Default Ray's Rapid Ramblings is about our boy Bill

Amusing as always. This dude is a heck of a writer.

I quite enjoyed the article, anyway.

Quote:
Bill Belichick is a middle-aged Little Ivy alum who enjoys gray clothes and lacrosse. In this respect, he’s pretty much like every teacher I ever had at prep school. The only difference, really, is that the Internet message boards do not accuse my prep school teachers of spending every waking moment trying to undermine the integrity of professional football. Belichick ignores the press, treats tenured veterans as dispensable and doesn’t write books that give all the credit to Jesus.

Loved this quote line:

"The majority of people who talk about football sound like the unholy spawn of Emmitt Smith and one of the fat southern guys on “Around The Horn.” "

Great stuff! Unfortunately, it will fall on deaf, mutant ears among the media's mass of zombies that are still overturning every other rock more than once to find more evidence of cheating by Bill B. because they just can't come to accept the fact that they're favorite team just wasn't good enough.

Heckuvaread. Great post.

In a nutshell:
Quote:
I’ve heard it said that Spygate robbed us of our innocence, which would be true if this were a nation comprised solely of lame eight-year-olds. To paraphrase Jeremy Green’s father, Spygate was what we thought it was — the football version of the old stealing-signs-from-the-dugout routine that happens every summer (and invariably involves Tony La Russa).
