Rachel Maddow Tests Balls In A Men's Room


Ricky Maddow, MSNBC's gender confused Starlet....Star....anchor goes all Mythbusters in this segment on the under-inflated foot-the-ball scandal, testing out the hypothesis that a New England Patriots employee may have done something nasty to the footballs in a stadium restroom.  

With the help of TRMS web producer Will Femia, Ricky tests whether it is indeed possible for one man to deflate 11 footballs by exactly 2 PSI in just 90 seconds, which is just one theory of this latest hennas crime to bubble forth from professional sports. 

We won’t spoil the results — not that Maddow  cares about them because as a Bostonian, she’s already certain the Patriots are innocent. But this is cable TV investigative time-killing at its finest.

Shockingly edited from the MSNBC video is the very end of the segment, Maddow’s handoff to Lawrence O’Donnell, in which O’Donnell said, “Now I’ve seen everything: The Rachel Maddow Show playing with balls in men’s rooms.”

“Yeah,” Maddow  replied, “You wouldn’t expect it from everything you’ve heard about this show, would you?”
