The Hartford Courant has published an interview with Matt Walsh, the former Patriots’ video man and Spygate figure who also happens to be a Connecticut native. Walsh had this to say to the question of whether he was seeking publicity through his involvement in this saga:
“This whole experience has been one big annoyance…What good came of all of this for me? I have been discredited and slandered publicly, became indebted to hundred of thousands of dollars in legal fees, and had to deal with the constant stresses and time consumption of this whole matter.”
Walsh claims he has incurred six-figure legal fees. That is difficult to fathom. Walsh’s lawyer likely spent a substantial amount of time speaking with the press, NFL officials and lawyers and the Patriots’ lawyers. An indemnification agreement was negotiated, drafted and executed. (Click here to view the indemnification agreement). But hundreds of thousands of dollars in fees? I doubt it.
