...Cheaters ever!

"A former Patriots employee, Matt Walsh, told the New York Times [NYT] on Friday that if he were deposed, “There would be things I’d be forced to answer that some people haven’t taken responsibility for.”

Can you explain in a couple of lines exactly what the allegations are, I wasn't really following the NFL until the last games/playoffs so I don't know much of this

The NFL destroyed the tapes from the cheating game this year.  The Pats are accused of spying on the Rams before that superbowl a couple years ago.

you're jealous.
We all know this year's record was without the help of spying.
You cannot also deny the talent of the players.
And... you're naive if you think the Patriots were the only team doing it.

They were fined a quarter of a million bucks and lost a first round pick.

Get over it.

actually were not that good at cheating, thats why we got caught,

Ron Jaworski was talking to Steve Young this morning and he said when he was playing back in '77 their team stole the other teams signals, so they would know the blitz was coming.


oh and you're allowed to look at the other teams signals even take pictures i think, you're just not allowed to videotape it

goodell also said that one of the Jets coaches looked at the cameraman and waved to him while the signals were being taped, so they knew they were there, i dont know why they acted so suprised

More teams do this than just the patriots. Numerous people who are involved in the league have stated this... the only reason it was such a big deal with the Pats is because they're good. If a bad team was caught doing it, the hubbub would be over.
The pats record this year was not a result of cheating, neither is their undeniable talent...

not sure what you mean... the video tape footage in question was taken before anyone on the team ever saw it, at the first game of the season

Unlike EA, the NFL won't reset the Patriots.


edit: poor wording.

You pretty much gave a child-with-his-arms-folded answer of "NO THEY'RE 18-0 I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY LALALALA CAN'T HEAR YOU".

The unbeaten Patriots will try to win their fourth Super Bowl in seven seasons Sunday when they play the New York Giants.

Early this season, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell fined New England coach Bill Belichick US$500,000 and docked the team $250,000 and a first-round draft pick after the Spygate scandal. The Patriots were accused of videotaping New York Jets defensive coaches as they signalled to players.

New England did not have a walkthrough Saturday. The Giants held one at the Arizona Cardinals' practice facility.

A walkthrough is done without pads or helmets, giving teams a chance to practice their formations.

Goodell spent much of his state of the game address Friday talking about that episode. He said he did not think the Patriots used such tapes to win previous titles.

"There was no indication that it benefited them in any of the Super Bowl victories," he said.

Goodell also defended his decision to destroy notes and videotapes linked to the Spygate, saying "there was no purpose for them."


Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., who sent Goodell a letter asking for explanation, said Goodell's response "didn't make any sense at all."

Prepare to be bombarded with commercials. If it is your first football gameyou may be disapointed, this is one of the longest games of the year
