2002 AFC Championship Game?

I'll give you a name of a coach that thought what the Patriots were doing gave them an advantage.  BB knew taping signals would give him an advantage.  If there was no advantage gained by taping the signals, why was BB doing it?  Why would he risk getting caught?  So, either BB is a cheat or an idiot.  I'll let you pick.

Heres something to think about when it come to gaining an advantage by taping signals.  Taping signals-the patrios won the SB as a double digit underdog.  Not taping signals-loose the SB as 2 TD favorites.

The past is the past and it is over.  The games are in the record book and there is no going back.  I have accepted these facts.  You Patriot fans need to accept the fact that your organization broke the rules during the alleged "dynasty".  It doesn't matter wether or not there was an actuall effect on the game or not.  BB was breaking the rules from day 1. Period. End of story.  Taping coaching signals from the sideline was against the rules.  He did it.  He got caught.

"There's so much denial going on nowadays in NE that psychologists are working 24/7 trying to comfort NE fans and helping them deal with this travesty."

Dude.... Walsh has just been exposed as a fraud.  Spectre has made a flaming jackass out of himself.

What is it exactly that has the Steelers fan all pumped up?

The rules say YOU CAN TAPE DURING THE GAMES.  I don't understand why this simple, easily verifiable fact hasn't sunken into the head of ESPN, Spectre, and all the people who are crying because "those mean old Pats beat my football team".

I think the Salem witch trials were conducted with more sense and fairness than this foolishness.

I mean, aren't there enough real problems in this country for a US senator to address?  Does he really need to manufacture a football controversy to keep himself busy (or his meal ticket COMCAST happy?)?

How pathetic!

You are allowed to film during the game, but only what happens between the sidelines and the back of the endzones.  I know, before any of you Patrots homers are going to say what you think the rule is, it is only the actions on the field of play that are able to be filmed.  If it was only a matter of where the location of the cameras, and not what they were pointed at, then none of this crap would have taken so long to come to fruition.  Let's see what the new rule is next year before any of you Patrots homers get you panties in a bunch.

I am leaving the I out of Patrots because that stands for integrity and B_ll Bel_check has thrown that away.

SERIOUSLY THE 02' Steelers WERE BUMS...KORDELL WAS A JOKE AND WE WON BY SPECIAL TEAMS PLAY...YOU CAN TAPE A MILLION THINGS, OFFENSE, DEFENSE, S YEAMS...BUT IF YOUR GUYS PLAYED HARDER THEY WOULDVE WON...STEELERS FANS GET OVER IT...I DONT HATE ON YOU GUYS AT ALL BIG BEN IS THE #2 (I DONT MEAN CRAPPY EITHER) QB IN THE LEAGUE...YOU GUYS HAVE A GREAT HISTORY (AND A GREAT HISTORY OF LOSING TO THE PATS) AND SEVERAL OF YOUR PLAYERS I WOULD LOOOVE TO HAVE ON THE Patriots...BUT, OUR COACH IS BETTER AND OUR ENTIRE TEAM HAS DOMINATED YOURS IN THIS DECADE (SUPER BOWLS SCHMOOPER BOWLS WEVE KICKED YOUR TEAMS CROTCH REPEATEDLY AND WON MORE CHAMPS THIS DECADE) GET OVER IT AND HOPE YOU CAN BEAT US NEXT YEAR BECAUSE YOURE ONE OF THE FEW TEAMS THAT POSE AN ACTUAL THREAT AGAINST THE GREATEST TEAM EVER...BUT YOU GUYS BLEW IT IN O2' ASK YOUR GIRL SHE WILL TELL YOU WHO IS BEST...T.B.

As far as I'm concerned, the Patriots should get everything they have coming to them and more for their on and off the field lack of ethics.

Bill Belichick is one of the worst examples of a coach ever. He can't win them all and when he does win he is a smug jerk and when he loses he's a poor sport jerk.

The Patriots defense, especially Rodney Harrison (dirtiest player in the league) and Vrabel, are a bunch of jackasses who disrespect when they win.

Tom Brady is easily one of the biggest D-Bags ever. He gets his girlfriend pregnant and to show how much of a stand up guy he is, he drops her for a younger woman. Plus, when they won the Super Bowl against the Rams, the Patriots wanted to be introduced as a team. Yet Brady gets the MVP award and a nice truck and was all to happy to get the spotlight.

The only justice in the world was seeing them come one game short (the biggest game of the year!) from being undefeated. That was great. I'm hoping that as in years past, the Patriots follow suit of the loser of the previous Super Bowl and tank this year.
