You know exactly what i mean. And although i appreciate you being difficult (since i am most of the time), i think you can contribute to this thread a lot better than that.

I'm still waiting for the investigation following this 1967 article that documents NFL Spying practices from 1955 and on.

Signal stealing, filming of walk throughs, trying to hide injured players...

By ignoring this and all the other instances that have been reported above, Goodell, Specter and everyone else are making it perfectly clear they have no problem with OTHER teams cheating - its simply a witch hunt aimed at the Patriots

I am insinuating they get calls in every game.

I do appreciate you believing in me and raising the bar of expectations. I will work hard to achieve that standard. Very Belichickian.

What about Don Shula's actions in the infamous Mud Bowl?

To this day, former coach Walt Michaels still believes Don Shula ordered the field to remain uncovered during heavy rains in the days leading up to the '82 title game. The sloppy field neutralized the Jets' superior team speed, and they couldn't muster any offense in the 14-0 loss, a debacle that will be remembered for Richard Todd's five interceptions.

"There were some things that went on," Michaels recalled, referring to the alleged shenanigans by Shula. "The league rule is to cover the field, and it wasn't. What else has to be said?

"I laugh at it now," he continued. "It's a good thing (Roger) Goodell wasn't the commissioner then or he would've fined Shula."

This was Spygate, a quarter-century earlier.

How 'bout the Jets' filming in the SAME game that the Pats got caught?
That was like an "Emmily Latella" moment for some. It really gets me how those pics were going all over the net.

"See, here's proof that the Pats were filming..........what's that? That's a Jets
camera man?.....oh...Never mind."

He's obviously breaking the same rule. There's clearly pictures of it.
And nobody cares. What's up with that?

I want an investigation into the stupidity of ESPN analysts.
I'm looking right at you, Tom Jackson, Merril Hoge, Mark Schlereth, & Steve Young.

How about this one. . .Steelers team doctor caught in steroids ring.

Notice it's the team doctor from the early mid 2000's, not the one from the 70s. This might explain why Joey Porter was such an ass.

that story is a year old...so what became of it?

RIVA Pats Fan · 02-17-2008, 05:25 PM

Good question. Seems like it got buried. The guy doesn't seem all that different than a Brian McNamee and notice, he was with them when the won the SB two years ago.
