Would it really surprise you if he was? The guy screamed at his team to break Flutie's leg, he is capable of anything.

Good lord...you cannot be serious.

People suspect Polian may be behind some competition committee pressure, and possibly also behind some information leaks. Given his longstanding and widely-known hatred for New England, his own paranoid, bullying personality, and his own consistent effort to act in his own team's interest, I don't know how you could wonder why some are suspicious...

Look, Belichick broke the rules, and he's been punished. Polian is not on the radar. Anything else is baseless speculation that you can include with all the other speculation on some of the supposed things the Patriots have done. Many simply don't let facts get in the way of hysteria. It's way overblown.

BTW, you seem like a smart guy, why do you come here especially at this time? You really don't need to answer that . . . . We already know.

It's because he was behind the competition committee changing two rules in the past that negated some of the Patriots' strengths. One of his cohorts on he committee, Jeff Fischer, openly whined about the Patriots.

If you want to know how the actual Patriots players feel about Polian's influence and pressure on the competition committee, watch Tedy Bruschi after the championship game a couple years ago. He specifically makes mention of Polian and his rule changes. Bruschi had Polian precisely in mind during the game.

speculation, speculation, speculation. Now there's a difference between a team getting caught red handed (ie, Patriots) and angry fans making unproven speculation and accusations without any proof (ie, the imaginary "Piped in crowd noise, the scortching desert like temperatures in the dome during the AFCCG, or Polian secretly taking over the competition committee to do his own personal bidding)
