We are happy to help out anytime, Mike! Although, you need to spell it CORRECTLY, ok?

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/09/08/martzs-2008-statement-hasnt-changed/

".........But the Martz statement posted Tuesday by ESPN.com is identical to the statement he issued in May 2008. The full text was copied and pasted from an article by Mike Reiss (then of the Boston Globe; the link to his story is now dead) to the website PatsFan.com, and portions of it appeared in a May 2008 story from the Associated Press......."

You are all welcome. My efforts are not going unnoticed. Peter King is the only one who seems not to get my emails and other forms of barrage.

He spelled it wrong

venecol · Sep 9, 2015

Looks like Florio is dissecting the EspitN article paragraph by paragraph. I'm sure he won't be the only one.

reflexblue · Sep 9, 2015

OK Mike how about a little piece on the fact that taping signals is legal and always has been.

borg · Sep 9, 2015

That's awesome!!!
Who say's OBSESSION is not a virtue.
MARCH ON PatsFans........to victory....and beyond

No kidding. I want someone with prominence to re-print the bleacher report article from 2009.

I agree we are [until we start posting our pictures] and it should be mentioned that we're realistic unabashed homers

I sent Florio the following tweets. Hopefully, he can expand on this.

@ProFootballTalk 1: Is it currently ok for teams to film sideline signals as long as it's from booth where you cannot film the clock?

raduray ‏@raduray 10h10 hours ago
@ProFootballTalk 2: If so, it’s a stupid limitation as it's easy for intern to correlate signals to all 22 film. No need to see the clock.

This is beginning to take on a pattern isn't it?
1.Pats Fans (meaning all Pats fans not just PatsFans) poke holes in some anti-Pats garbage article
2. starts an email, tweet campaign
3. gets called homers
4. then some media looks into an realizes we're right
5. articles appear attacking the garbage article

RDS11 · Sep 9, 2015

More than anything, it shows how bad journalistic integrity has become. When fans on a website forum can dig and find facts better than paid journalists, it's pretty sad.

But that being said, we're the best fans on Earth, we know our subject better than anyone else !

Joker · Sep 9, 2015

Wait until someone starts researching MY investigation into Roger Goodell's history of pathological lying....it's all archived with links and PROOF right here. They just haven't listened or bothered but NOW it's a viable news option. When some bright journalist sees that I am 100% correct about Goodell's claim to be an NFL intern FIRST, then a Jet intern, perhaps I'll be contacted for the names of the people I received letters from stating Goodell was a HUGE Jet fan and bully in high school. Another prodigious lie by Goodell.."I was a Redskins fan and lived in western NY"...total fabrication.

Then the resurrection of the "I am a lawyer" lie from the 2009 ESPN interview...from there his lies snowball. Hopefully this snowball becomes an avalanche and buries this rotten, ignorant scumbag for good

BradyFTW! · Sep 9, 2015

I'm kinda glad he spelled it wrong. Spelling it right = massive influx of anti-Pats PFT trolls.

Here's the thing:

We, as fans, shouldn't be the ones doing this. This should be getting done by the Patriots. And, had they done it in 2007, things would be a lot easier today. Instead, we, as fans, are stuck picking up after Kraft, since he can't be bothered to.

He gave us the wellsreportincontext site. Then he folded his tent. Essentially everything else, in both 2007 and today, has been fan driven.

Have you tries Florio or barstool? Somebody on here has a barstool connection can't remember who. Would be a great start. Our best bet is somebody hacks Goodell's email and releases all the corruption. Cmon anonymous hackers...

newenglandsports11 · Sep 9, 2015

Welp Florio has been helpful to us for the majority of the time. He, Simmons, Reiss and Curran should team up for a MMQB like site. News breaker, columnist, reporter and analyst. Would be a good start

That is because the fans care about the issue, we care about the team's reputation (the "cheating" allegations), we care about the player's reputations (especially Brady's), we care about the team's future success (which will clearly be negatively affected by the loss of draft picks in both cases), and more than anything, we care about the legacy of this team that we love so much and its players.

However, apart from lawsuits like TB and the players union initiated, nobody can do anything except for the Patriots owners.

And it is hard to conclude anything other than they don't care about those things. For us, it is our passion. For them, it is an investment, dollars and cents.
