Typical </div> My opinion has nothing to do with my location. I would say the same thing about any game in which the clock read 0.00 and both teams, both coaching staffs and swarms of photographers took the field like they would at the end of the game. It's stupid to go through all the trouble of getting all the people off the field when the game has already been decided and there's a 0.00% chance of the last play having any affect on the outcome.
0.00% chance? I wonder what Herm Edwards would think about that..... <div><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/g8wS-Sg0IXY&"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/g8wS-Sg0IXY&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350" /></embed></object></div>

Hard time complimenting the Giants, no. </div> All you need to do is listen to previous coaches from SB losing teams after the game. Compare them. Belichik demonstrates by far that he is sore loser when compared to them. Last year, Lovie Smith had nothing but great things to say and talk about during the post game interview, and that's because Lovie has class. Also, George Halas, Vince Lombardi, and any of the great HOF coaches would *never* run off the field and into the locker room before the rest of their team. They had ref's trying to convince Belichik to get back over there, and he wanted nothing of it.
Belichick is a dick whether the team wins or loses. He obviously hates talking to the media, in general. Compare any one of Belichicks press conferences to any of another coach in history, win or loss, and he's going to look like a dick. He's a dick all the time. If you guys had been paying attention before Sunday, then it probably wouldn't have taken you as long to notice it. Also, Tom Coughlin said Belichick had very nice things to say about the team when they embraced. That's all that matters.
Let's give Belicheat a little credit. At least, he didn't physically assault any photographers as he was running, like a scaulded dog, for the locker rooms.

I want to know where the puppies were?
