It's easy, and only takes a few moments."In retrospect, some things could have been done so that Spygate didn't have to drag on from September until now. It would have helped if Goodell had been clearer at the start in saying Belichick admitted spying on coaching in games since 2000. Given that revelation, Walsh would not have been caught in the media vise since Super Bowl week; he could have just told the league his tapes weren't anything new."

Because he looks like a moron, that's why. Oh wait, he already looked like a moron? You don't say. Poindexter and all the other nincompoops at ESPN have already started backpeddling like there is no tomorrow... and I'm loving every second of it.
I guess Emmitt has been rubbing off on him. Yeesh.
If this was spoken word, I'd give him a mulligan. Who among us don't create the occasional made-up word as we think on our feet?ESPN Cold hard facts, as response to the taping discourse (in which very little was actually stated), Clayton basically says "the tapes were already on something that was already there, so I think right now you're going to see the Patriots exonerfied and they're going to be, at least now, this spygate incident is over"
I tried, probably missed a few things, but my wife is looking at me rewinding like I lost my mind, so that's about the best I can repeat it.
Edited to add the grammar issues are correct, it was stammering at the end, he obviously didn't sound thrilled to admit it.

Wow. Just...wow.
Was it this guy :
or this guy:
He didn't make that up. He heard it from George Bush. But seriously folks, Clayton is an idiot. He comes across as scholarly because of the way he looks, but in reality he is dumber than a doorknob. As another example, how many times have you heard him use the phrase "Also too, ..."? It's not "also too", it's "also", or it's "too". One or the other. The way he says it is repetitive and redundant. (And if you don't get that that last phrase is tongue in cheek, you're also too dumber than a doorknob.)Yup, you heard it here first folks. Exonerfied. Clayton. Not only is this douchebag backing away from his harsh criticism, but he's doing it with words he makes up on the spot. Nice. Exonerfied. Pencil that one in for Webster 2008.
THAT DRIVES ME F'ING NUTS and he says it about a billion times in each report he does to boot! I also too D) hate how he says "ne-go-see-ate" instead of "ne-go-SHE-ate".As another example, how many times have you heard him use the phrase "Also too, ..."? It's not "also too", it's "also", or it's "too". One or the other.
Between their ad revenue and cable subscriptions one would think they could afford to do two or three takes if need be to prevent Emmitt-isms from entering the public domain in the age of you tube, tivo, and dvr's.He most certainly meant Exonerated. He most certainly said Exonerfied. I rewound my DVR and replayed it no less than 10 times to try and get the quotes right for Schmessy until my wife looked at me like I wasn't going to get dinner. Exonerfied. He was stumbling though much of it, nothing came out of his mouth cleanly, it was stammery and stuttery (hey if he can make up words so can I).

Exonerfied: To be exonerated of a crime or illegal action, yet still be vilified by the media and public.
How's that sound? I can think of a few examples, but none are worthy comparisons to NE's plight.
