Fisher let on that some of the evidence goes back to last yr and that there may even have been IT guys involved.
IT guys? What does that mean?

Apparently it's the same guy who got chased out of Lambeau, all the while cussing out the team security. Maybe felt invincible.
None of us yet know how it all went down, but, yeah, I'd have gone nutso trying to get away with the tape if I were him.
Probably woulda got a nice bonus if I'd managed to get away from security and destroy the tape or whatnot.
No, but a few times he was seen mouthing "their bringing 6", and astonishingly, Brady took even MORE NOTES while waiting around in the pocket for Randy to get open.:bricks:This is such a f*cking mountain out of a molehill. I would be saying that about any other team, including the Colts. Did that videocameraman make those reads on the field with Brady finding recievers?
No silly, last lost to the Colts, the canned excuses were:I'd bet the Colts did the same thing to us. These past games it seemed like they knew when we were going to run everytime.
I have a bad feeling about where this is going. F*ck me, I really do.
If it's just that guy on the sidelines with his little camera trying to decipher defensive calls, that's one thing. If this is mic'd up players and all that other NSA sh*t, Bill could be gone by October. Not trying to be a Chicken Little, but if this is a serious thing with multiple different angles on getting those signals, I don't think that Kraft would have any choice.
Get real and stick to the issue at hand. It is not Fisher's integrity in question here.
I understand you guys are blinded by the homer glasses but this is a far bigger issue than you seem to realizie.
This is an embarassment to the game and there will be a price to pay, not only in penalties but in the reputation of the Patriots.
This firestorm has only begun.
I have a hard time believing that you all actually believe that EVERY TEAM sends cameramen to the opponents sideline. Trying to scout teams, players, playcalls, tendancies, etc..., that's one thing, but potentially stealing frequency chatter and directly violating an NFL rule? That's another. If other teams went THAT FAR, don't you think they would take the high road?? Pats perhaps, WENT TOO FAR.You are so CORRECT in your statement that this thing is getting way out of control. All of a sudden, Fischer, Polian etc know nothing about ever trying to steal signs. The game will NEVER be forfeited. This is the biggest fictional thing that is floating out there. That ain't going to happen. BB may be suspended several games.....but that is unlikely...........Giving up a second rounder and perhaps a late rounder...and a whole bunch of fines......is VERY LIKELY to happen if they are indeed found to be in the wrong....again. I think what bothers me most here is the ignorance and arrogance of BB and/or his coaching staff to "go back to the well" after getting nabbed on this once before..........with supposedly the same jackoff working the camera.....I mean seriously....how stupid do you have to be?
I think it is becoming obvious that the league has a little more than just video taped evidence. Fisher let on that some of the evidence goes back to last yr and that there may even have been IT guys involved. He made no mention whether they were PAT employees. But that angle is also being looked into. The rest of the interview is scheduled to air later tonight.
This is going to break huge this week.
The photos of this Pat employee are now on teams MB around the league. A jet fan from NJ sent the commissioner the photos of the camera man directly filming the Jet staff while the Pats were on O and he stopped filming when the Jets were on O. ESPN has recieved the same copies and several AFC teams have removed them from threads.
Jet fan sites are posting them everwhere and the pictures are quite clear and clearly identify Mr. Estrella and his sound man next to him. Moreover, the audioman was supposed to have an orange jacket on and he removed it and out it in a backpack with several HD audio recording equipment.
not true. You will see that as soon as tomorrow. Estrella was found on the Jet sideline according to league security. This was confirmed to all competition committee members and the commissioner. The audio and video evidence matches this man to the the footage.you stupid f
that image came from HERE
the cameraman--Estrella--was on the PATRIOTS sideline
go away
You mean the guy whose only claim to fame (as an average offensive lineman) was blocking for John Elway and Terrell Davis when they won two Super Bowls by cheating on the salary cap by paying those two guys $29M in deferred, off the books compensation?Have you guys seen what Mark Schlereth (ex-Bronco and long time Patriot-hater on ESPN) said?
He says that this is blatant cheating and it tarnishes the Patriots Super Bowl Trifecta. It can be seen on ESPN video. This seems horrible...this is America's Team! On 9/11! I haven't felt this sick since 2mins left in the AFCCG.

here are the exact photos sent to Fox, sportsline/cbs, NBC ABC and the NFL this afternoon.
The man in the dark shirt and beige shorts is confirmed to be Mr Estrella and the man next to him is the audio man found to have his orange vest in a napsack. Also Mr Estrella was supposed to have had a red vest on and he did not.
The evidence on Mr Estrella's camera is now in Goodell office and all reports are that BB was behind the idea of taping. Estrella also has told league officials he has done this many times since 2004.
