Pats spied on Jets?

Dude, that was maybe the best piece of coaching Mike Shanahan has done in years. It was fully within the rules, and a perfectly-executed icing of the kicker.

I never said it was against the rules, I'm just saying it was awully close. Doesn't really matter to me Raiders lost so it's good

I will say this.........Mangini lost alot of his street cred with his peers if I were to guess.

Tattle tales are the worst.

being a nfl coach is tough. If you dont do good you get fired.

I dont think he woudl be considered a tattle tale for this. This is pretty big. What is he supposed to do. Know what they are doing but continue to let them do it?

^^^Because the media is going crazy over this. I mean, Everyone is calling Bill Bellichick a cheater. When EVEN the NBC Pregame show, amidst all their Patriot bashing, said that its not illegal to tape an opposing teams coach. Its just not legal to have a camera on the sideline.


If your in the camera in the pressbox, whic is in the same spot only higher, (and I would assume it would ahve a zoom feature, to get real close) than your straight. Bill always wanted one on the field, always had one, and the league passed a memo saying dont do it, and he did it anyway. In New York of all places. Right in the NFL offices backyard.

So back to the point, now the media constantly talks about "cheating" when truth is most teams do shady little things like that to try to win. ESPECIALLY Mangini. Thats why players who lost to us in the past 6 yrs (like Bettis and Merriman) are going to use that as an excuse. But next to Dungy, and Norv Turner, most are keeping quiet about it. And of course Mangini, who finked out Bill because the two clubs hate each other from the field to ownership.

as i understand it there is a huge thing between the Jets and the Pats, I know a couple Jets fans that said Belichick violated a part of his contract or something by becoming the head coach of the Pats, I dunno.

There is, and it goes back to when Parcells and him coached there. Ownership and BB had a falling out, and they've been a fly in his ointment ever since. And things like this, only make it worse. In the past 5 years, it went from every Pat fan looking forward to "Squish the Fish" (Dolphins), its been pointed right at the Jets.


Last year, on WEEI (Boston sports radio) they did a simulcast with WFAN (NY Radio) and had callers from both cities calling up and trash talking. They should do that shit every day. They hate us, REAL bad. Worse than Raider or Steeler fans.
