Or did he bury them in his backyard?
Why would Goodell destroy something that gives him so much power? Does that make sense?
Would it not be smart of him to hold on to the tapes for future circumstances, and for the sake of his own high paying job security?
Rich and powerful people do krafty things to stay in power and keep making a lot of money. Misspelled pun intended.
If Spygate ever came to full bloom, the NFL, Roger Goodell, Bob Kraft and The Patriots would have missed out on a lot of money because there was admitted serious cheating going on back in 2008.
When heads roll they start at the top. Goodell would have been gone, Kraft and Belichick would have been banned from the NFL for life quicker than Pete Rose was suspended from baseball and the Patriots would be a disgrace to the the NFL. That didn't happen. The problem got worse.
Figuring out the calls during the game - that's fair. Figuring out the calls before the game even started by spying on teams?
That's the Patriot way. Cheating is their way of attaining victory.
If a thief doesn't get seriously punished for getting caught, they will always steal again.
No, there isn't a rule written in the NFL rule book that says, "Thou shalt not steal," but there is a rule that says what the Patriots did was, "An act of conduct detrimental to the league."
How much money does Roger Goodell make? He's good friends with Bob Kraft, right?
He's made over $100 million from 2008 to 2012 alone. Conflict of interest?
Money and power corrupt absolutely. Spygate conveniently went away. The story got buried, and Roger Goodell, Bob Kraft, Tom Brady and the NFL have been making serious cash ever since.

Reading the article below is refreshing and annoying at the same time. It pisses me off to be honest. So blatant and in your face. So obvious.
It brings to light the fact that the Patriots have been cheating for years, but it also makes you wonder what the hell really happened between the NFL, Roger Goodell and the Patriots back then when the cheating got caught on film.
Did Goodell really destroy the evidence, or did he keep the Spygate tapes to use as leverage?
Some people think Goodell has no real power as Commissioner of the NFL.
If he has the Spygate tapes, he has power over the entire NFL.

Goodell also told Specter that that he doesn't regret destroying the Spygate tapes or the notes.
"I think it was the right thing to do," Goodell said.
Goodell also said he reserves the right to reopen the investigation if more information is uncovered.
