Jags Spicer trashed Pats 16-0 season

Never can have enough fuel to pour on the Patriots fire!

The Patriots usually need to contrive bulletin board material. Not this week. The Jacksonville Jaguars are making it easy on them, thanks to Camera-gate. On the Jaguars' official Web site, the Patriots rate No. 1 in the power rankings, but their 16-0 season includes an asterisk which reads, "cheated in one game." And turning back the clock to that September scandal, few players in the league were more outspoken than Jaguars defensive lineman Paul Spicer. "This ain't news," he told the Associated Press at the time. "I've heard it in the past. They finally got caught. The Patriots got caught. They're busted." At the height of Camera-gate, Spicer wanted commissioner Roger Goodell to fine the Patriots $2 million and take away their second- and third-round picks, while hoping for something even harsher. "Do like the NCAA and kick them out of the playoffs or something," Spicer said. "Put them on probation; they can't go to no playoff games. Roger Goodell has definitely enforced some new rules. He's been hard on players. Now let's see how hard he's going to be with a team." -- Boston Herald
