Tiki and Ronde Barber: "Everyone does it and everyone knows it" - New England Patriots Forums

***Rob0729*** · 09-12-2007, 07:34 AM

On their "Barber Shop" show on Sirius NFL radio last night said that that every team has someone who's job it is to try to steal the other team's signals and that everyone in the league knows it is going on. They said they don't know if everyone video tapes it, but they were kinda surprised about the reaction since the Jets were probably doing a similiar thing to the Pats but just wasn't caught.

I dont think the media and nfl is worried about the truth which is the problem!

Lincoln Kennedy said the same thing - which is why we should be hit for videotaping and nothing more.

do you have a link?

also, this is one of the reasons that the penalty, despite the overheated suggestions being thrown around by people who should know better, would be stern but reasonable. (I say "would be" because we still haven't heard the Patriots side of the story!!!)

Its funny how everyone acts like this is something that isn't done ever game ever year. Sorta like thinking the only people who take steroids are the ones that get caught.

Which probably explains why the Pats aren't that eager to quell the PR storm unless they discuss with the league about the implications.

I am sure in BB's public statment would be "it's league policy not to discuss these things"

But if this is so rampant, I am surprised that Hobbs (and Wilfork?) seemed to have no clue about this.

Sorry, no link. Heard it on the radio. They are rerunning the comment on their "Two Minute Drill" news update every 20 minutes or so. So their might be an audio link on the Sirius website.

They have been told to not comment, I imagine.
