Don Banks on Should Congress investigate the NFL's destruction of video evidence stemming from Spygate?

Specter's off-base

After all, Spygate has made its mark and changed the game. It wasn't swept under the rug, and as ugly chapters go, it won't soon be forgotten. The NFL has made changes to its practices to help ensure its technology will be used legally and on a level playing field. Teams are much more wary of cheating today than they were before last September. As for the Patriots, their coaches or employees won't be able to swing a lens in any direction from now on without having all eyes upon them. Belichick and Co. certainly have that coming.

But an independent investigation of Spygate, dragging the story out another six months or so and assigning it even more importance than it ever deserved? That's an idea whose time has not come. Here's hoping it never does.
