I know, I know. Par for the course for ESPN. But more lies and propaganda.

Put up this post in another thread, seems relevant here:

So let's go ahead and list the factual inaccuracies in this story:

1. It states that filming signals is illegal. This is not true.
2. It states that Ernie Adams has a photographic memory. Not only is there no way for the author to know this, but it is generally understood that there's no such thing as a photographic memory.
3. It claims that the Spygate tapes were destroyed in September/October 2007, which is weird since months later the supposedly destroyed tapes were screened for a room full of media members.
4. The author's story has dramatically changed re: what happened in the owners' meeting after that season. On the BS Report, he said that the owners wanted the tapes destroyed. Now he's claiming that the owners were pissed that the tapes were destroyed.

I'm sure I'm missing some, anyone else want to jump in?

It really isn't worth the critical thinking skills.

ESPN employs a bunch of liars. Period. They have 0 journalist integrity.

Come on, people. We're talking about stealing signs -- something happening in plain sight. This is 2007 -- it was recorded on a hand held camera with an internal disk. It was not transmitted to anyone during the game.

The Patriots broke a rule and were severely punished, but they are really overstating this.

And the few non-liars and people with integrity are shown the door (Simmons) or muzzled (Bruschi) or you have stuff that just happened to Reiss.

NFL has officially become a circus. I know I've said I wanted to wait until Belichick and Brady retire before considering not watching the NFL anymore, but, I don't know, perhaps not watching the NFL this season is the right move. Looks like I am going to be thinking hard the next couple of days. Is going to be a tough decision no matter what because I love football so much.

They truly are a joke.

Zo and Bertrand are talking about this right now.

Don Van Nata Jr is a liar. Just like Mort.
