| as right on, but since then there have been more questions than answers. Why were the tapes destroyed? Why didn't anyone from the NFL talk to the cameraman himself? Why are there new rumors that the Patriots taped the 2002 Super Bowl practice of the St. Louis Rams? Why does Sen. Arlen Specter want to make it a federal case? Why does Belichick always look like he just ate some bad oysters? Inquiring minds want to know, and this is one scandal that won't go away simply because the NFL wants it to. - Stop th |

Instead it was undoubtedly one of the biggest upsets in Super Bowl history, close enough to draw comparisons to the Patriots' improbable win over the St. Louis Rams in 2002, but not nearly as shocking as Jets 16, Colts 7. The Giants were no pushover, for sure. They had the big defensive lineup to match with the solid Patriots offensive line, a better-than-good running game and one of the game's surefire receivi |

The Patriots beat the favored Rams the next day 20-17 for their first NFL title. Specter said he questioned why Matt Walsh, who did video work for the Patriots during that time, was not |
