    Yes it's the Times, yes there are unnamed sources, yes I believe they screwed McCain over with a baseless smear campaign. But Last I checked their sports section didn't have any outstanding agenda against the right leaning Belicheck. Besides, considering both track records, I'd gladly take the Times word over anything those lying, cheating, dirty, rotten bastards in Foxboro have to say.

    Now on to the crux of the article, basically it cites an unnamed former player as having admitted to the Patriots knowing Tampa's defensive signals before the 2000 regular season opener. Fucking cheaters, they still lost the game, probably hadn't worked out the kinks yet.

    Everybody else was doing it at the same time but is deciding to let the Pats take the fall. It didn't affect the outcome of the game so it doesn't matter. It's only used for scouting purposes.

    Did I miss any?

    Anyone else smell an attempted but failing coverup?

    <As coaches and executives gathered here Thursday for the N.F.L. scouting combine, many saying they were satisfied with the league’s investigation and ready to move on
    , new details were emerging about the history of the Patriots’ videotaping.>

    The NFL says point blank that it is illegal to film other teams signals. They even wrote a letter to every team at the begining of the year clearly stating the rules so their would be no question later because The Patriots were already under scrutiny. So that being said do you really think that he would risk everything , for some scouting films. Obviously they had to have been worth enough for him to take the risk.

    Man, I just love, love, love mincing and parsing and regurgitating and reconstituting this until there's nothing left of it except atoms we can't see. After that, maybe all those atoms will collide over a capacity Gillette Stadium in a violent, lying sh!tstorm and make my life complete.

    Ok after the year we had last year, the superbowl we were forced to watch. the prospective year we having coming this year. What would you have us talk about? Lets see theirs always talking about who we will pick in the draft thats never been done, or maybe we could even talk about last year ....again..Woo there ya go thats bright and new. Or even how great or crappy we will be next year. I got the best idea of all lets comment on posts we read anyway and complain that its already been posted over and over. Talk about reconstituting. Yes we know its been written about, some of us have not been on the board every waking minute of every day. As a matter of fact some of us may have been a little disenchanted at years end and taken a little brake because their was so little to write about. So when we read in the paper that maybe their going after the Patsies again we check in with our friends at GangGreen to see what others think about it. Unfortunately their are those who feel the need to belittle other posters. I won't do that. So coming from those of us who can make your life complete thanks for your intuitive input on all that has been written about Pats scandal.

    I don't think Jeto was being sarcastic about the topic, she was saying hearing this all the time never gets old.

    But she is more than capable of defending herself. *stepping out now*

    Not tryin to start anything just get tired of people criticizing other posts. Jeto new what post was about you dont like it dont read it. But it is that time of the year and we are all cranky after last year so not much to write about. Read the news about Belli this morning and went to the first post I saw and responded. Come back later and read response hence the sarcasm...oh well. See ya in the fall.

    I'm down with it, hello. Criticizing, wha...? Spelling it out for the public good: I piss on the graves of New England Patriots fans and their dead and I'll never get enough of it. HAHAHAHA! See how I laugh! Are we good now? :lol:

    EDIT: Reading back, I guess I can see why it was misinterpreted. Is it any wonder when my Mom would say when I was a kid, "Don't get smart!" that I'd say (seriously annoyed), "Why not?" I got into big, fat, trouble every time.

    I think you just need an interpreter to follow you around to explicate your posts for the uninitiated.
