Belichick Cuts Lynch's Ligament in Anticipation of Week 11 Matchup

Spygate aside, Bill Belichick is a good football coach. One of the best some may argue. His keen sense of style (cutoff hooded sweatshirts - the next big fashion craze coming from Milan) and his "do anything to win" attitude are unparalleled in the NFL, if not all of sports. Maybe Marion Jones or Jose Canseco are close seconds.
Last week, while sunning himself on Miami's finest beaches and sampling the local fare, Belichick found time to make it to Dolphins Stadium to scout the Buffalo Bills for the upcoming Patriot's matchup following the bye week. No one was aware that Belichick was even present at the game, and after spending the first half and much of the third quarter videotaping the Bills defensive signals from his super spy video camera, Belichick, realizing that rookie sensation Marshawn Lynch was the only offensive weapon that the Bills possessed, decided to take matters into his own hands.
While some may chalk it up to fate, others to coincidence, the fact that the only weapon for the Bills that could possibly give the Patriots trouble (in their quest for the first undefeated season since Don Schula's Dolphins did it back in 1972), went down with an ankle injury is neither fate nor coincidence. It was Bill Belichick... An inconvenient truth indeed.
After reviewing game tape it became clear that Belichick used his super spy invisibility cloak to sneak onto the field and attempt to cut Lynch's. Belichick failed but he managed to make sure Lynch would be ineffective against the Patriots by twisting Lynch's ankle in a last ditch effort. Below is a screenshot taken from a frame by frame video. Evidently the cloak only works as long as you are not making physical contact with a living person, and a fast enough camera can catch you in the act.
Here's the photo. You be the judge. First Madden, now real football. Where will Belichick cheat next?
