Belichick takes headset at combine

[resdubwhite]

Imagine five head getting his jaw broken. Glazer would have made mince meat of him

 

[RobertWeathers]

Yeah that was aimed at you Polian.

You giant sized turd

What's great is with 5 SBs BB has so much street cred he can say whatever he wants and people will take it as gospel.

If he said Polian likes play Poke' Mon people would believe him.

Nice to see coach in post superbowl glow. Glad he's enjoying it.

Can somebody refresh my memory about Vrabel and the fake timeout??????

thanks in advance...
EDIT-nvm found it

Tony Dungy, stop winning, beat the Patriots fair. (Not related to enforcment of pass interference.)
>>>>Two years ago, Bill Belichick sent a proposal to the NFL competition committee looking to make it illegal to call consecutive timeouts and have violators incur a penalty for the infraction.

The committee, according to Belichick, never recommended the change to the league and the rule remained as it was. A player could call a second consecutive timeout before a play was run after the first, but the officials were not to award it.

Then Mike Vrabel came along and used the back-to-back timeout ploy to distract opposing kickers against the Colts and Cardinals. Indy’s Mike Vanderjagt then missed a game-tying 48-yard field goal try in the waning seconds and Arizona’s Neil Rackers missed from 58 when Vrabel distracted him with a timeout signal immediately coming off a Patriots timeout.>>>>

The 58 yarder [Archive] - Patriots Planet - New England Patriots Forums and Message Boards

>>>
TEMPE, Ariz. -- One of the more interesting moments of the Patriots' 23-12 win over the Cardinals yesterday occurred near the end of the first half when kicker Neil Rackers was about to attempt a 58-yard field goal.

The Patriots called a timeout to freeze Rackers.

As the sides lined up, the official announced that the teams had no more timeouts, but that didn't stop Patriots linebacker Mike Vrabel from signaling an exaggerated timeout as the ball was being snapped, appearing to distract Rackers, who misfired on the kick. Rackers had made field goals of 51 and 52 yards earlier in the second quarter, and his career long was 54. But with the wind at his back at Sun Devil Stadium, a 58-yarder was plausible.>>>

just to complete the story, a 2nd time-out in an attempt to freeze the kicker now leads to a 15-yard unsportsmanlike penalty. for non-kicking situations, the refs are just supposed to decline the timeout, but if they accidentally grant it (and then realize their mistake), the team will get penalized 5 yards.

Understanding the rules on consecutive timeouts

The same approach applies if a team has no time outs left in a given half; the officials should not grant the request, but if they accidentally do, a five-yard penalty applies.

That’s different from the existing rule that applies when a team tries to freeze a kicker. In that case, a second timeout in the same dead-ball period triggers a 15-yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct — even if the timeout isn’t erroneously allowed.

and here's bill belichick discussing it after a bills game in 2010:

The two timeouts in a row

Steve Burton: Can you explain the rule on back to back timeouts cuz I don't think the announcers knew what was goin on and...

BB: Well, you're not allowed to.

Steve Burton (Overlapping): What is the rule?

BB: Uh you're not allowed to do it. uh, If it, if you do it on a kicking play, if you do it on a field goal play it's a penalty like what happened in the Indianapolis game. You know they changed that rule after, after the Colts lost to us there in the opener in '04.

Uh, you're not allowed to do back to back timeouts on Offense or Defence but there's no penalty you're just not allowed to do it.

I like that his boat has it's own clothing range.

I would buy the "XX Rings" sweatshirt in a NY second.



BTW, where was the "VII Rings" shirt, in the wash??

Three more years and you can.

Belichick got it wrong when he said Willie made the short yardage stop "right here on this field." It was the old Colts stadium.

The man is human after all!!

He also called it 4th and 1. It really was 4th and 2.

This is great. Would love to know more about Peyton being an angry drunk. Of course, Brady drinks are few and far between as we know.

Sounds like this story when Jay Glazer almost got into a fight with Pink Head:

Here's a crazy story about how Peyton Manning almost fought Jay Glazer at the Pro Bowl

Peyton Manning should apply his post-season rule to his drinking. One And Done!

Maybe he feels he didn't flaunt the "VI Rings" enough? VII does have much better cachet though.
