Belichick's been taping since 2000
Additional source: LINKThe Associated Press reports New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick has been illegally taping since 2000, according to Senator Arlen Specter, who said NFL commissioner Roger Goodell told him that during a meeting Wednesday, Feb. 13. "There was confirmation that there has been taping since 2000, when Coach Belichick took over," Specter said.
Glad these guys blew it in the super bowl, and that shitbag Belichik should be banned from coaching.

I agree Evil, but Goodell won't do anything but stall and hope it goes away.

Yep, probably so but still a shame that this stuff slips through. You have to wonder at this point just how good the Pats really are. With the talent they have it was kind of stupid to cheat for a competative edge.Originally Posted by Abbey

My husband, an Eagles fan, sure is curious about how far back this taping goes.

I don't get into the arcane politics of football so go easy.
Is there a law that says you cannot observe and take notes on the other teams? Back in the day (1974) when I played football in gradeschool, we actually had game films.
So what if he taped anything. Skill and ability are what counts.
If I am off base, educate me.

Yes, in fact there is an NFL rule that you cannot videotape the other team's signals. A rule which the Cheaters broke. Period. They were doing it on the sly for that reason. They gave Goodell only six tapes (though their notes say they were doing it since 2001), and Goodell proceeded to destroy the tapes.

Ah well, that changes things a bit. I would say that the NFL needs to sanction him with a big money fine. But, OTOH, I don't think Congress has any business getting involved. JMO
Thanks for the info.
