Sal Alosi Story Not Going Away as Jets Suspend Coach

Sal Alosi will spend the rest of his life wishing he had never stuck his knee out during a punt return, when he tripped Nolan Carrol of the Miami Dolphins injuring the player.

The images which have become the rage on YouTube, and have angered hundreds of people and is now being called TRIPGATE, has taken a new twist.

After the Jets suspended him for the season, without pay, the club now changed their stance and suspended him indefinitely after it was learned that Alosi told inactive players to form a wall on the sideline to keep players from crossing over the sideline during punt and kick returns.

the Jets uncovered information that Alosi told the inactive players standing near him to form that wall. One player, Jeff Cumberland, told ESPN.com that Alosi has been telling inactive players to do that all season.

"We've been doing that since the beginning of the year, standing right there. Sunday was not the first time that we'd been doing that," Cumberland said.

Alosi will likely never work for the Jets again, and with this controversy the Jets have become the most hated team in football as they are being called cheaters by many pundits.
