Another ESPN story removed [merged: Clayton's Anti-Patriot bias] - New England Patriots Forums

I saw a link to a story by Clayton titled: Patriots Got Off Easy

Now, I don't find it. Am I drunk.

It's here:

NFL penalty for Belichick, Patriots is far too light
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/story?id=3018407

Basically argues that since we're so good at stockpiling picks, we already had an extra 1st and extra 3rd in 2008, whereas a suspension might have made us lose a game and thus cost us the SB (tiebreaker, etc.)

I kind of the think the Pats would easily trade the pick back for a game or two suspension. The level to which the league is spooked by his presence on the sidelines is just awe inspiring.

Why did I even want to read that? I am drunk.

Perhaps someone should remind that *****hole of his Dolphins stealing signals story from LAST YEAR in which he's all, "That's football!!"

Stupid POS.

What could the punishment be?
Goodell must come down hard on this one because he clearly has evidence. ESPN has reported that Goodell is considering severe sanctions, including the possibility of docking the Patriots "multiple draft picks." That could mean a combination of a second-rounder and something else, maybe a fifth-rounder. The commissioner could push the penalty over two years, but he can't treat this lightly by just taking away a second-day draft choice. The Patriots are good. They had only two draft choices -- a first- and a second-round pick -- make the team this season. Fining them just a fourth-round choice wouldn't hurt them much.

Goodell does what he thought he would, but now it wasn't enough. Brilliant.

Read this disgusting article that just came out, titled 'NFL penalty for Belichick is far too light'.
http://myespn.go.com/conversation/st...07&section=nfl

Then, read this article last year about the Dolphins/Pats, where Clayton says 'Teams are always trying to steal signs and signals off other teams. That's just football'.

I know. This dumb***** doesn't have an email address posted, or I'd have already sent him a message calling his biased ass out.

Please forward both articles to him and let him know how much of a hypocrite he is or post on a blog if he has one.
