Belichick should be fired. If I cheated at my job I'd be let go immediately.

I don't know why Specter has to get involved though... Just let the league handle it. rolleyes.gif

i guess a foul in basketball is considered breaking a rule, but i don't consider it cheating.
offsides in football is breaking a rule, but not cheating.
it's legal to use your eyes to look at an opponents signs, just not video them? makes no sense.
sign stealing goes on in all sports and it's very common knowledge that it happens. so use it to your advantage.

It's cheating but you don't see it that way in basketball because it is dealt with accordingly. A foul is seen and possession changes or free throws are taken. If people were allowed to violate the rules it would be cheating.
