If so, might as well close up the Globe sports section for good.the sports reporters was a tired act 10 yrs. ago. **** schaap was a good writer but barely tolerable on the show. the others have always been worthless nerds. as far as albom. he has that ridiculous haircut to hide his ridiculous spock ears. so, he's basically bitter at the world.

It's called don't shoot the messenger, and that's what one gets from a lot of people here, not all, but a lot, unless one just sings the all is good, all is great mantra.
Just to recap, here's what each reporter thought:
Bill Rhoden: Belichick should have been suspended in September. It's like a baseball player on steroids being named to the All-Pro team.
Mitch Albom: If the NFL said there were tapes from 2006 and 2007, and now there is 2000-2002, it's reasonable to assume 2003-05 were also cheating years. Agrees that Belichick should have been suspended before. Fine was a joke. Draft pick mitigated by the 49ers' pick. [Completely disregarded Goodell coming out after the Specter meeting and saying Belichick admitted to it from 2000]
Howard Bryant: If he wants to be taken seriously, especially in the eyes of the the NFLPA, Goodell needs to send the same message he sent when disciplining Pacman, Henry, Thurman, etc., because Belichick is management.
John Saunders: Management pays Goodell...

This is the longest %##$ pregame show in history!
By time the season starts the spin doctors will have the entire nation believing Belichick flew the planes into the World Trade Center and parachuted to safety just before impact.
The storm of factless columns is just overwhelming. At what point does Mr. Kraft start defending himself against being a permanent pinata?
This may sound ridiculous and too little too late, but what would you guys think of picketing in front of ESPN? I mean to get some publicity and force the truth to be told?
Obviously we'd need a spokesperson who is synced up with the facts no one wants to tell.
Is this stupid?
If you can get the truth from the one guy who knows it then you are on your way. ESPN doesn't know the truth any better than you or I. It's entirely speculation.
It is relevant to discuss (and watch) ESPN, dear LPF, because their programming impacts our team's reputation. Even if you don't pay any attention it doesn't change the fact that millions of others will watch, and believe their lies, innuendos and sanctimonious judgments are true and justified. If the Pats (and their legion of fans) don't present the other side, who will?Their OPINION means nothing to me and it will mean even less after TUESDAY. This entire thing was about a Rams walk-thru not about offensive of defensive signals. THERE IS NO TAPE OF A RAMS WALK-THRU. These people better be careful how far they take this thing. Don't take the Patriots silence for blindness. Bob Kraft is not going to stand there and let the NFL or the pathetic Media destroy what he has built. I don't understand why some of you continue to poison your minds with the filth that is ESPN. I have boycotted that piece of **** for over two years. I am a much more balanced and happy person today.

Anything that leads to criminal charges, yes they should all require suspension. Shootings, weapons charges, disturbing the peace (by throwing $100 bills at strippers and trying to make them give them back) and videotaping. Yep sounds fair across the board. Mmm mnn
