From what little i have heard on ESPN radio during my drive is that

"SI should be ashamed fro releasing this story during the SB, they should have waited for Ray to retire etc....."

LOL ESPN is filled with jerks.

Memo to the guys who are saying that this thread has anything to do with the AFCCG:

It's about Rodney, Spygate, and the double standard. Jeezus...

I absolutely guarantee to every one of you that...

I have never EVER failed a single drug test for ANY substance for which there is currently no existing drug test available for my employer to ask me to take in the first place.

Isn't that what Ray-Ray just said, cutting through the BS?

Dear Antler Breath:

The "I never failed a test" line will work for a while. Then it's gonna be Oprah time.

Sincerely,

Lance

Anyway, we all know how annoying it was when a big deal was made
out of nothing (spygate), so lets not be hypocrites.

Ravens beat us fair and square. Congrats to them. Lets move on.
This has nothing to do with the Pats taking a steamy dump on the 50 yard line in the AFCCG. It has more to do with the media frenzy over Rodney and Spygate.

summation of the "issue"

24 hours before SB42 an unknown hack reporter at a rag of a newspaper (the Herald) fabricated a story about the Patriots taping a Rams Super Bowl walkthrough.

result: It was the lead story on all sports news stations and websites, even on national news sites. ESPN added a "crawl" to the bottom of the screen on all of their stations promising up-to-the-minute breaking details.



5 years later a trusted and established sports journalism source (SI) breaks a story about PED usage and reports that taped phone calls support the allegation.

result: crickets chirping

I know full well this won't be received well in this forum but i really don't get how ruining the Super Bowl for Raven fans makes up for what happened to Patriot fans in 2007 and beyond, and i have a friends who are Raven fans who have screamed "spygate, spygate" for years. What The Boston Herald, ESPN, and A-Hole Specter did then was disgusting and disgraceful and i realy don't wish that on any fans, especially when they are trying to enjoy a rare moment for their team's. Rather than take pleasure in it fans should be screaming against this kind crap so that the media will be warned against it going forward. I realize that is really idealistic and unlikely to happen but once again i just don't see how ruining the SB for other fans makes up for the crap that we went through. I don't take pleasure in seeing other people have their day in the sun ruined simply because it happened to the Patriots. let the fans of the ravens and 49ers enjoy their weekend, their teams earned it and they should enjoy it.

If Patriot fans really hate what happened then their anger would have been best channelled by putting the piece of sh.t that is the Boston Herald out of business. More than any other organization they are the ones responsible for the fiasco around that Super Bowl. Had the editors at The herald done their job the story would never have hit the press, It was crap and a good editor would not have let them run it.
