I remember back during Spygate, towards the end of the year a poster on ESPN forums that had only 1 post prior wrote a long post explaining all the details of Spygate. It was widely believed at the time that the author was Jonathan Kraft. The post was subsequently removed/deleted and unfortunately neither I nor anyone else was smart enough to copy the contents.
The post went into great detail over everything that happened after spygate first broke. One of the things I remember clearly (from the post) was him saying that Goodell was meeting with BB, Kraft and others a few days after the spygate game and BB wanted to give a press conference explaining what exactly happened. Paraphrasing here, and Goodell responded something to the effect of "shut up and don't say a word otherwise it's going to be a lot harder on you". Basically saying that Goodell threatened them with much worse punishment if they spoke publicly about spygate. This was the posters (J. Kraft?) explanation for why no one from the Patriots said anything about spygate that year.
It was very long post and explained why the Pats were so silent during spygate. It seemed very plausible and believable and made a lot of sense. I wish to god I had saved it.

Was it the one by NEinsider? We were all trying to figure out if it was real or not....
Here's a link to that, if it is what you're referring to. If not, "never mind"
