I don't think this is that bad. I mean....its against the rules I know. I just wonder how much they really benefit from this. If they benefited optimally (they have the other team's plays down pat and can counter), its a lot worse than what I think they are really capable to use it for.

I could be completely wrong, and I am very disappointed. I just don't hate them that much for this.
Brother Grips,
I think it is a pretty big deal advantage wise. Last night on MNF, Ron Jaworski talked about what a difference it made for him knowing the defense signals, and recited a story about getting a TD simply from getting a tip about an opposing coach's signal.

Brother MOJO,
I'm sure that knowing another teams signals is a huge advantage, the question is does videotaping give you a significantly better chance at figureing out their signals than just watching them give the signals and taking notes?

Re: "Disillusionment" I feel your pain brother!
Heck, I remember Jim Nance (NCAA wrestling champ from Syracuse), Babe Parelli, Gino Cappeletti, Nick Buonticonti, etc. etc. Those were the days, my friend.

(sorry for all the misspelled names, but I'm too busy right now to look them up)

The President has told us all along, the Patriot bill is necessary to win the war against our enemies, including, presumably, Jet strikes.

Another fun wrinkle in this story: according to the Wall Street Journal, Belicheck can deduct his fine on his taxes.
