Ah, the return of deflategate ... Thank you Ted Wells (of the Wells Report) and Tom Brady for yet another body language teaching moment .... It has been leaked that Roger Goodell will indeed suspend Tom Brady - the only issue now is for how long.
A rarely discussed but highly reliable nonverbal signal is the biting of the inside of one's cheeks - or alternatively, a truncated version of this phenomenon created by a relative and temporary vacuum inside the mouth resulting in the sucking-in of the cheeks. In Super Bowl XLIX, the New England Patriots quarterback was captured in this highly characteristic nonverbal facial display. These body language configurations are strongly correlative with anxiety and a desire to suppress both the outward expression and inward crescendo of nervousness.
Tom Brady did indeed cheat and his nonverbal behavior told us all along.
