Goodell Vetoes BILL

On Thursday evening, NFL Commisioner Roger Goodell laid the smackdown on Bill Belichik and the New England Patriots. $500,000 fine against the coach, $250,000 against the Pats, and either the first round draft pick if they make the playoffs (which they surely will) or second and third round if they don't. Belichik was quoted in saying "I apologize...for the embarrassment, distraction and penalty my mistake caused." Isn't a mistake something you didn't mean to do, mmmmm... an accident. I wonder how "mistakes" this guy has made? Is it only a mistake if someone catches you doing it? You want my opinion...well I'm still gonna give it to you. Where's the suspension? Goodell should have come down harder so that it will scare off other teams that haven't gotten caught yet. I'm glad that Belichik and the Pats have been exposed for what they really are: phonies. America's team, what a disgrace. I just hope Goodell doesn't hold back when the time comes to punish a convicted felon in Michael Vick.
