That wouldn't have helped the Patriots bottom line.

Then again, nothing will help the Patriots bottom line at this point.

I’m glad that he didn’t accept that Medal of Freedom award. However, why is Belichek even getting this award in the first place? He’s a just football coach.

I didn't think Belichick would be so foreceful in his response given his past friendship with "him".

Good on ya, Bill.

Choosing to avoid a PR debacle.

And imagine that they are doing exactly what you wanted them to, but for all the wrong reasons.

death, failure and treason on them.

Writing, "a decision was made" is not the same as "I made the decision".

Almost none of that statement sounded like Belichick.

Methinks that the Patriots finance guys looked at the lost revenue from this season and from Kraft's Florida crap and decided that a grip and grin w/ another serial sexual assaulter might be too much liability for the organization.

Bob Kraft's south Florida masseuse has now been nominated for a medal by Trump for her "vigorous and patient handwork."
