Anybody remember the Patriots filming the Cincy sideline?
Yeah. I forgot too. Evidently, so did the NFL, I'm guessing. Was that ever resolved?

NFL security is going to hand over their final report in a few days.
From the small handful of people that I know in the pro football world, it is not expected anything more than a warning will be given. |

I'm no Pats fan, but one does have to wonder, why would you feel the need to cheat to beat the Bungles?

BB's a very thorough guy, and they're on their first new coaching staff in almost two decades.

Yeah, against certain teams, like my New York Dwarfs, it may not be a good idea at all to film their sideline. "No, Harry, we'd better not do it this time. Not against that team. We may pick up bad habits!"

I think they just claimed those doing the filming were a separate entity. Sort of like if you hire a contractor and they do something illegal while working for you. Not your problem. You'd have to actually find a link.

Perhaps this is a stupid question... But what I don't understand is: Why would you need a credentialed film crew on the sidelines to film the opponents signals? Wouldn't it be less-risky to pay for tickets in a few different sections (with clear views of the opponent's sideline) and have those people film the sidelines?

That explanation is not only weak, it is irrelevant. Whether is was a contractor, coach, popcorn vendor or waterboy, the Patriot organization is once more illegally filming other teams. They are repeat offenders.

Given the contradictory statement, that's probably what's taking so long. |
