Once a story takes a life, it can stay around indefinitely. Such is the case of Spygate where Denver Broncos Head Coach Josh McDaniels and the team were each fined $50,000 for being involved in a taping incident.
A video assistant allegedly filmed a San Francisco 49er's practice in London while both teams were getting ready for their contest. McDaniels said he declined to look at the video when made aware of it.
Steve Scarnecchia, son of Pats long time coach Dante, was fired by the Broncos.The team was fined $50,00 for his role. McDaniels received the same fine for not disclosing the offense to the league in a timely manner. Teams were under a league mandate to self-report incidents like this.
The league said the penalties were less than the Pats because of the scenario. McDaniels reportedly told his team that the Pats "practiced" and "coached" to the videos during Spygate.
McDaniels is now caught in a major jam. What really happened during his time with the Pats when Spygate occurred? Was he being totally truthful in his answers to questions back then?
I wonder if Coach Belichick will answer any questions about this.
The answer will be: "I'm only trying to get ready for the game with (next opponent)".
