Opinion: NEW TWIST: videogate! - New England Patriots Forums

Here's the newest twist in this crazy saga...

This past offseason BB confided in Mangini, while having some beers laughing about the media's obsession with their handshakes, that he was worried he was running out of ideas to keep his players motivated. Mangini confided in BB that he regretted getting himself involved with the lowly Jets. Then it struck them, oddly enough, at the exact same time. They decided to have a little fun with the league, while at the same time Mangini was giving something back to his former mentor.

They conspired to create a controversy that would cause the masses to make unfounded accusations that the patriots cheated and question all their past wins. BB knew this would motivate his players to all new levels. Sheer brilliance! So the plan was set in action for week one, the Jets would report the patriots to the league for illegal placing of video cameras.

The commissioner, Roger Goodell, has stated that the league is seriously investigating this matter. He is adamant that these two will not get away with making a mockery of the league. Possible penalties include banning the Jets and Patriots from free agency for 3 years and/or stripping both clubs of their first and second round draft picks for the next 5 years.

I can only describe this as a shockingly awful turn of events. BB and EM have brought shame to themselves, their franchises, and the entire league.

Sorry, just bored and tired of hearing about it.

Yea after hearing about it the first time I brushed it off and said Mangin's a loser. Never would have guessed it could grow to such huge proportions.
