect and we will do it vigorously. it is important to be thorough and fair. >> reporter: interesting to note that robert kraft was not in attendance. usually the owner of one of the teams participating in the football is at the state of the union address. let's go back to you in the studio. >> thanks dave. >>> no raiders or niners in the super bowl. but there are plenty of bay area fans in arizona for the big game. >> even if you don't have a ticket many fans checking

>> reporter: yeah there is a recent gq article that referred to robert kraft as quote, the assistant commissioner. in goodell's own office. this keeps coming up. we have the baltimore ravens organization attend ray rice's disciplinary hearing. guess what the baltimore ravens they have a vested interest in whether ray rice gets punished harshly or not or comes back on the field for them. there's all kinds of issues on a tread of these situations the nfl faced where they have conflict of interest problems. if they could separate those out a little more they might be able to solve these issues more quickly and not have own players taking pawn shots at them. >> there's questions about the timeline of this investigation. is this really something that is going to take as long as the nfl seems to say, some raising suggestions that they basically kind of want to kick down the field, pass the super bowl so they can get the attention off it for the super bowl? >> reporter: well tom brady certainly raised a lot of eyebrows when four days after this incident was supposed to have happened they sa

questioning conflict of interest between robert kraft and roger goodell.end that doesn't exist seems a shame. the question is how do you mitigate those. how do you prevent the idea if you do everything right, if you do a thorough and complete and fair investigation, not to have the public trust and not to have the trust of your players. how do you take other steps to make sure that those investigations and those results feel more solid to people. i think there are a lot of fans and some players who have spoken out saying they are looking for that. and so the nfl will explore that. >> i had a bar room debate earlier in the week with a buddy talking about the impact of deflategate and i said it's going to be great for the super bowl. and now i'm looking on line and seeing the tickets are going for 8 grand appeals. do you think deflategate contributed to the hype and interest and ticket prices? >> i certainly don't think it's hurt. look you have two great teams in the super bowl. high profile fan bases, and big name players. so you can't discount those issues

i believe gabe referred to robert kraft as quote the assistant commissioner quoting an nfl executive.perception no matter what you do and that was my point in talking to roger goodell today, you can run an investigation with the highest integrity but if that is the perception there are people in the public who are going to discount it and there's no reason to give yourself that credibility gap. why put that in your own way? why not create a situation where you don't have a credibility gap and then when people of the highest integrity investigate a situation, everybody can take the results at face value. wouldn't that be nice. >> how about let's move past some of the more serious topics. it was a 45 minute news conference. let me ask you about something that i imagine is part of the buzz where you are. what's your over/under on richard sherman's baby arriving on super bowl sunday? >> reporter: well richard assures everyone that the kid is not actually due on sunday. it is the first pregnancy for his girlfriend and statistics show first pregnancies are often running a little bit late so

while at the same time patriots owner robert kraft wants the nfl to apologize to the team if they're exonerated. >> if the wells investigation is not able to definitively determine that our organization tomorrowerred with the air pressure on the footballs, i would expect and hope that the league would apologize to our entire team. >> joining me now co-host of fox and friends and we both love sports a lot. so, what do you make of this latest thing they found this video of the locker room attendant going into the bathroom with the footballs. >> it makes sense. we discussed this on the radio. there's cameras everywhere. you see the cameras for security ropes. the only place would be a bathroom, and the person reporting it is jay glazer, most respected reporter among players and owners in the entire league. he writes for fox sports and you watch him every sunday. we find out the balls were on the video, and the football is going into the bathroom with the attendant for 90 seconds. i don't think personally had -- according to the story had both ball bags with him in a small bathroom for 9

. >> reporter: robert kraft talking to reporters down played the effect the scandal is having on players standing by his declaration that his organization has done nothing wrong, confident that nfl investigators will find nothing. >> i would expect and hope the league would apologize to our entire team and in particular coach belichick and tom brady for what they have had to endure this past week. >> reporter: players on both sides doing their best not to talk about the ongoing investigation, which the nfl says won't be completed until after the super bowl. reena, t.j.? >> means we get to keep talking about it and talking about it and talking about it. what do you do here? everybody is fascinated by it. even you a nonsports fan, nonnfl fan. >> you know what else i love about media day, bill belichik was asked from a little girl what stuffed animal do you like. >> bill belichik, i couldn't imagine him with any stuffed animal. >> i like the little puppet that you can put your fingers in a little monkey. >> that's his answer. >> that's his answer word for word. >> sounds about right. the so

robert kraft said in the statement that he released to the media. league sent him a letter on monday and said we're going to launch an investigation into the air pressure of the football. the game was played on sunday night there. were people still on the field technically on monday morning. so there was no conversation about what happened with the football. it was an assumption of guilt because it is the patriots spygate happened in september of 2007. and i believe that this is still the residue of spygate. and i also have to say this. a lot of people talk about the patriots and say there's a culture of cheating there. they've done so many things. there are so many incidents. the big incident was spygate. there was no other cheating involved with the patriots since september of 2007. they got caught. they were penalized. they lost a first round pick. bill belichick was fined $500,000. there was an erroneous report that the boston herald put out in february of 2008 that was dismissed and the herald took the unprecedented step of issuing a front page

robert kraft said the other day that he felt that you and your office owed him an apology if nothing came out of the investigation, the wells investigation. what are your thoughts in that matter? >> well, bob my thoughts are this is my job. this is my responsibility, to protect the integrity of the game. i represent 32 teams. all of us wanting to make sure that the rules are being followed. and if we have any information where the potential is that those rules were violated, i have to pursue that, and i have to pursue that aggressively. so this is my job. this is the job of the league office. it is what all 32 clubs expect and i believe our partners our fans expect. and we will do it vigorously and it is important for it to be thorough and fair. >> roger, sam farmer of the los angeles times. 2015 marks the 20th year without a franchise in the nation's largest market and coincidentally the 20th consecutive year that i've asked this question. earlier -- >> i do recognize it already sam. do you want me to finish it for you? >> should i just drop the mike? earlier this month as jim menti

now interestingly, roger goodell is very close to that man robert kraft.he is the owner of the new england patriots. the patriots tweeted out a picture just last week of roger goodell at robert kraft's house the night before the afc championship game. now roger goodell spends a lot of individual time with each of the 32 nfl owners but it is worth remembering martha that robert kraft the owner of the patriots was one of the first to come to goodell's aid last year when he was getting so much criticism and has consistently been one of his strongest supporters. it's a question that is worth talking about. martha: it certainly is, jonathan. thank you very much. >> reporter: sure. martha: one of the things struck me, tom brady was supposed to have the news conference today but he had it yesterday. they moved it up to yesterday. you have to wonder if he talks to them today. you want to get out there to say, no, i have not spoken with them yet. that was an easy answer at this point for him. there has to be a discussion sooner or later. bill: you can debate whethe
