Well This Flew Under the Radar

Apparently back when Goodell and Belichick met after the original SpyGate, Belichick admitted to taping opponents since his first games as coach in 2000. Really? Why wasn't this ever mentioned until now? Pro Football Talk raises the same question. And apparently there was proof that the Patriots taped the Steelers in 2004. During the regular season meeting, which the Steelers won 34-20, the Patriots couldn't compete with the Steelers ferocious defense. In the AFC Championship game in January 2005, the Patriots came out victorious and were seemingly able to stop anything Pittsburgh threw at them. Genius coaching and scheming? Or knowing what Pittsburgh did through illegal taping? Hmmm. Hopefully the full truth will come out soon. In my opinion, the Patriots are screwed. They have been cheating since 2000. If there is real evidence remaining (Matt Walsh?) on whether or not the Patriots taped one of their Super Bowl opponents (Rams? Panthers? Eagles?) in the regular season or before the big game, watch out. Things could get interesting. Bye bye Belichick? Loss of more draft picks?

Goodell is a pansy

I'll write a long rant later when I have the time but that's how I feel.

FYI...The Patriots already have 2 first rounders. Boo-hoo if they lose one. They got an extra one last draft for letting the 49ers jump up a few spots. Belichick is rich. The Patriots are very rich. The money doesn't really hurt that much.

It's official, the Patriots are cheaters

Wow, I don't even know where to begin. I'm honestly so pissed right now I'm at a loss for words. The NFL today determined that after reviewing the Patriots confiscated film, they did in fact cheat by trying to steal the Jets' signals. It says that they have until Friday to present a defense but New England was caught as red handed as you can ever be. The article I read says that the Patriots could get docked "multiple draft picks." Please Sir, Mr., King, Czar, Commissioner Goodell, come down as hard on them as possible.

Breaking news as I write this article...on SportsCenter, they rattled off possible punishments and I heard forfeit. That made me smile. That would be coming down on them very hard. That and minus oh say 3 draft picks. First rounders for the next couple years and a second rounder sounds good to me. Who knows? Maybe stealing those signals were what allowed them to break loose on those big plays. In a sense, it's a shame because the Patriots probably could have beat us fairly easily anyway. If the Pats were busted cheating this past week, it sickens me to think what they may have done in the past. Kill them Goodell...it would make my day/week/nfl season.
