Mike asked Jimmy if he stole signals, Jimmy laughed and said of course he did as did everyone else who wanted to gain an edge.

the hosts were surprised. they asked repeatedly if he videotaped and he said he did. He said marty's assistant was the best in the business and howard mudd who was with the chiefs then and is now the o line coach of the colts is one of the best in the business.He said BB was wrong in continuing after the memo went out otherwise he used the camera himself 18 yrs ago and they used it in press boxes and all.
Hopefully football historians like Dr Z in si.com will notice this and dig further instead of just talking up the old time football as if it never happened before.

Talking abt pats he said BB came down to florida this summer and they went fishing and JJ asked BB that everyone thinks you guys are very good and a SB team and BB replies "Jimmy, I THINK we are good " ...

One of the most misrepresented facts about this issue is this "memo" that Goodell sent out. It was sent out Sept 6, 2006- last season, not this season. And all last season, Goodell never acted on it. Why should BB believe the newbie commish was suddenly going to take this non-issue seriously when it had been going on for 20+ years without league control or intervention? This was the biggest joke in league history, and I blame Goodell for being incompetent. He should have fined the Jets for leaking league business to the press, and sent out another of his "memos". Instead he caved into our hypocritical competitors and almost tarnished a legend by his own incompetence and lack of experience.

It's great what he said but it will get buried in the media while the Easterbrook columns of the world get hyped up.

Funny how much I hated that man when he was coaching. How times change.
