I remember Goodell's words talking about reviewing one of the tapes and saying that "one coach was seen waving at the cameraman".....knowing that the Pats were taping. I believe that BB probably had some tapes of opposing teams taping the Pats in the same way. As detailed as BB is I just have to imagine that he had collected and kept material that would support his interpretation of the rule by establishing it as a league practice. I believe the Pats were only punished in the fashion they were because a Memo was sent out addressing this exact practice.I also feel that any further league wide investigation will support that it was a common practice!
