Default Re: Patriots get caught with camera man taping NY Jets coaches playcal

If all they were doing was focusing a camera on certain coaches then who cares. I'm sure this happens all the time.

Eavesdropping on radio signals is another matter though.

Why? It's just an arms race. Did it used to be OK to try to catch signals from your own sidelines, but cameras with zooms was another matter?

I mean, I get what you're saying, but I don't really see how you make the distinction. Spying is spying. Teams employed radio communication with the QB/booth/etc partly due to convenience, and partly because it's harder to spy on. Maybe now teams need more security on their radio lines.
