It's easy, and only takes a few moments.If I'm Kraft, at this point I'm openly threatening to launch my own investigation and dig up as much dirt on other teams doing the same as I can. Basically to say "if you want to set the precedent that this is a big deal when we both know that it isn't, then I hope that you're prepared for the fallout when I reveal that 20 other teams do the same thing".
Of course, this is probably one of many, many reasons why I'm not Kraft.
I hope that the NFL is spending as much energy trying to find out who leaked the "info" of the investigation to "Mort", so they can fire them.
Of course, many will still claim cheating and scandal but as they say "haters gonna hate" and I don't really care about them.
If true the media as a collective will definitely say 'whoops, we made a mistake. We were wrong and pushed outrage, smeared people incorrectly". Seriously, can't wait for the entire gang at The Globe to do this
Best that we'll get out of the hysterical mass of illogic known as the media is a 'rationalizing, largely ignore, move on to the next 'outrage'' tact. The rare few who stood up to the hysteria (not talking the long list of players who did) can then justifiably toot their horn. (Mike Reiss, congratulations, you went from a solid and reasonable source to just another media dolt).
hey, you make some good points, but Brady could show up this afternoon with angel's wings and levitate and we'd still be screwed in the court of public opinion. That's never gonna change.Celebration by us now would be as premature as it was by the haters yesterday morning.
I do think Belichick has had a successful day. But the organization, and its star QB, still have a bulls-eye on them. There's really nothing to be all that happy about other than Belichick's believability and credibility today. Which is a small victory when we're getting our asses handed to us in the court of public opinion. Let's just hope that the news continues to be better and it continues to come out.
Well, that explains this then..

Just watched @Patriots Bill Belichick’s news conference. He did a great job—smart, concise, truthful!

Until I read it in a responsible publication I am not accepting any news re: NFL.
The Economist? Foreign Affairs?
1) why wasn't this handled as a quiet, internal league matter, as these potential violations usually are? Why was someone in the media notified and by whom?
