NEW YORK JETS: The only reason New York ratted on the Patriots for videotaping signals in 2007 is because New England threw a Jets employee out of Gillette Stadium for doing the same a year earlier. Of course, then-Jets coach Eric Mangini dubbed their misdeeds as "standard operating procedure." Not to be outdone, former New York strength and conditioning coach Sal Alosi resorted to tripping a dude. From Yahoo.sports all teams "cheat"
It's not cheating when you ask the opposing team for permission and are granted permission. But whatever makes you feel better.
