Is this to be believed? I've long felt that Belichick was not a man of integrity. Then again, it's not like most coaches are Tom Landry. Football is not pretty at times, no matter the facade the league would like to project. It's about revenue first and foremost. Protect their cash cow. If true, it looks like Goodell felt that the Patriots had betrayed his trust. I know that Goodell is not popular with some people. It's not like I know the inner workings of the business side of things. I just know what I read in the media.
