Breaking Down the Classics with Orson Welles, : or something comparable: select Boston sports media members get to watch Bill Belichick break down film of all-time greats.

Bill Belichick is a genius when it comes to breaking down film. That was a trait that he learned from one of the greatest film minds ever, Steve Belichick. Can you say; 3 IN A ROW!!!

Aw, man...and he did this for members of the media??? I guess it makes sense, though -- there are some of 'em who could really use the schooling.

Perhaps writing about breaking down films is difficult, but I was really hoping for an in depth and detailed discussion about how Belichick goes about the task. Not only am I disappointed that Bellichick did this just for the media, I'm pissed that Mike Reiss didn't write a better article.

It would've been funny if he'd decided to give 'em a scare and gone all Madden in the video session: "And why did Pepper Johnson make that play? 'Cause he came to play FOOTBALL!"

Brett Farve reminds me of Brett Farve when he throws the ball like that..the only player who could do that before was Brett Farve...its like he was playing football...like Brett Farve because thats what Brett Farve does.

Wonder how much money Ford would have to pay Belichick to come coach the Lions?

1 GOZILLION DOLLARS, which I beleive is something like 27 and 1/2 zeros.

I think it would be cheaper to just buy the Patriots and bring over whatever Lions you wanted to have play for Belichick.

I think it would be cheaper still to accept the inevitable and buy a Pats hat.

If you're in the Boston area, looks like Channel 5 will have clips of this tonight (1/6/06) on their Pats show.
