More from Ollie's team:

For a window into the Patriots' tactics, multiple Packers sources provided a fascinating account of what happened in the 35-0 victory last Nov. 19. A man identifying himself as a Patriots employee asked a security guard if he could shoot footage of Lambeau Field before the game, and permission was granted. Just before the game, he requested to stay on the sidelines to record quarterback Tom Brady for the coaching staff. However, he was soon spotted filming the Packers defense and signaling Patriots coaches. A member of the Packers security staff witnessed the exchange and asked him to leave. He retreated to the tunnel, continued filming, and appeared to be communicating with the coaches via hand signals before being escorted off the field. Asked why the Patriots weren't reported, a Packers executive suggested there was a code of silence regarding such matters, particularly after a blowout. "It bothers you that it's cheating," he said, "but it's not the reason they kicked our (butt)." It's interesting to note a pair of comments after that game. The first came from Packers corner Al Harris, who praised the Patriots coaching staff. "It's almost like they knew what we were doing, you know?" he said. "You have to tip your hat to them. They ran plays designed for us. They ran plays that made us check out of some things. I don't know who calls their plays, but Belichick is pretty good. Honestly, he's pretty good." --

Hey Fantasy Football fans, if you totally (I mean like Charlie Frye-Eli Manning totally) suck at QB grab Duante and thank me later:

NFL Network reports that Raiders QB Josh McCown has a fractured index finger on his throwing hand and is expected to be sidelined for at least a couple of weeks. Daunte Culpepper is expected to take McCown's place in the Raiders' starting lineup. Earlier this week, Raiders coach Lane Kiffin said that McCown was going to be his starter at Denver, but that was before this news came out.

I just grabbed Duante off the waiver wire in a keeper league because I have the number one waiver spot and one dude needs him bad! Starters rock so I expect no less than a 4th round pick next year from a desperate individual.

I can haz a second round pick?

We'll see.

Culpepper is worth taking a chance on. If he works out he will be great trade bait.

Oh I'm sure. I don't even know how these pools work. They sound really complicated. I guess I'm just an old Packer fan, and I like seeing these old Vikings get booted around... and hard to believe that any of them could be any good! Don't even get me started about Darren Sharper... it gets even harder with Randy Moss as I was thinking of changing allegences and becoming a Patriots fan.

Will Bill Belichick be remembered for three Super Bowl wins ... or the camera on the sideline?

The truth is, there's probably no saving the Pats. Everyone outside New England was searching for a legitimate reason to hate them for the past four years, and now they have an excellent one. Spying on opponent's signals is just plain seedy. It's one step above playing footsie with someone in an airport men's room. It's a disgrace. It's embarrassing.

Not me, I had Kevin and the infamous 'tuck' rule as perfect reasons to hate the Pats. Anyways, this story is really starting to take on a life of its own.

Good job Belishit! Was it worth it?

NFL fined Patriots coach Bill Belichick $500,000, the maximum amount according to league policy, for the use of equipment to videotape the Jets' defensive calls in Week 1. The team will also lose at least one draft choice, most likely a first-round pick.
