So leave it to Don Shula to start the tarnishing, start the mud slinging.
But now, here comes the New England Patriots, and if ever the cork was staying put, this is the threat. They’ve blown out eight opponents, beat their only perceived equal on the road, and now stare down history in a way perhaps like no one previously.
The Hall of Fame former Dolphins coach claimed to the New York Daily News that because the Pats were caught filming the New York Jets defensive signals from the sidelines in the season opener – a violation of league rules – that a 19-0 season would be marred and that an asterisk could be attached to it.
“The Spygate thing has diminished what they’ve accomplished,” Shula told the paper. “You would hate to have that attached to your accomplishments. They’ve got it.”
The reality is New England hasn’t gotten anything out of the so-called “Spygate” this season except deserved national scorn.
