BB hates the Jest and I like him more than ever

[Onedaful]

BB is the best ever. All time greatest coach. Someone who shares my passion for hating the Jets is a friend of mine.

 

[Jackson 2]

It was.

Thanks. Thought so, but wasn't sure.

He has spoken often of his fondness for the Giants organization

Oh I know, but I just thought it was interesting to mention teams like the Lions and Broncos and not the Giants. I'm sure there's a fondness for his time there, but I wonder if recent events (SB and regular season losses) have soured him on the brand just a little.

I wonder where that napkin is. It should be in the Hall of Fame.

Found it.

 

[1960Pats]

After 2 Super Bowl losses to them, perhaps his warm feelings have dissipated a bit.

I know that mine have.

 

[shmessy]

Usually, I don't like it when someone kicks another person or team when they are down.........

........not THIS time!

I knew this thread would be here and planned to visit it first with the express intention to 5 star it I'm so transparent

 

[The Scrizz]

Yup! BB wrote his resignation on a napkin. haha CLASSIC!

As HC of the NYJ which = GFY.

I didn't think I could admire the man anymore than I do, but this just sets him a little higher. Coach Belichick is a human and that means he has his share of faults, but this isn't one of them.

In fact, it mirrors my own distaste for the NYFJ. I've been a Pats fan since they drafted Plunkett. In all those years, through all the up and the many downs, no matter the final W/L record, I ALWAYS considered the season a success if they beat the JESTS. Beat them, and anything else is gravy. :rocker:

 

[The Boston Patriot]

I would love to hear more about it. What caused BB to hate the Jets even before spygate? Is it Woody Johnson specifically? If not, then why?

Steve Guttman for one. I would guess others in the organization as well at the time. I don't think he has it in for the 'team' as much as he does the off the field folks. I worked in a couple of places where I loathed the management but loved the work and most of my fellow employees. I suspect it was more this than anything.

 

[YearbookCurfew]

TIL I have something in common with BB.

 

[Anteros]

Apparently, some who were there said he was joking. I wish there was video or audio. Can't find any though.

It's at the 19:35-19:50 mark, from the weekly presser.

Belichick 12/4: Browns competitive in all 3 phases

Interesting parallel, aside from our fandom arrival times (I'm an '85er). I call them the SFJ and my definition of a successful season has long been 2-14, just so long as those 2 are the right wins
