NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and Senator Arlen Specter (R-Pa.) will meet on Wednesday to discuss Specter’s concerns regarding the Spygate and the league’s handling of it.

The meeting will occur in Washington, at Specter’s office.

In the days prior to the Super Bowl, Specter went public with concerns he had expressed to Goodell regarding the September 2007 cheating scandal involving the Patriots.  Specter has focused on the league’s decision to destroy evidence of cheating confiscated from the Pats.

On the same day that Specter’s concerns became known, the New York Times provided the first quotes from Matt Walsh, a former employee of the Patriots who might or might not know about other cheating that did or didn’t occur.  The next day, the Boston Herald reported that the Patriots videotaped the Rams’ final walk-through practice prior to Super Bowl XXXVI.
