Here are some things Deflategate has lasted longer than

Deflategate has outlived a lot of things in its 277-day-and-counting lifespan.

Judge Richard Berman has ruled Tom Brady eligible to compete in Week 1 after nullifying his four-game suspension for involvement in the Patriots' Deflategate scandal. The NFL will appeal the decision, which is only expected to extend the scandal's 277-day lifespan after Thursday.
