BB has an incredibly eclectic group of friends; Charles Barkley, James Brown, Bill Russell, Jon Bon Jovi, Lenny Clarke, Denis Leary, Tony LaRussa, not to mention all his football coaching friends.

You can judge a man by the company he keeps and I think in BB's case it certainly speaks to him having a truly dynamic personality behind the facade we see in the media.

Great stuff. Interesting how JJ and Belichick are/were so different personality-wise (mainly with Johnson being a rah-rah extrovert type), yet share the traits that count the most in coaching in the NFL: off-the-charts intelligence, zero tolerance for B.S., and an ego-driven competitiveness that borders on maniacal. Both these guys are far better coaches than Parcells ever was imo--Tuna's ego always just there, and never really that justified.

I hope BB goes out on top when he does. I think Brady and some of the other guys "get" this, and that's why every year the NEP don't win the SB it's a huge disappointment. The Patriots should have been the favorites to win it all every single year since 2004 imo, so the term 'snakebitten' has started to come to mind too often.

It's going to feel very anti-climatic and disappointing if BB retires without another ring. He's come so close so many times since 2006 it has to really sting. That's a good thing though--feels like he and Brady will.not.stop. until those 4th and 5th Lombardis are in Foxboro.

OK let me say this first he has to get 4 before he thinks about it but once he gets 4 or even 5 I hope he sticks it out until he has pulled everything he can out of that current group before hanging them up. One thing that stood out in yesterdays show was how Irving and Aikman felt that they could have had 4 or 5 of their own had JJ stuck around and I dont want to be saying what could have been when he does walk.

The team that won our 3 out of 4 is gone all but one or two guys and this is a new group and it would feel much better if we knew he gave this new group every year he can to make sure he gets every ounce out of them if he walks once this group starts to fade before having to rebuild again then so be it. problem here is he rebuilds so fast he may never have a clear window to walk away without leaving us wondering.

I don't think there is a Patriot fan, who wouldn't like to spend an hour with BB. I'd kill for an opportunity like that. He just seems like such an amazing person. I have no problem admitting my man crush for BB. He's a football god as far as I'm concerned. If you haven't had a chance to watch- A football life: Cleveland 94, do yourself a favor and watch it (if you're a BB fan), its amazing how many great football minds worked FOR Belichick in Cleveland, and to hear them still talk about him even today, it's a true telltale story of his greatness.

Going back on topic, I always hated JJ, but, I remember the clip on tv when he pretty much defended BB after spy gate saying he did the same thing, and knew dozens of other coaches did too. I liked him from that point on. His "A football life" was quite interesting too. It's one of the few shows The NFLN gets right.

I lived in Dallas during his dynasty and that team could have been the first to win 3 SuperBowls in a row. Then their egomaniac owner, in a bar says anyone of 50 coaches could win with his team. The next year they lost (without Johnson).

The Boston Patriot

I don't get the NFL channel. Is there any other place to watch this on the web?

Thanks,

TBP

Hopefully this doesn't come accross as making excuses, but it seems like there have been forces outside of the Pats working to keep the Pats from winning it all more often. It almost feels like the sort of underhandedness so prevalent in politics.

I will just cite the example of the 2007 Superbowl when the false report about the Pats having taped the Rams' walkthrough broke two days before the Pats were getting ready to try and make history by going undefeated.

In addition to the enormous pressure that the Pats had been under by staying undefeated following in the aftermath of Spygate and the subsequent "F U Tour", the Pats had to deal with this additional issue and even threats of subsequent congressional investigations.

It really seems that there were external forces at work to ensure that the Pats would not get the recognition that they had worked for.

After Spygate, it would have made some people look bad if the Pats, without cameras, and with intense scrutiny of their every move, and outright cheerleading against them by media, had gone on to go undefeated in such a dominating fashion.
