And his customers could care less if he doesn’t speak to Steve Tasker. As “his customer” I find it funny as hell when he ticks off all the media guys. I for one like his personality. It’s all business. He’s into managing football games not making media guys feel good about their jobs.

To tell the truth, I like watching his press conferences now.

Also why can’t the media leave the losing team alone until the next day and give them time to compose themselves? Because watching people squirm increases ratings.

Hey, we can leave Belichick alone, but there is one small concession he has to make. He is a multi-millionaire for one reason only–because of the media. (He doesn’t have all his money because of football because thousands of players played the game for decades without becoming millionaires. ) He got the money because the media fell in love with football. So the media will leave him totally alone if he gives every penny back–every penny.

I can’t stand the jerks who say, “I want all the money but I don’t want any of the responsibilities that go along with it.”

That’s one of the funniest things I’ve ever read in my life. He’s a millionaire because of the media ????
No, he’s a millionaire because his boss has one standard for him, help the team win games. You know, a HC’s JOB. The reason players, most of whom I bet make a lot more money than BB does per year when they aren’t as good at their job as he is at his,aren’t rich is because they piss away their money on dumb stuff.

Brian Billick never defeated BB head to head and is a current member of the media so has a lot of reason to “hate” on him, but he isn’t letting BIAS infuse his opinion. I’d call that fair to the max.

Belichick is starting to become the NFL’s Bob Stoops so why do people care about what he has to say (or not say).

It is refreshing to have a Belichick in a league full of coaches who all act the same for the most part, cornball sense of humor not coming off as genuine like they are trying to make people like them. Please get rid of Shannon Sharpe, he is on the same level as Skip Bayless to me, 100% unlikeable

I can’t stand the jerks who say, “I want all the money but I don’t want any of the responsibilities that go along with it.”

I want to know why Belichick punted twice from the Baltimore 35. I want to know why Talib couldn’t come back into the game. I want to know why Woodhead and Vareen weren’t used more. I want to know what the hell happened with clock management at the end of the first half. I want answers as to why the season went down in flames and if Belichick can’t give me those answers then find me a coach that can.

Belichick’s style is growing real old with me and I suspect with other Pats fans as well.

His teams wouldn’t be nearly so entertaining without his genius helping them scheme to win games. If that isn’t inherent value, I don’t know what is. You couldn’t just put any old coach in there with the same result.

The people primarily paying his wages, if you want to look at it, are fans of New England. Judging from the outcry here in the responses from them, and the few I know in real life, they’re all quite content with Belichick behaving exactly the way he does. None of them are upset that he didn’t do a post-game CBS interview. He did his press conference and said exactly what you’d expect him to say. What more would you like out of him?

Sorry you don’t like his attitude, but that just doesn’t matter. He’s not Rex Ryan, he’s not going to give you some soundclip that you can tear up in the papers. He contributes his coaching abilities which helps the Patriots win games. That’s what gets him paid. He owes you nothing, and he owes me nothing, he owes “patriot nation” nothing. He coaches and wins games. He does what is expected of him. It’s part of what makes him so successful, and the media blinders to that is just astounding.

The Pats have 11 10+ win seasons in the last 12 years, but,

They’re 8-7 in the playoffs since 2005

They admitted under investigation to videotaping from 2000-2007 (when they were caught)”
^^^^^
Let me teach you something about football:
In football there is offense, defense and special teams. If you know anything about football other than what TMZ tells you, you’d know that the Patriots had a feared and dominant defense made up of veteran leaders such as Tedy Bruschi, Rodney Harrison, Mike Vrabel, Willie McGinest, etc from roughly 2001-2008. Their defense (and special teams) is what won Super Bowls in 2001 and 2003, while their 2004 team was the most complete offensive and defensive team in that era. While 2007 was the greatest team of all time to not win a Super Bowl (sorry 98 Vikings), that team’s make up and philospohy was different than the previous SB winners.

Now, if you knew anything about football, you’d realize that after 2006 the Pats decided to change their philosophy, and what we got was a team that was totally dependent on Tom Brady, as defensive players retired and/or became less effective. Nobody has picked up the slack on defense and this team’s foretunes have basically hinged solely on Tom Brady since 2009. Incidentally, Brady has had his best statistical seasons post-2004.

Again, if you understood football and could think for yourself beyond what the media tells, you, you’d understand that the reason the Patriots haven’t won a SB since 2004 is that a.) nobody fears their defense, b.) they turned into a physical, feared team to a finesse team and c.) a team that is totally reliant on Tom Brady. You’d also understand that the teams that have beat NE in the postseason lately -Baltimore, NYG, NYJ, all were tougher teams that went in with the intent on punching a finesse team in the mouth and did just that.

But keep spouting your Spygate/Camerahunt nonsense. To the rest of us who actually understand the game of football, it makes you simpletons pretty easy to spot and ridicule.

So it’s fair to rip him for being who he is. Though he works for the Krafts, his customers are the folks who choose to watch his team’s games
==================================
Sorry Mike but where is the poll that says the Patriot fans and customers want to hear more from Bill Belichick?

That reads like an asumption on your part.

where has these people been for umm you know his whole career? he talks like that when he wins, and loses..hes the best coach the entire nfl has ever seen, ever..the man can act however he feels he wants to.

It’s only you media types that get all butthurt about this stuff, and you all really come off as a truly unlikable group of lame, entitled whiners. To your seriously misguided point above: Bill Belichick’s job is to WIN FOOTBALL GAMES, not entertain housewives in Connecticut who don’t care about football or to tell funny jokes to sportswriters and do their job for them.
Repeat after me:
“Bill is a football coach.”
“Bill’s job is to manage his players and win football games.”
Got it?

wow, talk about a sense of self importance.

I think that fans of the patriots were perfectly satisfied with his response, and he owes the media nothing.

Especially former Bronco and Raven Shannon Sharp. Pats fans remember this guy’s obnoxious taunts and complete lack of sportsmanship and his disrespect when he was a member of the Broncos playing the Pats in Foxboro. He was 5 times worse that Suggs or Pollard and he has the nerve to claim to feel disrespected? Maybe CBS would like to send Derrick Mason over to the locker room to interview Belichick. When you go through life pooping on people every chance you get, don’t be surprised when they won’t go out of their way to may your job easier as a personal favor. Maybe if Sharp was as professional, respectful and intelligent as Curran, he might have some credibility.

Belicheck works for the Patriots, not the NFL, not CBS and not the fans. These talking heads, if they are unwilling to speak the truth and treat coaches with dignity and respect, then they should not be surprised when they are respectfully ignored.

Sharp, seriously, talking about disrespect. As if the Patriots owe him any.

PS:
Only 8-7 in the playoffs since they won three superbowls? Please, what other team has played in 15 playoff games let alone won 8 of them since 2005. #DynastyProblems
