Patriots, Belichick fined $750,000 and lose draft choices
The Associated Press reported Thursday night that the National Football League has fined coach Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots a total of $750,000 and will force the team to forfeit ''multiple draft choices'' as a result of their illegal videotaping of the New York Jets' defensive signals during last Sunday's game.

Why not do away with coaches in the press boxes
who relay defense plays to the players. This is
worst then the video thing. If teams want an even
playing field lets do away with this and there
would be no need for this type of video activity.
It seems to me if the defensive team gains an
advantage of the offensive, why not let the offensive team do the same. Go Pats.
