Well, the first part might be true.

You are wrong, and most likely stupid.

You know what. You are right. ESPN has made all this up and libeled the good name of Belicheck. I am sure it is just a matter of time before he sues them and wins a massive judgment in court.

I realize that as a loyal Patriots that you’ve only been following football for the past 14 years, but you need to read the whole article before speeding to the comment section and tilting at windmills. I suspect you'll retire your fandom, as with the rest of Boston, the Asshole of America, when Brady retires, so may…

You Boston sports fan honks are fucking insufferable, and I know because I’m from Boston.

It is not legal to tape the opposing coaches’ signals. It is not legal now, nor was it legal then. It is not legal with a fox, nor is it legal with a lox. It is not about where the cameraman stands, it is about what is being taped. Coach’s signals cannot be videotaped.

You realize that a good journalist never gives up his sources if they want to remain anonymous, right? Do you know how many true news stories are based on anonymous sources? Most! It’s basic journalistic ethics, guy....

Did you read the article. In the case of The Eagles it was stating that The Pats appeared to have all the answers for a defense that The Eagles hadn’t deployed all year. I know it’s hard to read more than one paragraph but please try.

What does Deflategate have to do with Spygate's particulars and Goodell's coverup of it. Again, did you read the article or are you just arguing because "ILUV DA PATS!"

But what about stealing the playbooks or jamming the headsets on third downs? That’s pretty fucking dirty and downright inexcusable.

Taping another’s team signals was legal? So the Pats lost a draft pick and paid hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines for doing something that was legal? Did you even read the article?

Barry’s comment above: Let’s nip this one in the bud: filming opposing teams’ sidelines was only legal from designated areas in the stadium, and the Patriots’ tapes were filmed from outside those areas.

It was not legal,

Was stealing playsheets and rummaging hotel rooms for playbooks also allowed before 2007? I’m uncertain, enlighten me.

The butthurt Pats fans are out in force today! "There's nothing new in here!" "It was legal!" "ESPN are liars!"
