An "Under the Table" Resolution of Spygate II?

**AvengerRam** · #1 (**permalink**) -07-02-2008

Could this happen...?

The Rams, despite being the team most significantly impacted, keep quiet and allow the Spygate II situation to fade away... characterized as a mere fabrication by a disgruntled former employee of the Patriots.

A few months later, the Rams apply for an exception to the cross-ownership rule to allow Stan Kronke to become the majority owner of the team and the league, much to everyone's surprise, summarily approves the move.

Quid pro quo?

While I love the idea of resolving our ownership issue sooner rather than later, I doubt the NFL would allow this beacause of the precedence it would set. It's easier just to sweep the cheat under the NFL rug.

I don't want any favors from the NFL.

I want the New England Patriots persecuted and fined, again!

i want the trophy . i want the rams to have the trophy even if they don't want it . if all this crap is true and the NFL doesn't chime in an say ( it will not happen again . ) stuff.

i think the NFL should take away the SB trophy and give it too the team witch did not illegally film the other team at it's practice walk throughs . it should read ; winners by forfeit / default . RAMS 2 patriots 0 .

and get pixar to animate a game winning kick return with the final seconds of the game, to be appended to all highlights and rebroadcasts of the game....

Leave it to the nimble mind of Avenger to conjure up this scenario .. You never cease to amaze Av .. For the record, do you believe this could actually occur? Quid pro quo? Hmmn .. you just never know what goes on behind closed doors ...

Had you asked if whether I think it will happen, I'd probably say "no." Since you asked whether I think it could happen, I'll say "yes."

I wouldn't want it. I want the Pats erased from the books for cheating in that Championship game, nothing less.

As much as I would like something to come from Spygate, the realist in me says this is a dead issue. Even with Specter's involvement, this will be a "push" with no resolution beyond what has already been stated by Goodell. Working against the Rams seems to be their second-class status among the NFL elite. They don't have the cache of a NY, Pittsburgh, Chicago or Green Bay and I am not sure Georgia and the move to STL from LA has helped their standing any.

I don't think that enough for me. The cheatriots cheaterness (if thats a word) should be exposed to the whole world

I want New England kicked out of the NFL, the Rams to get the trophy and their SB ring.
