Pats Should Know Fate by Tomorrow

Posted by Matt Loede on September 13th, 2007 filed in News

The Patriots should learn their fate tomorrow.  NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has reportedly concluded the Pats violated a league rule Sunday by spying on the New York Jets with a video camera.  It’s been alleged they videotaped defense signals by the Jets coaches.  Yesterday, coach Bill Belichick apologized to the team ownership, his players and their fans.  But in a statement, he did not admit to doing anything wrong.  Belichick says his interpretation of the rules appear to be different than those of the commissioner.  Goodell is said to be considering severe sanctions that could include the team giving up multiple future draft picks.
