I always like the race where the dead horse wins.
Time to move on.
What does that mean? They won’t fine or penalize him (Walsh) if he spills the beans about Pats taping?
I just hope if it’s been found out that Belicheck’s been cheating that he be banned from the NFL.
After his sore loser attitude on Sunday, it’s given me more reason to not like the guy.
Supposedly, the reason that Walsh won’t talk is that he has a non-disclosure agreement with the Patriots. This means that if he gets sued for revealing what he knows about taping, then the NFL will pay his legal fees and damage awards, if any.
Time to move on.
Hmmm. That phrase sounds familiar. Where have we heard that before?
If he has new evidence, then this isn't a dead horse.
This Walsh fellow has not spoken out because he had been told by his attorney that the NFL or the Patriots could come after him for possession of stolen property, breach of contract (if he had a speak-no-evil clause in his contract) etc...
The NFL is saying that they will insure against any “losses” he may incur as a result of his blowing the whistle on the Patriots.
Thanks for the explanation.
