Thanks to both.
He knows Norv very well. These guys have a history of going against each other for many years on different teams. He seems to indicate that there will be nothing they haven't seen before.
BB continues to dodge the video questions.
"I was just coaching the game...Just trying to coach the team...I don't have any comments on league matters...whatever they decide we'll accept..."
Did anyone else besides me interpret this quote as an admission of guilt?
Usually when BB says nothing it's because the reporter asked a stupid question and usually he sounds bored or makes a wise @ss comment. This was different he sounds uncomfortable.
When I first heard about this my thoughts were no big deal Miami according to sources had our line calls last year down there, basically everybody does it. But hearing BB today made me think he was nervous about it. Not sure what the NFL does in these situations, one theory was the Pats would lose a draft choice. That would be typical if we lost a pick and the Jets, Redskins and Bills didn't after tampering with our players in the past.
He didn't sound nervous so much as uncomfortable that they would even ask him out of the gate about something they know he wouldn't comment on. Same way he sounds when the regular mediots ask their inane quesitons about injuries or game plans in the daily PC's. He has an understanding with these guys, which is why he is generally so relaxed and more open with them. Glen must have felt a momentary need to "ask the tough question" to boost his non existent media cred. The way he was joking with Fred at the end, I don't think Bill is terribly concerned about anything today.

In total about 5 questions before the subject was changed. A few dumb ones at the end by Smerlas, to which BB responded "I haven't done advanced scouting in years."
