Patriots Still Cheating? Belichick Now Reduced to Pulling Fire Alarms*

It was two years ago that then-Jets head coach Eric Mangini ratted out the Patriots for what would become Spygate. The NFL slapped Bill Belichick with a $500,000 fine, took away one of their first-round picks, and kindly asked us to move on.

Eventually we did, but not before accusing the Patriots of cheating their way to three Super Bowl titles this decade before karma intervened by way of David Tyree.

New England became an afterthought when Tom Brady went down 15 minutes into the 2008 season, football gods and Pats-hating fans finally mollified. But it was only a matter of time before the Dark Lord found new ways to gain an advantage over opponents. And now, after some time off to regroup, Belichick is back, this time with psychological warfare. Or as the liberals would call it: subtle forms of torture.

Read on in mock incredulity:
The fire alarm in the New York Jets' team hotel was set off late last night, forcing the team to get out of bed.

There's no proof that a Patriots fan is responsible for the incident, but safety/lead detective Kerry Rhodes(notes) has his theories, via Twitter. "You know we are playing New England when in the middle of the night when you are asleep somebody pulls a fire alarm to wake u up!! wow!!"

This is not an isolated incident either. Apparently the same thing happened to the Bills the night before their Week 1 game against the Patriots.
In related news, a hotel employee told investigators that a shadowy figure in a tattered hoodie and Seinfeld-white sneakers was seen leaving the premises early Sunday morning.*
