Report: Patriots taped more games
Amid news that former Patriots video assistant Matt Walsh is close to reaching an agreement to tell what he knows, the Globe found that Walsh broke league rules under orders from the Patriots by videotaping opponents' signals between 2000 and 2002, and could have video recordings to prove it, which has not been previously reported.

    As much as I would love to sling more mud at the Patriots and coach Bilicheck, this Walsh guys sounds like a disgruntled employee.  My gut tells me this guy has zero physical evidence and is all hot air.

      If he really is full of hot air, as you suspect, I'll be disappointed.

Matt Walsh Is A Sick Bastard
The Smittblog — ... This week the Boston Globe (a periodical which clearly is going full speed ahead with pro-Pats propaganda mode) came out with a feature about Walsh by one of its lead investigative reporters.
