Only a few people here seem to understand that Bellicheck himself got fined $500k, that's a huge fine no matter how much you make.

I think Goodell sent a pretty serious message at a time when pro sports in general can't afford to be lax on cheating.

I've thought all off season that the Pats were not destined for the super bowl. I think this will be the first of many roadblocks for them. Public sentiment may affect the team because of this too.

Not to mention, every team that plays them (including us) has extra incentive to prepare that much harder.
