Just saw this on ESPN.com’s front page poll:

Belichick poll

Now, as an Eagles fan, I’m predisposed to not like New England, but this is a pathetic penalty for something the league considered a point of emphasis this year. I know I’m a few days late to the story, but it’s been a bit busy and, quite frankly, it still amazes me that the Pats get away with something like this with a tiny slap on the wrist.

It’s bugging me so much so that it’s My OneThing! on my Facebook page:

Belichick’s punishment onething!

The NFL should be ashamed that they would suspend Wade Wilson for 5 games for a violation that didn’t affect the competitive balance of his team’s games, but Belichick, who was cheating, gets no game suspension and a more affordable fine. It’s disappointing, to say the least.
