Does anyone else here hope Specter says "it isn't over" today? - New England Patriots Forums

I love to watch blindly arrogant, power hungry, bribed politicians (and their corporate patrons) make idiots of themselves in public. Today should be good entertainment. He is facing a checkmate position. If he chooses to keep it up, at this point, watch the national pundits really turn on him the next day.

Here ya go, Senator Comcast - - make a legacy for yourself! I'll have my popcorn.

I'm wondering if the fact that neither Walsh not his attorney Levy will be at the press conference today tells you something about how their meeting went yesterday........

I just want it to be over with. If a *****storm follows the morons that used spygate as a publicity magnet and they want to continue to fling poo all over the place then let them. Something tells me Specter will find another angle to push his agenda once he realizes that the spygate train is done and we'll continue to see his ugly mug until the Comcast - NFL Network issue is resolved.

I'm pretty sure his legacy was written 40 some years ago. He called it the Magic Bullet Theory.

Exactly. Even the idiots at ESPN, by last night, can read the writing on the wall now.

I'm hoping Spector still can't and today performs to a level such that he eventually gets what he and Comcast deserve.

The trap is now set. Let's see if he walks right into it.

It's 31 against one, and Specter knows this.
You rarely have that type of advantage.
Why would he let it go?
Nobody will let it go.
Sorry guys, but it's a battle that is impossible to win.
There will be some fact sprinkled in with a lot of lies.
A lot of lies will be believed as fact.
There's just no way we'll ever be able to shout loud enough to stop that.

It definitely could help bring into sharp relief what a true farce this whole thing has been from the start, and that the driving forces behind it all along have been Comcast vs. the NFL + the media's lust for sensationalism. But on the other hand, it would still be a distraction to me as a fan and I'd rather just get back to football.
