An earlier post said it is against League rules for one team to pass on info to another about an upcoming opponent.
On the TV telecast tonight, there was a citing of an acknowledgment from Pennington that Mangini showed him/gave him the Pats scouting info on him. Wouldn't that document be Patriot's property, and therefore wouldn't Mangini taking it from the Pats and providing it to the Jets be not only against League rules, but criminal?
If a person did this in regular private enterprise, it would be a crime. I don't see why the NFL would be different.
Any insights?
