Patriots owner Robert Kraft held up a copy of the newspaper during an interview with CNBC on Wednesday.
He called the story "very damaging" and said he was glad the paper admitted its mistake. But he said the Herald's apology probably couldn't undo the damage to the team's reputation nationwide.
"This erroneous story coming out was really harmful, and what bothers me more about this story is where it went, throughout the country, where people don't know us as well," he said. "And unfortunately, now they won't see this retraction. But people who know us, know what we're about."
No evid ence of other teams doing it? Maybe (and I don't think the NFL is looking very hard), but you are completely naive if you think it is not going on. Players and coaches admit it is happening all of the time. |
I think we have no idea how hard the NFL has been looking. Players and coaches have admitted to creating a film library of signals? I hope you are not suggesting that. It's one thing to have the binoculars in the press box spying on a sideline (which I believe is inside the rules) but to have a library of film is quite another, and folks are way to pessimistic if they think everyone has one of those.
Last year in week 1, they found only 1 team. The Patriots, what are the odds that they only found 1 team (even though they all must do it) AND they only found one former employee who happened to work for the same patriots team?
