Surprised you guys give me so much credit as to not even deny this.
Not going to be on any of the sites yet, as I just heard it on SNY.
But there are confirmed reports that the league has been investigating the situation with the playcalls, and are now calling on Bellicheck to testify to the league...
Something about a possible suspension was mentioned...
Has your father stopped beating your mother? Yes or no?
I have one word for you...SOUR GRAPES!!! you really are all LOSERS!!
That was when they said Saban got the field audio and matched up the audio to the audible calls. I guess it is legal to do that. Like someone else said, I don't know what signs we'd even be taping as the playcalls are largely radioed in now - I thought they were anyway.I recall their was some hubbub about the fins stealing our signs last season. No punishment ensued. So if this is about signs, this is a load of crap.
Yeah, that stuff's all crap, too. I expect teams to do everything within the rules, or even in the margins of the rules, to win. If you guys piped noise in or turned the heat up, and got away with it, all the power to you.You guys sound exactly like Colts fans when Pat's fanss were moaning about the 'piped in noise' and 'heat on in the dome' theories. I don't believe any of this signal stealing crap for a second just like I know we didn't pipe in noise and didn't turn the heat up.

hard to believe that the patriots would stoop to this kind of level. almost on par with that baseball team a while back who had the elaborate sign stealing setup in the centerfield scoreboard. they were relaying pitches to the batter through a series of different sounds.. hopefully they didn't do it, but if they did it would be truly embarrassing.
ahh but he wasn't in the press box now was he"Though no disciplinary action by the league ever resulted, the Patriots last year were reportedly the impetus of a sternly written letter from the league office to all teams, reminding them that it was illegal for an advance scout or personnel official to bring a video recording device of any kind into the press box for the purposes of taping a potential opponent's signals or play-calling gestures from the sideline."

apparently the patriots were caught doing the same thing in green bay (according to ESPN). packer representatives said the person removed from the jets game was the same person removed from lambough.
