You think just any team can tape the opponent's practice and get away with it, then have the Commissioner destroy the evidence?

No... the NFL punishment system for off the field stuff is a colossal failure. Especially when it comes to punishing non-players (see Colts owner slap on the wrist for the drugs and all the other crap, for another example).

The only times I remember off the top of my head the NFL got serious about non-players punishment is

[list=1]
  • Sean Payton when he got caught lying to the commissioner ... and he didn't get in trouble for all the other stuff he's done like take pain pills from the Saints and other stuff that has been reported.
  • Titans owner, when he kept putting his middle finger up for everyone to see (and part of that was because he didn't stop when they told him to stop, it wasn't his first time doing it nor his first warning)[/list]
  • At least under Goodell, the NFL hasn't really ever punished non-players unless they directly get caught doing something the commissioner told them not to do. Everything else they've tried to give a slap on the wrist and move past. Including the Ray Rice deal... the Ravens got the NFL to look past that too. Does that mean all of the Ravens success has been because of the owners politics?

    I answered your question... now maybe answer mine?

    [list=1]
  • Do you think just any coach can get 15 straight seasons as an NFL head coach?
  • with a winning percentage of .729?
  • And with playoff winning percentage of .724? [*]And at one point lead the Browns (THE BROWNS) to a playoff win?[/list]

    @nerdmann, If you'd like to attain Belichick's success to his owner, I guess you haven't taken a good look at his career prior to NE in Cleveland of all places.

    As a football fan living in Wisconsin and socializing with Packer fans all the time, the amount of ignorance is baffling.

    Using the Multi-quote button seems to be leading to some sort of error for me. Is it happening to anyone else?

    @steveishere, Belichick and the Pats actually demolished GB the first time they matched up vs the McCarthy led Packers to the tune of 35 - 0 in Lambeau.

    @DakotaT, Now we need to "dominate" Super Bowls to be considered great? .... .... .... ....5 rings over 3 decades doesn't justify anything eh?
