Again, this speaks of the culture of the Belechick reign of control. Never a warm fuzzy kind of guy and I like when a team is successful, so it's not jealousy on my part. I think they are and still talented enough to win championships without resorting to less than stellar characteristics of "getting an edge over the competition". It should be an even playing field for everyone.
This happens in other venues of sports like the little league stocking ineligible players, to win at all costs. A sad commentary on the character of our culture.
Wellington Mara could have made the Giants a dominate team but chose to share the revenues of the NFL equally as he seemed to want a good product and create equal opportunity for all teams. The NFL has a great product because of the equal opportunity to obtain talents for their teams.
Tom Brady will appeal the suspension and probably get it reduced. The penalties of draft picks and fines seem severe to me and I'll bet Roger Goodell will be dropped from Robert Kraft's Christmas card list as Kraft was a big supporter of Goodell, when he mishandled other players punishment.

Tom Brady refusing to cooperate? Based on what? This investigator does not have subpoena power, so he just wanted Brady to turn over his cell phone and text messages?
Brady is half of one of the highest profile couples in the country. How much would those emails and text messages fetch on the open market from the likes of the National Enquirer? Who would trust the NFL to protect their privacy in this day and age?
