OT: BB robs the cradle!

[Tunescribe]

It's all just pathetic and embarrassing. Bill seems to have come undone. I guess I see this decline, whatever diagnosis or etiology is relevant, as a continuation of the weirdness which he showed over his last few years here, which led to his firing.

This can happen to guys who are so tightly wrapped and driven that they exhaust themselves over a lifetime - often men of great accomplishment. My old man followed that path: got old, got weird, and just kinda opted out of everything while still insisting on the prerogatives and respect he had earned before his decline. Anyone who has read King Lear will know the pattern. It's a sad state of affairs.

Just another reminder that the importance of self-awareness grows as we age.

 

[Bill Lee]

He has said repeatedly that he does not care what anyone else thinks about this. So he will just do what he wants and ignore outside voices.

To me this means all those people so eager to defend his legacy should just take his word for it and stop making such a huge effort to defend a guy who simply doesn't care what anyone else things.

Given the man doesn't care what anyone else thinks any more, their investments in defending his worth and esteem are worthless.

Fortunately most older people have far more self-awareness than the young, whose minds are filled - particularly in this "digital age" - with superficial idees recues, ideological pabulum, asinine aspirations to "celebrity," and other sorts of prefabricated dreck.

Does he really not care?

I'd say writing a book about yourself is proof you care what people think. There are plenty of folks whose opinion he deems unworthy of wiping his ass, but there's still a substantial population group and type of people whose regard is of value to him.

At the very least writing a book indicates you have an expectation that people care what you think but I'm not sure it follows there's any correlation the inverse applies.

I believe Bill the man absolutely does care what people think even if his persona doesn’t.

Remember when Linda was complaining on social media about people giving Brady all the credit for the dynasty? She didn’t decide to post that out of thin air…

Keep telling yourself that

There is that expectation for sure.

The way I see it, he wants that expectation validated. Which requires him to care that a substantial group of people think of him highly enough to read his book of lessons.

That, or your girlfriend wants to buy more real estate so she finds a publisher who wants to cash in on your name and ghost-writes a book for you.

Lord knows where the man's head is these days. One place to look is Jordon's cooch.

I'd say "nice try" but this doesn't qualify. There's got to be a meme, somewhere, of a guy shooting himself in both feet with a bazooka. In your case this will have to suffice ...

So, we've learned today you have no friends.

I don't know what's so difficult about this.

I don't listen to 98.5.

Here're my texts with my friend:



FRIEND: Jor-don has been banned from the UNC football facility.

ME:
Banned? By whom?
Sounds like Belichick is there for one year and that’s it
By the school?

FRIEND: [LINK]

ME: Gossip

FRIEND:
I think the guy who’s reporting this was the one who first broke the Jor-don story in the first place.

ME:
Huh, I don't really know him

FRIEND:
Anyway, Now that we know they were involved when BB started driving the Patsmobile into a ditch, a lot of pieces are coming together. Morning show has her as Yoko.

ME:
Could be he "overworked." I might stick to the idea that Bobby Boy's internal mutiny couple with the brilliance of Mac Jones was more to blame. It didn't really matter if he was dating Jordon or a corpse or a JD Vance couch.

....

SOME TIME LATER:

ME: I just looked the story up. This is what passes for journalism these days?

FRIEND:
Torre was an ESPN guy. I dunno. When the larger outlets pick it up I give it at least _some_ credibility. We’ll see what emerges, but after the CBS fiasco, sounds about right.

Sporting News running it.

ME: Ah, the unimpeachable TSN. The CBS thing seemed like a hit piece to me. Of course he wasn’t going to discuss his personal life.

FRIEND: But she’s blasted their personal life all over the place? Man, you’re all in to the ashes!

ME: Let me introduce you to Gen Z.

ME: you follow this a lot closer than I do. Morning Boston sports talk, literally the ashes.

If this is true, likely that Belichick is one and done. It is a really weird take by UNC though, given what we’ve seen at other campuses. The coach of the NCAA champ men’s basketball team at Florida. Look that guy up. Google him and dating students

Gossipy drama queens. This is really embarrassing for you guys.

Gossipy drama queens. This is really embarrassing for you guys.

IDK, it seems more than just "really embarrassing" to actually be the 73 year old legendary coach and executive who is damaging his reputation by dating a 24 year old and turning over his business relationships to her, than to be one of many people talking about it Probably also "really embarrassing" to be one of his adult children right now. I'd say they are people we should express concern for. I think I'll be OK, it's not me who is being lampooned on Saturday Night Live. Regardless, thanks for your concern.

'SNL' Pokes Fun at Bill Belichick and Girlfriend Jordon Hudson's 49-Year Age Gap: 'We’re Going to Make Girlfriends Young Again'

'Saturday Night Live' poked fun at Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson’s relationship, and their 49-year age gap, during the Cold Open of the May 3 episode, in which James Austin Johnson reprised his parody of President Donald Trump.

Just stop, you're trying too hard. I have plenty of friends and like me they care enough to become informed firsthand vs. relying on someone else's subjectively biased interpretation of what is going on.

This is the lamest post ever. Are you really criticizing me because my friend alerted me to this? That's pathetic. And then you thought it was like some wild invented story, as though friends don't talk about sports.

What is going on in your brain?

 

[VrabelJr]

Disappointed that the ratio in this thread of pics of her to posts about speculation is more like 1:100 rather than 100:1.

If he really cared that much he would have stayed in the league and went for the win record instead of basically conceding it to Andy Reid.
