So apparently the whole contrived controversy about the Patriots using slightly under-inflated footballs in their blow-out win over Indianapolis has already been termed "Ball-ghazi."
This pleases me. For we typically apply the suffix "-gate" to reference some potentially earth-shattering scandal that threatens to bring down the highest echelons of power, as Watergate did to Nixon. By contrast, we use "Bengazi" to reference some totally manufactured scandal and non-existent conspiracy, blown clear out of proportion and artificially kept alive solely because it implicates someone we irrationally hate. Way to live up to the original, Ball-ghazi.
That having been said, screw the Pats, GO SEAHAWKS!!!
