NFLFOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Tom Brady said he will not ask the U.S. Supreme Court to block his four-game Deflategate suspension, ending his fight in a scandal that tested the power of the NFL commissioner and tarnished the reputation of one of the sports greatest players.The decision by the four-time Super Bowl champion comes two days after his case was turned aside by the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Bradys only remaining hope to take the field when the Patriots open the season against Arizona on Sept. 11 had been a stay from the nations highest court, which accepts about 1 percent of the appeals submitted.The NFL Players Association said it was still considering whether to seek on its own a Supreme Court ruling that would limit Commissioner Roger Goodells authority to punish players. Dropping the case now would leave in place what the union called this week a broken system that must be fixed.But even if the union fights on, Brady will still sit out the first four games of the season, when the Patriots face the Cardinals, Dolphins, Texans and Bills.
