NFL FINES BELICHICK; PATRIOTS LOSE PICK

I don't know how other football fans feel about it, but I think New England got off with a slap on the wrist. Belichick was fined $500,000 and the team was fined $250,000. The Patriots lose a first round draft pick if they make the playoffs, and second and third round picks if they don't. I think they should have been ordered to forfeit a game. Cheating, which is what Belichick and the Patriots have been doing for years, casts a pall over the whole league. Is this how they won some of their Super Bowls? How can we be sure that it isn't. Coaches around the league are saying that everyone in football knew the Patriots were cheating. This time they got caught. Money means nothing to Belichick and the Patriots. Winning means everything - so the league should hit them where it will hurt the most - in the win column.
