Perhaps this will finally close the book on Deflategate?
One of the Roger Goodell "clown" towels that Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy had made for the Patriots' season-opener - this one signed by Tom Brady - fetched $6,500 at former Pats offensive lineman Matt Light's charity auction.
A spokeswoman for Light and his Light Foundation confirmed to the Boston Herald that the towel was sold at the live auction at the recent Matt Light Celebrity Shoot-Out.
Portnoy, who paid $140,000 to have the towels made and distributed to fans at the Sept. 7 opener, wrote that he would've paid $10,000 to get the Brady-signed towel, which he called "My holy grail."
I would have gladly paid 10k to get my towel back. Because this would legit be the best memorabilia piece I could ever own. It would be the perfect final chapter in Deflategate to have this hanging on the wall of Barstool World HQ’s. So while I think it’s really cool Brady signed the towel it just doesn’t feel right that I don’t own it.
