Hey four people a decade dye when being hit by golf balls. You can't fight fate.

Well Bill, if you're a guilty son of a gun, see you in the 2009 season. Enjoy your extended off-season.

Wow, after one year on the job Goodell and the NFL is already under fire. Thanks to Beliprick and the Puketriots.

The future doesn't bode well for the NFL with this guy at the controls.

good! now the punishment i'm hoping for is taking away each and every player's superbowl ring... and banning the patriots from ever playing in the NFL... and also put a * next to every game they've won since belichick became coach... also goodell should be fired... and taglibue coming back...

About to head off to a Super Bowl party (I am watching tonight's game and the anticipated Pats victory with the same sense of dread I will have watching the election returns in November if Hillary is the Democrat nominee), but wanted to link to this game day post from Dr. Z. He is not given to overstatement and has covered the game since the 60s - accordingly his post indicates Coronation Day is proceeding under gathering storm clouds:

This morning as Super Bowl Sunday dawned the whole landscape changed. The story that broke out of Boston, that the Patriots had taped the Rams' walkthrough before the 2002 Super Bowl, places the whole event under suspicion. Cheat in a Super Bowl? I mean, it's one thing to get caught cheating at the beginning of the regular season, but to take it to the biggest arena of all? Wow, this puts the whole thing under a cloud.

How shallow it makes the entire promotion seem, the parties, the endless hype, the reams of copy devoted to the magnificence of the unbeaten Patriots. Of course there might be nothing to the story, but still, suspicion hangs over this game like some deadly fog. It makes everything we've read all week, all the stories we've gathered ourselves, seem like the ultimate in hypocrisy. It puts the league itself under suspicion and brings the commissioner, Roger Goodell, into sharper focus for his failure to answer the question of why, indeed, he destroyed the Spygate tapes earlier this season. This was the major news angle that came out of his Friday presentation, which still left the matter unanswered, in my opinion.

If the Spygate II story is correct, then the Patriots have blinded a lot of people in their devious march to immortality.

Too bad for the arrogant, smug pr*cks that the "march" was unceremoniously halted one game short today isn't it? Can't wait to see the screws get put to those bastards during the offseason. Mr. Walsh, come on down and tell us and show us everything you know.

Beware Commissioner Good Deal!!!!

I hope this is isnt just a big smokescreen.

I'm sure absolutely nothing will come of this.
