Thumbs up Jimmy Johnson - Bill Belichick interaction from 'A Football Life' series

Last night A Football Life was on Jimmy Johnson. And of course Belichick popped up on Jimmy's boat.

It is a short cameo, but what I found interesting was the two talking about players to draft, and players to trade for.

Found the clip today...

JJ - Hit me on the head with hammer the next time I take a dumb guy
BB- You taught me that well you cant fix that

Haha BB cooler on the boat

the "Football Life" series is awesome and this was one of its better episodes so far and not because of the BB cameo. Just a really great look into the life of a man who has had success at all levels in football as a college player, college coach, NFL coach, and an analyst too.

I'll always like JJ because of how he handled Spygate. While all of the other coaches were trying to weasel their way out of admitting that everyone does the same exact thing, Johnson was 100% forthcoming. Basically said "everyone does it. I did it and everyone else that I knew did it". Good dude.

Honestly Football Life is must see tv for me. Haven't caught one that I haven't liked.

Just saw Chris Spielman last week who was one of my favorite football players of all time. Perseverance at life and dedication to family and work. Couple of tears leaked out.

Personally, I'd like to pre-order my BB tell all book right now. I'm willing to wait the 10 plus years for it to come out.

It would be a pamphlet in his own words.

In the past it has been mentioned that after every season BB would head down to Fla and discuss things with Jimmy Johnson.. BB has a lot of connections with guys like this, he was in the Pebble Beach Pro Am partnered with Nick Saban, is friendly with Tony LaRussa... been to functions where Jim Brown has described him as a great friend..

His grumpy personna is exclusive to the press and their idiotic questions..

Yup BB has connection all over. But the most out of left field friend of BB I have seen to date, is Charles Barkley.
