Just reading the threads on how the NFL shut down the investigation quickly by announcing the tapes had been destroyed following the leaked videotape, has anyone seen this theory as a possible explantion tying all the pieces together:
-- Goodell finds out from BB's meeting that he has been making tapes for years, and that he sees the loophole. We beleive BB didn't deny or skirt doing any of this, probably volunteered everything.
-- Goodell doesn't buy it, sets the penalty, and decides for eternal level playing field he has to request all the tapes be sent to the NFL.
-- Goodell also doesn't see any benefit to keeping 100's of hours of these tapes, and decides to destroy them
-- Goodell anticipates the Easterbrook-King reaction like this was destruction of evidence in a court case
--Thus, and this is the kicker, rather than an inadvertent leak of the Jets tape, this was intentionally done by Goodell (perhaps via his wife's connections to Fox) so the world did see one instance of the taping, the latest one BB was nailed for.
-- So now, while a small fringe of media wants all the disclosure, 99% of the world assumes the destroyed material is exactly like the material which somehow "slipped out" from the NFl office.
