I dont know if this has been posted yet but Roger Godell has to go in front of the senate to explain why the nfl destroyed evidence about spygate. Good thing this is being checked into since Godell just gave Bill Belicheck and the Patriots a slap on the wrist.

Re: Roger Godell to go in front of senate
To me, this is simply another case of the misuse of government power.
What the Patriots did violated NFL rules, but did not rise to the level of a federal offense. Nor does this have anything to do with the NFL's exemption from federal anti-trust laws.
Congress would be better served by making the Bush tax cuts permanent, and providing support to our troops in Iran and Afganistan.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

Spygate is Belichick being an arrogant *****, for which he was quickly punished by Goodell.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

Originally posted by Jan ReimersExactly. You would think that the economy, the war, the energy situation, health care and several other key issues just might take priority over an internal NFL matter.To be the man you got to beat the man!

Re: Roger Godell to go in front of senate
Originally posted by Owen DeBoardYeah I agree with you but instead of hearing about Roger Clemens where there is no proof that he did steroids and that was all the media wanted to talk about, they can turn to spygate which there is proof that they cheated and the nfl tried to cover it up.
I don't agree, though, that the NFL tried to cover up spygate. Belichick and the Pats were punished swiftly and publicly.
Regardless, it's still an NFL matter, not a societal matter like steroids.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

Originally posted by Owen DeBoardWhy would they when you have a president and vice president in office that are making major $. I didnt vote for Bush the first term and sure as hell didnt vote for him the second term. We have nobody but our selves to blame for the shape the economy is in because we let him get elected again. Im getting way off the topic now.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
