The NFL Network Mic’d Up Bill Belichick For An Entire Year, And We Get To See Him Cry

by Dan Fogarty | 11:03 am, August 31st, 2011

The NFL Network wired Patriots coach Bill Belichick for sound for an entire year, and they plan on turning it into a mini-movie called A Football Life. This week they released their mini-movie’s trailer, and Belichick, who up to this point has been known mostly for his tactical genius and emotional barrenness, displays a surprising array of human-like personality traits.

Among the things we see Bill do:

- Laugh, on his boat.

- Cry, in the New York Giants locker room.

- Encourage, when he talks to Tom Brady.

- Joke, about performing open heart surgery on his childhood teddy bear.

All kidding about android emotions aside, this looks very good. A Football Life premieres on September 15th at 9PM. Here’s the trailer.

    Of course he’s mic’d for every game: NFL surveillance. Have we all forgotten that this guy cheated just a few years ago?
