So, it sounds as if you haven’t really been following this at all, since that isn’t how Belichick has been coming across. They recently completed spring practice and it was noted how much sharper everything was run, but how BB seemed to really be having fun and was coaching up kids at all positions (not “military grade” degradation as you suggest). I’ve read your posts on the main forum and your takes are typically bad there as well, so this is not surprising. Still, thanks for sharing!
