You have the right to reserve judgment until the Pats release a statement. But what do you think that statement will say?

For the sake of argument lets say that the NFL strips the Pats of a 2nd and 4th round pick next year. The Krafts and/or BB will read a statement that will probably go something like this: "Today the NFL has docked us two draft picks in 2008 due to violations of league rules on Sept. 9th, 2007. We apologize to the Jets organization and our fans for this indiscretion. We look forward to the next 15 games we have left on our schedule". And that's all you're going to get other than BB saying, "I think I made myself clear in the statement I just read. It is what it is. Next question".

I don't know what kind of opinion or judgment you can form based on that scenario.
