SMOKING GUN: URSA's PICTURE...What it else showed

Re: URSA's PICTURE... What it showed

Did you send this to Tomase or Reiss? I know they monitor this board, but the title of this thread may not grab their attention. An e-mail may do the trick.

Yes send it to them. It's gotta be somebody with some seniority on the board though I would think so it carries more weight and is taken seriously. DaBruinz, Pats1, Box, PatsNUTme or somebody.

Note: If I have not mentioned you as a prominent name on this board and you feel slighted I apologize and was just thinking of the guys with seniority.

Unless I am mistaken, any one shooting video on the sidelines is supposed to have a bright orange vest on... The guy in the picture was identified as a JETS EMPLOYEE, not a NY MEDIA EMPLOYEE.

How do we come to the conclusion that it is a Jets employee.

He probably is, but for this to gain legs you guys need to find out his name and who he works for.

I just emailed the hype to Florio -- see if he runs with it, truth or not.

Here's what I wrote:


Hey there,

Long time reader, first time writer.

I'm a Pats fan from MA and here's the local twist on the story. One of the members at patsfans.com posted an image from the game, supposedly identifying the Pats cameraman. The photo is featured prominently here: http://touchdown.org/

However, since its been debunked that the cameraman was actually on the Pats sideline then who is this guy? Is it a Jets employee doing taping?

Despite the fact they're not "stealing signals" with the camera, are the Jets violating EXACTLY the same regulation that the Pats are guilty of?

Per a NFL article: http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d802456c2&template=with-video&confirm=true

1. Page 105 of the Game Operations manual says: "No video recording devices of any kind are permitted to be in use in the coaches' booth, on the field, or in the locker room during the game." It later says: "All video shooting locations must be enclosed on all sides with a roof overhead."

2. And, a memo from Ray Anderson, NFL head of football operations, to head coaches and GMs on Sept. 6, 2006 said: "Video taping of any type, including but not limited to taping of an opponent’s offensive or defensive signals, is prohibited on the sidelines, in the coaches’ booth, in the locker room, or at any other locations accessible to club staff members during the game."

As to why the guy is not pointing the Camera on the Pats coaches when the screen was captured.

Since Brady is clearly on the field, he obviously has a few moments to kill before being needing to turn the camera cross field and tape the Patriots defensive signals.

FYI we know the league already has the pic.

What we don't know is who the guy is or who he works for.

I am sure the league is well aware of who he is and who he works for.

He probaly is, but for this to gain legs you guys need to find out his name and who he works for.

It came out on JetsInsider that the guy is a Jets Employee and he supposedly has received death threats.....

I've sent it to Bill Simmons and Mike Reiss for their input. I am not going to assume any more than I have...If its true, and he is a Jets employee, then Jets are in violation of the rules as well as the Pats. As I said, it was my understanding that the people with the cameras have to have the orange vest on and such.

I missed that thread!

JI is an excellent source.

The thing that is good is that the time is clear in the picture so it would be easy to cue up a tape of the game to make sure this was not photoshopped. Patsfans to the rescue! Let's see if anything actually happens....

Re: SMOKING GUN : URSA's PICTURE... What it else showed

I want to say that i think you are all doing a great job with this.

More needs to be done. We need to send this pic out to anybody and everybody that will take it.

But how can we be so sure that it isn't photoshopped?

Here are two screenshots of him shooting across the field while the Pats are on D. I also noticed him walking around not shooting anything while the Pats are on O. He is in the top right corner of both pics.

Got it DVDr'ed. Go to 5:22 in the first. Pat's ball at around the Jet's 20. Brady throws an incomplete pass to Welker on the right side. After that, as Brady is making line adjustments at 5:17 the tv footage starts real close to the players and you can see this guy with a green shirt in the background as the footage pans back to wide screen.
