The Nashville Predators had some fun in their dressing room, poking fun at the New England Patriots and deflate-gate.

Probably one of the most talked about subjects since Sunday has been this issue with the New England Patriots allegedly deflating footballs during their win over the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC Championship. The Patriots were accused of deflating balls on the sideline to make them easier to catch and handle.

The Patriots have said that such allegations are ridiculous, but it hasn’t stopped people from the outside having a bit of fun at the Patriots expense.

It’s even reached the hockey world, as the Nashville Predators decided to have a bit of fun with the fiasco. In the Predators dressing room, there was a normal football and a huge yoga/exercise ball. Someone in the dressing room decided to mark each one appropriately.

Point, Nashville.

Even though Tom Brady has called the allegations ridiculous, head coach Bill Belichick has agreed to comply one hundred percent with the NFL and give them whatever they need for their investigation. If the NFL’s investigation finds the Patriots guilty of the altering the footballs, they could be facing some huge fines and perhaps some other supplementary discipline.

The Predators aren’t the only ones having fun with the situation. Even Patriots own Rob Gronkowski took to twitter to defend his team and give his explanation for the deflated balls.

Oh Gronk, you’re silly.
