Tom Brady really can't stop making #DeflateGate a lot worse for himself.

After the controversy broke out about the NFL launching an investigation against the New England Patriots for allegedly deflating their footballs to gain advantage on the field, sports fans on the Internet were shocked, disappointed and absolutely giddy every time they heard the word "balls."

The Patriots quarterback held a press conference on Thursday afternoon to try and clear himself of any wrongdoing, but the Internet is more interested in making hilariously immature jokes that would make any 12-year-old giggle.

To be fair, balls is just a straight-up funny word.
