A transcript of Belichick's prepared testimony:
Senator, we live in a world that has sidelines, and those sidelines have to be guarded by men with hoodies. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Senator Feinstein? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for Mangini, and you curse the Patriots. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That our videotaping, while tragic, probably saved sacks. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, won games. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that sideline, you need me on that sideline. We use words like 33 Buzz, 11 Cross Rabbit, 22 Sticky Z. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending against high-powered offenses. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the perfect season that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up some pads and run a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.
