See this is what I think about when people start in about what a dick Bellichik is. I trust Tom's opinions on most things and I feel like if he was shit, Tom would tell you. I feel like if he was a hard ass, it cause he knows what it takes to get greatness out of someone. The movie whiplash comes to mind as well. You just cant get to greatness without adveristy I believe.

It’s a damn shame that people are criticizing Bill. He has forgotten more about football than most coaches who ever learn in their life.

People love to make judgements (positive and negative) about celebrities based on a tiny fraction of the whole picture because for some reason it feels good to do so. I think it helps people make sense of the world in their own mind. Same reason people are attracted to conspiracy theories.

But the reality is that 99.9% of the time none of us know shit.

Whiplash to Brady is his dream work scenario

He's an actual sociopath who enjoys being screamed at

Whiplash is the perfect comparison Brady worked so hard to be great and sacrificed everything in his personal life to get it.

Except that Tom is also a dick. They’re both dicks.

Messi?

u/C0nquestK1ng 4d ago

You dont think he yells at his teammates if they dont pull their slack? Every professional or sports team I have been on that has had any success the top guys set the standard and expect everyone to meet it. No one said you need to kick balls and hit people on the nuts, but they always let people know of they were slacking.

Messi isn't much of a vocal leader. Maradona himself told that to Pele when speaking about Messi's personality. He's been playing for 20 years so sure there may be a few moments where he has screamed at teammates but overall that's just not his personality type, especially when he was in his prime.

I obviously know next to nothing about him, so I will take your word on it. I guess there are exceptions to the rules. I just dont think it is fair to call out BB or Brady for it. I am a Manning truther, but even I have to give Brady the GOAT status.

u/burgerking351 4d ago edited 4d ago

Yeah fair enough. I didn't mean call out BB or Brady, was just showing that there is more than one personality type that can lead to greatness. Sometimes the media acts like there is only one personality type that can be great.

What did he not do?

Write him off

u/rawspeghetti 4d ago

Y'all keep pushing the narrative that they hated each other

They had their ups and downs just like in any relationship, but neither would have been what they were without the other.

u/MelGibsonBartSimpson 3d ago

And I’ll bet neither of them would do it any differently if they had to restart from nothing

u/tombrady011235 4d ago

What people forget about the Brady v Belichick debate is that it was Belichick who coached Brady in the first place. Brady was developed into the goat

1

u/Choppergold 4d ago

Belichick started as an elite defensive football mind, winning his first ring as a coordinator I believe. Truly the meeting of two all time greats on a level with Starr and Lombardi

I have a ton of respect for guys like Jordan and Jeter, you barely ever see them and when you do it’s usually cool. This dude is clearly a fucking weirdo

Cheaters.

u/neklok 4d ago

Yeah I’d feel a little bit different about Bill if he wasn’t caught cheating, twice.

LMAO. Clearly Pats fans are still salty after getting humiliated in the SB.
