Patriots accused of taping Rams before the 2002 Super Bowl

[SBXVII]

Well lets just for safety sake say the team never told the camera man to film. Lets say he filmed the practice under cover and went to the Patriots and said "Hey I got this film and the Patriots paid him to get the film. Maybe they didn't pay him maybe he is a fan of the Patriots and gave it to them. It's still illegal. The Pat's had a duty to notify the League about the individuals actions and have the individual sent packing from the SB.

I guess the big question will be if there is a film was it given to the Patriots or were they allowed to view it. If someone randomly filmed and held the film for a few yrs but never showed it to anyone and then all of a sudden claims to have given it to the opposing team would be crappy also. Way to many questions floating around Bellichik and the Patriots.
