The New England Patriots have released a statement denying today's report that the team video taped the St. Louis Rams' final walkthrough before Super Bowl XXXVI: "The suggestion that the New England Patriots recorded the St. Louis Rams' walkthrough on the day before Super Bowl XXXVI in 2002 is absolutely false. Any suggestion to the contrary is untrue." The idea that the Patriots had taped St. Louis' walkthrough had been floated before; allegedly, then-team employee Matt Walsh stayed behind at the Superdome after the Patriots took their team photo on Feb. 2, 2002, and filmed the Rams walkthrough. He then boarded the media shuttle with other news reporters. Walsh is now an assistant golf pro in Hawaii. New England pulled one of the biggest upsets in Super Bowl history with its 20-17 win over the Rams.
