In Current Events we read an article entitled The Mystery Surrounding New England Patriots' Deflated Footballs. With less than a week left before Superbowl  XLIX, the argument among sports fans and experts should largely be about which of the two teams - the New England Patriots or the Seattle Seahawks - is going to take home the coveted title. However this year, the light banter has been overshadowed by a more serious discussion - did the Patriots cheat at the January 19th AFC Championship Game against the Indianapolis Colts by using deflated balls?
