Technically the Times broke the story first. The Herald just broke it in Boston.

That's all well and good, but: what story? There WAS no story, unless there is another 'source' still out there with this video evidence. I've said it in a few threads here, but the Patriots should absolutely pursue this: get some lawyers involved, and force the Herald, Tomase, his editor, whoever, to divulge the source of this Rams walkthrough nonsense. Because as it stands right now, as of three months after the initial story broke, the only 'source' has proven to have stolen tapes that the Patriots had already admitted to creating (and, thus, were already penalized for).
I repeat: as of right now, the Herald story from February 2nd is absolute garbage, it's defamatory, it's slanderous, it's irresponsible and malicious journalism, and some heads should roll.
