demanding that BB "apologize to his opponents", because his tactics "cost them jobs". This clown thinks he's Bob Whatshisface writing about Watergate. Memo to man with the middle name: you're a sports reporter writing schlock for the consumption of beef jerky eating beer schlubbers like myself. Come down from the mountain and leave the stone tablets behind. This kind of public sanctimony usually comes from senators with wide stances. Wouldn't be surprised at all to find MDS crouching in a men's room somewhere. And hey, Florio: keep spinning the Pats news. I'm sure it's making you money. Just use a sieve next time to siphon off all the bull$h!t.

Ha, what a retard...who is this guy? BB's "tactics" did not cost them their jobs. Their ineptitude and lack of talent did...

What a freaking dumbass. They could of saved their jobs by playing better with 5 minutes left in the 1st quarter and on. The camera and the man were long gone before someone dropped a house on the wicked witch of the east. 31 points worth,still unaccounted for.
So BB would sound like this, "I apologize to Marty Schottenheimer(sp?) for sucking in the playofs year after year, I apologize to Herm Edwards for not knowing how to run a clock, and Dave Wandstadt for not knowing when to run and when to pass, I apologize to the Bills for asking them to take on Drew Bledsoe and having a bunch of head coaches I can't remember, I apologize to Peyton Manning for having my players intercept his passes as he choked in the early 2000s, I apologize to Donavan McNabb for making him puke in the huddle during the last minutes of the Super Bowl, to Jon Kasey for letting him kickoff out of bounds in the last minutes of a Super Bowl, to Kurt Warner throwing a ball to Ty Law instead of his own receiver, to Oakland's defense for failing to stop Brady in the final minutes and OT in the snow (we had infrared cameras to see through the snow). Anybody I leave out?"

We're not "whining" we're mocking writers and clowns like you who don't know the game of football, now or in its historical context. Really, go back to curling. Football is over your head.
Now that the entire pro football community is atwitter over the allegations/proof of cheating by the New England Patriots, we're hearing more rumors on the NFL grapevine regarding the extent to which this stuff went on.
In addition to the rumor we heard on Wednesday that the Pats were putting microphones on defensive players in 2006 to pick up audibles and offensive line calls, we're now hearing that there has been a rumor for years that the Patriots have inserted a radio in the helmet of one or more defensive players for the purposes of direct communications with the coaching staff.
Such a tactic, if true, would be an even more significant violation of the rules, in our opinion. As several readers have pointed out, the only thing illegal about the signal-stealing issue is the use of the electronic equipment to record the images. Nothing prevents a team from using low-tech means to track signals and connect them to the defensive coverages used. It's simply harder to do it via the naked eye, especially since the video can be used later to confirm the specific signals given, if/when the team with the video is preparing to face the same opponent in the future -- or a member of that coaching staff who might use the same signals in a new city.
So the only competitive advantage is that it's a better way of doing something that already can be done.
In contrast, using radios in the helmets of defensive players gives the team access to something that folks who follow the rules simply can't use.
Keep in mind that this new twist is only a rumor, one of many that are now on the NFL grapevine as this story continues to percolate. Still, given the events of the last 48 hours, it's hard not to rule out anything at this point.
What's next? PFT reports that the Patriots are plotting to take over the world? Give me a break. If the Patriots had radios in their defensive players' helmets, everyone else would've known about it. And ratted them out, because that would be an unfair advantage (unless, of course, every team in the league is doing it too).
