Penalties being considered for the Pats - UPDATED 1/1/2020

Hyped · Dec 11, 2019

One major difference from 2007 is technology.

Back in '07...I didn't even have a smart phone yet.

Today, if the Pats wanted to hire me to steal signals...it would be SOOOOOOOOO EASY. Just buy me a lower bowl ticket...and I'd tape an entire sideline on my phone from the stands...down distance signal defensive alignment coaches lips....etc...and all in Hi Def.

It is why I am convinced that this is nothing...if we had a nefarious cheating operation going on...we would only need 5-6 guys with iPhones, 5-6 tickets, maybe cash payments by 3rd parties, and a shared cloud account for uploading all videos to over VPN or by using a Tor browser.... You would need NSA to stop that ****....

Hell if they really want to go all cloak n dagger forget the VPN, I'd put it on a 10TB flash drive and sneakernet it over.

Tor browser is a good call.

He is a 1st rate moron. Zero common sense. Zero ability to be impartial and use good judgement.

The creme de la creme of NFL Executive Leadership.

Belichick isnt gonna take this one laying down. If they come at him again with this nom sense I expect him to do what Kraft refuses.

Is that Felger’s final answer? Would he like to use a lifeline?

BadMoFo · Dec 11, 2019

I'd be upset also. He said what he said. Maybe they should keep bugging Kraft about this.

The whole "then why were they recording it" stance implies/assumes that the team was recording for the purposes of gaining a competitive advantage by cheating, which the team has explicitly said is not the case.

You either believe the team's statement or you don't. It's clear which side you're on.

You are making a documentary about what a scout does. The medium is video. Thus a clip or two showing his vantage point ("this is what he sees") is something you might want to capture.

example: If I am making a video about what a construction worker does, I might film what's going on at a construction site. Not complicated or unusual in the least.

Does this really need to be explained again?

I'm going to cut the video guy some slack. He probably didn't know the rules and is not a part of this organization. Not sure if this is true or not, but I heard the crew was Cleveland-based. Therefore, he likely doesn't know about this team's history regarding videotaping. I mean it makes sense if you are doing a feature on a scout that you would tape what the scout is seeing (ie- the field). However, the producer who was there who is a member of Kraft Sports should have known and his boss should have made sure he knew.
