A matter of degree maybe. To me what the Patriots were doing is akin to what Penske and Donohue were doing in the Trans Am in the late 60's and early 70's - the unfair advantage - everybody was doing it, they just had the volume at 11.

The McLaren/Ferrari fiasco is just a case of theft pure and simple, and was delt with accordingly.
