It can be fun Mr. Magoo, you should try it with your wife. You might lighten up a bit. Yep, they sure did suck before the video taping. Pete Carroll had a lot to do with that unfortunately. As a matter of fact, they sucked in their first year (this is assuming that no one other than Belichick ever video taped signals before 2000 including himself) of video taping. I guess they just needed practice on how to decipher grainy footage, unlock the encrypted signals, figure out which of the three coaches had the 'live' signal, relay this to the players during substitutions, and finally execute the play so they could use the footage during the same game as the 'experts' claim they did. We'll get to five before the Burgh gets a sixth, you can bet on that. Keep 'em coming magoo, I know you can do better... I still don’t mind being ridden like a bicycle though…

The Pats were 8-8 the year before they started to tape defensive signals. They were 5-11 the first year they taped signals. In fact, they lost the infamous Tampa Bay game that year where the Pats supposably knew all the Bucs plays because they taped defensive signals. Besides, anyone who watched the Patriots back during their first two Super Bowls, knows they were good because of superior defense and an average offense that didn't make mistakes. In 2003, the Pats had the 17th ranked offense (12th in PPG) and the 7th ranked defense (but first in fewest points allowed, along with most interceptions in the league, fewest passing TDs allowed, most defensive TDs scored with 5 which padded the Pats offensive PPG average, gave up the fewest passing TD, allowed opposing QBs to complete the second worst passing percentage, first in pass defenses, fourth in sacks, and second in total tackles). Exactly how did stealing defensive signals make the Pats' defense so good and the offense average? “My point was the Patriots sucked immediately before they started taping.”
