Jets Taped Patriots Last Year

So the video controversy between the New York Jets and New England Patriots came to a head in September. What fans may not know is the two franchises have shared barbs over video thoughout 2006. At a game in Foxborough, a Jets employee was caught videotaping from the end-zone stands, according to a league source. The camera wasn't confiscated and the incident wasn't reported to the league, but Patriots officials were miffed. Just recently, a team official mentioned the incident in a conversation about this Sunday's Jets-Patriots game. The accusation was denied by Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum. Before the Foxborough incident, the Jets sniffed out a Patriots spy at the September, 2006 game at the Meadowlands, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. At the time, the Jets didn't report it because they were unable to confiscate the camera or the tape.
