I think they should suspect Tom Brady for 4 games because of this report.

Is it really hacking if the guy doesn't change his password?

Oh great....another sports cheating scandal. This shit is crazy.

This is a huge deal. It looks like this guy, Luhnow, built a super smart database that is a big reason the Cardinals have been so successful in the past decade. And his database must work pretty good based on the Astros turnaround.

Were the Cardinals too lazy to observe what he was doing when he worked for them and now have to steal his plans now that he is gone? That is fucked up. Somebody is going to jail.

I guess this database leaked last year per Deadspin ... and it revealed they rejected a trade for Giancarlo Stanton! Oops.

The Feds must have been working on this case since last July. This would be considered corporate espionage, correct?

One would imagine, right? Regardless of how small it was. I can't wait to see this play out. Is there a punishment big enough?

I can't even compare this to something that Bill Belichick would get caught doing, because Bill Belichick would not be stupid enough to commit corporate espionage from his own home computer.

And why would whoever did steal the info post in on the internet a year ago??? That's like shooting a flare gun from your front porch ...

Yeah, it doesn't explain anything there Sparky. Success is not one dimensional.

The best part of this is how defensive St Louis fans are going to get.

I agree with Mike wilbon. This is corporate espionage. This would be the biggest scandel in the history of sports....

If it's true.
