05/14/2008 - Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Boston Herald apologized to its readers and the New England Patriots for shoddy reporting during the NFL's "Spygate" affair.
On February 2, the newspaper reported that a member of the New England Patriots' video staff, Matt Walsh, taped the St. Louis Rams' walkthrough on the day before Super Bowl XXXVI.
On Tuesday, Walsh met with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell for over three hours to discuss what he knew about the team's videotaping practices.
Walsh sent the NFL eight tapes showing that the Pats recorded play-calling signals by coaches of five opponents over six games between 2000 and 2002.
However, the tapes did not include video of the Rams' walkthrough practice prior to Super Bowl XXXVI.
"It was clear there was not an overt attack or access to the Rams walkthrough," Goodell said. "No one asked (Walsh) to tape the walkthrough and he's not aware of anyone else who taped the walkthrough."
The Herald then admitted that it neither possessed nor viewed a tape of the Rams' walkthrough before Super Bowl XXXVI and never spoke to anyone who had.
"We should not have published the allegation in the absence of firmer verification," the newspaper said in a statement on its Web site.
"The Boston Herald regrets the damage done to the team by publication of the allegation, and sincerely apologizes to its readers and to the New England Patriots owners, players, employees and fans for our error."

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds
With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season. What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season. Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all. Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13). Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two. Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury. Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven. Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury. Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.
In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons. Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4. Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1). The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this. No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.
