http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/7749384?MSNHPHMA Sen. Arlen Spectre on "Outside The Lines" just said he's ready to take this all the way up to and including a Senate Commitee. He said he'd bring in everyone from Tom Brady on up. Curt Warner is quoted as saying he'd testify. I think this is going to get ugly.
Please. It's the lesser of the two Boston newspapers, it's a 6 year old "story", and it's an "unnamed source." This is someone trying to ******** with the Pats on the day of the Superbowl. Nothing more.
Well, the NFL is a multi-billion dollar business. If anything, something like this could hurt the bookies in Vegas.
Pats, Kraft, Belichick sued for $100M Former Ram seeks compensation for Super Bowl loss http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/football/nfl/02/15/patriots.sued.ap/index.html?cnn=yes
Shit's getting deep, former Patriot employee willing to turn over tapes... http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/7803236/Walsh's-lawyer-asks-NFL-for-protection?MSNHPHMA
Who the hell is Willie Gary??? I guess his ONE tackle over his one year career in the NFL didn't bring enough food to the table so he wants to cash in on this opportunity. Was he even active for the Superbowl?
Yeah, this is over the top. $50M is sufficient. Even Latrell Sprewell could feed his family on that... I don't think this guy has anything to worry about- the stuff that won them the three Super Bowls was probably destroyed by Goodell. I doubt there will be anything here that will force the NFL to grow a pair and say "your team has harmed the integrity of the game".

Arlen Spector (R-PA) will not rest until he finds out why the Steelers and the Eagles lost to the Patriots in the playoffs.
Jesus Christ. NFL fans deserve a clean league no matter where Spector lives. I'm just glad someone had the courage to step up and do what's right.
So that includes spending taxpayers' money to get to the bottom of a videotaping scandal? This is not a steroid thing where people poison their bodies, and inflict damage to themselves, this is a freakin' videotaping issue. Like Kornheiser said, this guy ought to be ashamed of himself.
Do you think Spector would be doing this if he was a Senator in any other state. He is doing this simply because he is an Eagles fan.
Whether or not his job calls for this level of interest is for another thread. I'll start it if you'd rather not. Whether or not his job calls for this level of interest is for another thread. I'll start it if you'd rather not.
