Gregg Easterbrook Obsessed with Patriot-Gate

The man with absolutely too much free time, Gregg Easterbrook, has devoted the first part of his consistently schizophrenic Tuesday Morning Quarterback column to the destruction of the Patriots “spy tapes.”  Now you may be saying to yourself, “isn’t that a story from early last week?” and you’d be right.  This story is over, cooked and burnt to a crisp.  It’s obvious the Patriots don’t need to cheat, never needed to cheat, and won’t need to cheat in the future.  While everyone else has moved on to stories of injuries, teams who can’t win, and the horrific play of Rex Grossman, Easterbrook is still hung up on this crap.

His focus is on the destruction of the tapes by the NFL, and in addition to that, the fact that he cannot get anyone to tell him anything about what was on the destroyed tapes.  Easterbrook’s insane conjecture about all the reasons why this may be happening to him makes him look like the type of person who believes in government conspiracies to cover up UFO landings.  The idea that the NFL would cover the hides of any team is preposterous, especially given the current commissioner’s track record.  The tapes were destroyed to put this matter to bed.  The NFL won’t discuss the matter because they want it to go away.  End of story.  That means you too, Mr. Easterbrook.
