he got off easy!!! 500,000 and a draft pick? Sit him belichick out for a 3 games. Make him feel shame. 500,000 is nothing. Maybe kraft can pay him back in his next contract. Suspend his ass 3 games and dock 3/16 of his yearly salary.

Next they have the 49ers first pick also. So basically if they make the playoffs they are only losing a 20-32nd pick. If they win the superbowl they lose a 32nd pick.

This punishment sucks. They cheated. Dock them a game, suspend the coach for three, cut his salary for those games, take a first round pick away, and take a 3rd round away. That is what should be done in my opinion. He cheated and showed zero respect for the rules.

Suspending Belichick doesn't really harm the Patriots though, cause you know he'll figure out a way still to "coach" the team. Draft picks are more damaging than BB not being on the sideline.

But does this explain now why Notre Dame sucks? Because Charlie Weiss doesn't have the advantage of a videoman at ND?

They should be on probation for 2 years. No playoffs in that time and take 15 million in cap space.

Anyone who hasn't done so already should watch Bill Belichick's "apology" on ESPN.com. His arrogance is amazing. The guy is a grade-A a**hole. Between shoving photographers, cheating on his wife, bashing Mangini, refusing to shake Mangini's hand in the middle of the field, to spying, and to refusing to apologize for his actions, I can't believe anyone thinks otherwise.

That's unrealistic. Not only would it be unprecedented, but the Krafts were major supporters of Goodell's promotion. And, it's realistic to assume that there are some other teams breaking this rule. He needs to send a painfull message, not alienate himself from the owners.

There is most definitely some high level political considerations to take into account.

Hhhmmm...I'd say do the probational period, and any team that they beat this year doesn't count as a loss for those opponents. Almost like a "free space" in Bingo! LOL! That will never happen, but I guarantee that would hurt.

It's like a free for all on this thread to use your imagination. I think that they should play, and every game should count. But that their starting offensive line has to play with one hand tied behind all of their backs.

How about Brady has to wear an eye patch for the rest of his career? That would be cool if he was traded to tampa.

Or they could remove his dick, and trade him to Dallas....
