This is just the tip of the iceberg. I think more comes out, and it gets worse and worse for both the NFL and Kraft/Belichick.

It should have been obvious that the Patriots had filmed 40+ games. There were complaints going back 7 years. Patriots' fans claims that it was only one game were beyond absurd.

Maybe not that Martz's statement was changed, but that it really wasn't true. You don't get cheated out of a SB ring and just be alright with it.

There is no doubt that Kraft knew some of what was going on before Spygate broke and was ok with the cheating. Other teams were complaining. The year before, the Packers caught them video taping. It took someone with inside knowledge, Jets coach, to finally get the NFL to act. Kraft was complicit in the cover up and allowed Belichick to keep his job. It's clear Kraft was ok with doing anything to win. Kraft is not stupid.
