Bill plans to write a book


This wont be a book on the patriots I am sure. It will be some sorta coaching philosophies or scouting like how thinks as an ode to his father. He isnt one to go out spill his guts like kraft.

I agree, I think this is probably something he will work on this year to pass the time. He will probably get back into coaching next year for a couple years after his book gets some buzz. His "tell all" will come in 5-10 years, but even then, it won't really be dramatic - it will probably just be more of a recollection of his career and life as he remembers it, some of which will probably conflict with previously reported versions.
 
He's done. He's seen the writing on the wall. The league has changed. Smart move, I'm sure it'll be a best seller.
 
I don't know why people hate Bob Kraft so much. Maybe for some, there needs to be a bad guy. There needs to be that black and white, good and evil dynamic when it comes to fandom. It's really shades of gray but people don't want to see it that way. There needs to be that boogyman out there when some can pin their frustrations (both real and imaginary).
 
I wonder if that means he's done coaching. I also wonder if he goes full scorched earth on Kraft.


Why would you think that this has anything to do with him being done coaching? This is a guy who has been used to working 18+ hour days for most of his adult life, the probable TV gig alone is not going to be enough to keep his mind occupied.

He's not doing TV. He already turned down offers.
 
Breaking down offenses to expose weaknesses and coaching JAGs on defense to elite levels, by Bill Belichick.
 
  • Snarky: How to run a sports team like a branch of the military

  • What I actually think: A book on football history. Not just the players but how different schemes came into play. I think it will be more about the coaches and how they used different players to make them their best.
What I'd like: A reply to The Dynasty.
 
I'm still waiting on Malcolm Butler's book.

This does happen sometimes (i.e. how people reviled TB12 and the Pats for two decades). Other times, though, it's the things you say and do---not some boogeyman complex--- that make people dislike you (i.e. Kraft, Goodell).

But Bob already said he wasn't pleased with The Dynasty.
