Given the timing of this story, this is the last time I will read the Herald or connect to their website. To run this on the eve of the Super Bowl and only be able to reference a "source" is very weak. This ignores the basic tenets of Journalism 101. They ought to be ashamed of the decision to run this story. To me, that newspaper ceases to exist. It smacks of a move out of desperation.
Interesting, watching the national broadcast media tonight, most of the focus is on the game and game strategy. One show asked the following question, "Will 'spygate' even be an issue in 20 years should the Patriots win Super Bowl XLII?" Baldinger answered, "No, it's not really an issue now." Doc Walker stated that "it's now obvious that many teams were cheating in the past, and the advantage gained over opponents is negligible."
So be it. Unless someone really tries to run with this in pre-game broadcasts, I don't see this building at all. If they were to come up with a smoking gun, then it's a different story, but there's likely no smoking gun. This is all anecdotal. Someone is really jealous of the Pats.
My recommendation is to tune in to the game at 6:15pm EST Sunday night and enjoy it. Anything else is beyond comprehension.
