BSMW took this hack clown on today, and the good news is all the mediots do read that site to see what if anything is being said about them.
"Think about Bill Belichick’s job for a moment. Think about all the things he does. It’s goes well beyond standing on the sideline in the hoodie, which of course is the image most choose to have of him. There’s scouting to be do. Game planning. Interviewing draftees and free agents. Running the organization. Planning, running, and analyzing practices every day. Off season analysis of every game from the past season, and planning for every game of the coming season.
What percentage of his job would you says involves dealing with the media? 5%? Surely not a whole lot more than that. Is he supposed to let other aspects of his job suffer so he can kowtow to the ink-stained wretches?
There are things that you can criticize Belichick for. He’s not perfect, and he’ll be the first to admit that. How many times has he said that he needed to do a better job coaching the team? His relationship with the media (which is what this article is about…not spygate, or running-up-the-score-gate or not-winning-by-enough-gate) and whether or not the fans “like” him is certainly not something that the Boston Sunday Globe Magazine needs to devote space to.
Most of the comments beneath the piece echo what was said here. Except for some assclown, commentor John, who doesn't realize most fans would characterize him sight unseen about the same way he characterized coach...as a a-hole.
The one thing I would disagree with Bruce Allen on is the idea that anything Grady Little did was at all Belichick like. Maybe Bruce needs to revisit that time because my final recollection of Grady was his trying in part rationalize his mindnumbing decision on Pedro by hanging it on the player, which was patent BS since we all saw his exit in the 7th and knew as he did he was done. Only Grady tried to spin his moronic decisions that followed back on Pedro who apparently should have slapped his manager upside the head when he told him to go back out there, rather than going against even his pitching coach's advice. Bill never ever throws a player under the media bus. And in addition to winning championships, that's another of his truly endearing qualities that few of his peers share.
