WASHINGTON, May 14 (UPI) -- U.S. Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., Wednesday said there should be an independent investigation into allegations of cheating by the NFL's New England Patriots.
The day after NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said he didn't expect further sanctions against the Patriots in the so-called Spygate probe, Specter suggested a panel, such as the one in baseball that was headed by former U.S. Sen. George Mitchell, D-Maine, look into the Patriots.
