What is unethical about sharing your former teams tendencies with your new team? Not that it would help though because last year the Ravens had a doofus running that offense so everything is different.

I mean, he could just as easily share defensive tendencies. It's not just the offense he can offer advice on.

I can see this both ways. I can understand why Weddle wouldn't say anything. But at the same time, the Ravens released him, and one of the consequences of that is the player potentially going and giving his new team a scouting report.

I don't really think it's an ethical matter at all in Weddle's case, but simply a personal choice. That's different than the Fiers matter, which to me is a bit more of an ethical conundrum.

Regardless of your feelings on the Astros' situation, Fiers is a scumbag for being a part of that locker room and seemingly benefiting from the cheating (he got a World Series ring didn't he?), then ratting them out once he left. Seems like the type of guy who is just out for whatever benefits him at the time. It benefited him to shut his mouth when the sign stealing was going on, and it benefited him later to tip his new teams off to the sign stealing.
