Matt Walsh's lawyer asks NFL to protect his client on Spygate tapes
By DAVE GOLDBERG, AP Football Writer
February 15, 2008
NEW YORK (AP) -- The lawyer for former New England Patriots employee Matt Walsh said his client is willing to turn over videotapes he made for the team if the NFL guarantees Walsh protection from lawsuits or other legal action.
Attorney Michael Levy said that to date, the NFL's initial proposals are not sufficient protection for Walsh, who is said to have taped the St. Louis Rams' walkthrough practice the day before they played the Patriots in the 2002 Super Bowl. The Patriots won 20-17.
"Under our proposal, Mr. Walsh is only protected if he in good faith is truthful. And he will be," Levy told The Associated Press on Friday in a telephone interview from his office at the Washington law firm of McKee Nelson.

but, where are they? walsh has been saying for weeks that he has tapes. this isnt a breaking story. walsh needs to (Please be quiet - edited), and show the tapes to the nfl, and stop dickin around. im getting sick of this whole thing.
SHOW US THE TAPES WALSH, OR LEAVE THE F'N COUNTRY
sorry, i feel better now
Matt has to PROVE, PROVE, that whatever footage he has in his possession that the following occurred:
1. Prove The PATS Told him to video tape the footage
2. Prove that Bill and/or staff had knowledge of the footage
3. Prove that the Pats instructed Matt to film the footage
the Pats will easily say the following:
1. "We did not authorize this filiming by our staff"
2. "These tapes were recorded by Matt Walsh and he acted alone"
3. "The PATS had no knowledge of these tapes, nor ever granted Matt Walsh permission to record this footage.
4. No one in the PATS organization authorized nor instructed Matt to video tape this footage
5. THe PATS never knew of these tapes because they never knew Matt was recording the footage on his own....and for Mat Walsh to keep these tapes, could have been for revenge and personal gain....alal secretly record behind the PATS' back, then keep the footage to say the PATS told him to record the footage, thus keeping it for blackmail.....again, disgruntled employee...why wait 7 years? Matt is toast!
So, the Burden of Proof is strictly on Matt Walsh.... He can't simply say, "The Pats told me to video this and that and this and that, here are the tapes to prove it" , because the PATS will deny any knowledge of it, and say Mat Walsh filmed footage without any knowledge of the PATS organization...
Bring it on....Matt Walsh will be the fool on the hill!

Well said, mrperrino. Unless Walsh has actual proof that he was told to film something, I don't see what this will do other than lead the same dumb****s to more of their own conclusions that facts don't back up.

It may come down to testimony under oath and penalty of perjury. All bets are off then.

I disagree. If he has tapes and was a Patriots employee, the assumption will be he did it on behalf of the Patriots. I don't care what they say, no one will believe otherwise. He doesn't have to prove ****. Simply producing the tapes, people will believe the Patriots did it.

I tend to agree. The Pats saying Walsh was acting alone is a ridiculous defense.
Walsh's attorney: Walsh has tapes
