I hear you. But the Commish's job is different from BB's. He's got to forge coalition's with billionaire owners, cowtowing while still being respected by them. He's got to be a salesman for the game, not just a figurehead. Sorry, just giving my first impression. Not that first imprssions are important or anything...PYPER said:I think it's way to harsh and judgemental to call him an airhead.

Give the guy a break for the time being. That's got to be nerve wrecking to go on National TV for the first time knowing that everyone is trying to size you up.
Keep in mind, Belichick doesn't exactly have the most powerful of presence's but he does alright managing this operation here in Foxboro.
