Without evidence, no one can really make this claim. Matt Walsh's credibility isn't looking too good right now, given he stole whatever tapes he had.

You never heard his testimony and really, never even met Walsh, you have no explanation as to why he kept the tapes, why his resume wasn't perfect or any of the information a trial court or investigator would demand but you want to toss out anything he may have to say before he has said it. Soooo if he exonerates the Patriots -- we can't believe that either. The way the Pats defense played? Suspicious.

For the NFL Commish to gloss over any of this stuff is going to be the biggest mistake he could make. When the results are in, if the Pats were cheating then both the coach and the owner should be publicly vilified by the NFL--not just fined.

prove it or shutup about it.

In the end, I doubt Goodell will really come clean with the public about what actually was going on.

Hopefully, Senator Spector will not be as quick to sweep everything under the rug.

As for you pundits that feel U.S. Senators have more important matters than the NFL on their plate, remember, the NFL has been very active in seeking out YOUR taxpayer dollars to underwrite their business expenses. When they took taxpayer dollars the NFL gave up the right to run a closed shop.. If the games are crooked our representatives should step in and clean house if the NFL is not doing the job properly. As a major source of NFL funding the American taxpayer has earned, and deserves, the courtesy of honest games....

babeghost, and how much money does the NFL put into local coffers? It's very obvious that Spector is biased in this regard.

Sorry if 'cheating' by our elected officials bothers me more than cheating by sports teams.

My head just spun in a 360 degree circle.
Weren't you calling for Belichick's head on a plate a few days ago?

Here we go again... move on...

Walks like a duck... talks like a duck.

Belichek and Co. already have been proven cheaters. So, logic dictates they cheated then. Big deal. The league will do nothing. What can you do? Have them replay the Super Bowl? Strip the rings and hand them to the Rams? Never happen.

So, this is all just a charade. Belly-CHEAT will just get a stern warning to never let this embarassment happen again, and the Pats will be let go of any further punishment.

Let's all move on.

you first. because apparently by your illogical and uninformed tirade, you're not ready to.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

So over spygate. Does anyone really care? The Patriots are a great team whether or not they videotaped Kurt Warner doing #2 in the port-o-potty or not.

Not really. I do think he's a nut job and I'm glad the Patriots lost.

Okay. Glad to get that all straightened out. Now what to do about my neck. HA!

Its great that some of you sit on here and say What evedince? Yea the guy who obviously taped every game he thought was a tough win, probably every game period decided suddenly to skip the most important one because his concience got to him and he decided that would be cheating and too far? Give me a break, He did, they used it to their advantage, end of story. It was 6 years ago, its over, the rings are made, their is nothing anyone can do about it

How do we know the other team didn't have tapes too?

Are you having fun making my head spin? lol

I think we all know most do whatever it takes to win.. the pats just got caught. Move on and focus on today and ways in the future to protect teams.

It's one thing to have fun with it and call him Belicheat and get on Pats fans for being obnoxious. But these holier than thou people who want to have a federal investigation (on the taxpayers dime) are nuts. Look what happened with the steroid investigation with baseball. All it did was ruin people's names. Not worth it IMHO.
