Re: The Patriots Are Showing Their Guilt, And The NFL Doesn't Want To See The Proof

To chime in with support for my fellow attorney on the board, avenger (as always) is right on target. The legal fees alone in a situation like this could easily exceed 100k. Its not reasonable to expect anyone to put themselves at risk for that kind of money when they have nothing personally to gain.

The fact that the league didnt ask to speak to him in the first place during the initial investigation speaks volumes. You would think that if you were doing an honest and open investigation about taping and wanted to know whether the jets situation this year was a one shot deal or part of a historical pattern, you would interview those in charge of taping for the team for the last several years. Former employees are often the best source of information when it comes to misconduct by management. Not always reliable of course, but certainly a relevant data point.

ramming speed to all
