Bill Belichick: "Can't play football without football players."

Bill Belichick on James Harrison from PIT to NE: "We’re not talking about college, where players don’t change teams. This is professional football. It’s like that every year, it’s like that every week, it’s like that on every team. I don’t see it as some big historical event.”

Also enjoyed this one:
Can't play football without football players.
He's in 100% playoff-ready grump mood. Bring it on.

Here is a great video of BB reuniting with the first NFL HC to give him a full time NFL coaching gig (TE coach) in 1977, coincidentally the year TB was born.. It got dusty at my place, especially when the 89 year old Rick Forzano reminisced about living with the Belichicks when BB was 8 years old :

Just more to the pile of evidence showing that if you actually ask BB to talk football, it is hard to get him to stop...

How much pride do you take in developing young coaches? Belichick: "I take the most pride in winning."

I know it is in the other threads, but this has to be posted here.
Asked if TB12 would be a gametime decision, BB's response: "Today is Friday."

Just gave a death stare to a reporter asking if the game plan was adjusted due to Brady's hand. The reporter rephrased it to something about Brady adjusting based on the injury. BB: "Look, we're not talking about open heart surgery here".
I've seen a couple quotes from today. He seems cranky (the other one was the Gronk "I'll make sure you're the first to see the injury report" one). But man, this one is awesome.
Is there a link to some of this awesomeness? I'm out of market and would love to see the videos.

Belichick being Belichick, watch what happens when he's asked about @RobGronkowski's chances of playing in the #SuperBowl

Why do they even ask him this stuff though? This isn't his first year. They keep asking him dumb questions you know he's not going to answer. Come up with better damn questions!
He didn't even seem that grumpy until the reporter pushed the question, either. Dude asked for it.

He’s probably cranky because they’re in the stage of prep where they’re dealing with tickets and travel, etc.
Reiss asked perhaps the dumbest question I've ever heard from him. He's pretty good, but he basically asked whether they would do anything differently based on the fact that they haven't previously scored in the first quarter of the Super Bowl. Belichick was only mildly sarcastic and said they try to score and keep the other team from scoring and the past has nothing to do with next week. Anyone but Reiss and I think we might have had much more for this thread because there wasn't even a question really.
Jim Schwartz recalls asking BB, on his way to coaching his kid's soccer team, how much he knew about soccer.
BB: "More than a four year old."
