Ben Affleck goes on profanity-laced Deflategate rant (Video)

Ben-Affleck

Ben Affleck has many thoughts about Deflategate. Many, many colorful thoughts.

Affleck was a guest on the premiere of Bill Simmons’ new HBO show “Any Given Wednesday” this week, and he was asked for his opinion about Deflategate. The Boston-raised actor and filmmaker did not hold back. We won’t bother transcribing most of what he said, and you’ll know why when you have a listen.

Obviously, the rant is not suitable for work:

“I talked to pro football players across the board who think it’s bulls—,” Affleck said. “Aaron Rodgers came right out and said, ‘I like to overinflate a ball.’ This is a conspiracy of people working inside the NFL who all come from organizations that Tom Brady whooped their a–.”

Can you tell Ben is good friends with TB12?

In other words, Affleck feels the way every other Patriots fan feels about the whole ordeal. We already know how Simmons feels about the entire thing from when he flew off the handle, so Affleck was in good company.
