Coach Apologizes for "Videotaping" Commotion

Patriots coach Bill Belichick is apologizing for the commotion surrounding his team following accusations the club spied on the New York Jets during Sunday's season-opening victory.

Belichick says in a written statement that he spoke with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell  this week about a "videotaping procedure." He says the Pats have not yet been notified of the league's ruling.

Belichick refused to answer questions about the accusations at a morning news conference.

A league spokesman says an investigation is under way but denies an ESPN.com report that Goodell has determined the Patriots violated league rules when they videotaped defensive signals by the Jets' coaches.

NFL security confiscated a video camera and tape from a Patriots employee during New England's 38-14 victory. The employee was accused of aiming his camera at the Jets' defensive coaches as they signaled to players on the field.

this cheating has been going on for 7 years with belicheat ; im sure if goodell checks the tapes of the super bowl he'll find the same cheating. this was anunsucessfull, rude arrogant coach before new england. it doesnt surprise me that hes stealling defensive signals; tom brady is the most overrated qb ever; the cheating makes sense , for the equally arrogant and boorish brady. ther are other complaints lodged against him for years; bugging rooms, stealing playbooks, etc; both belecheat and brady should be suspended 3 years indefinitely' the super bowl victories declared officially tainted. this organization as well as the red sox always operating there franchises ; cheat and find shady unethical ways of competing. put an end to this mess

let us nip this in the but by taking away right to draft players, not allowing team to take place in playoff games and make games won while cheating a loss. these coaches and players are way overpaid and should be pentilized for th;eir actions.
