Belichick is Pathetic. 72-year-old parades around 24-year-old girlfriend.

[Mr Natural]

It most certainly is. A public university with using public funds to hire an immoral coach IS my business.

Then do something about it other than whining on the internet.

 

[Mashmont]

But your position is one of ignorance, having zero knowledge of their relationship, so your attempt to be a moral arbiter is a failure because your position is one of not knowing anything. How can you pass judgement when you don't know anything?

I know they're cohabiting. That's immoral.

 

[Mashmont]

What makes you think I haven't?

Guys, I have the same standards in my own hiring, and it's worked out very well. If you're married, that's a plus. If you're shacked up, that's a no.

Bill Belichick is pathetic. He's three times this girl's age, and they're presented as boyfriend/girlfriend.
My opinions on the matter:

1. He should be wondering whatever got into him by taking up with someone who could easily be his granddaughter, agewise. It's a complete and total embarrassment for him and his family. Bill, in the eyes of God, you're married to your first and original wife.
2. Belichick should die of embarrassment that this girl doesn't have any clothes on. A real man would have with him a towel or robe to put around her at the very least. Me? I would have refused to go out there with her until she got dressed.
3. This old coot is kidding himself if he thinks he's this is anything other than the girl using him for his fame and money.
4. Notice in the pic and in the video if you've seen it, she's never looking at him. She's looking at the camera. That shows you what it's all about for her.
5. Bill looks as stiff and out of place as I did when I was photographed with a Rockette. That was when we went to NYC with a busload of seniors, and they offered a free photo op for anyone who wanted it. I thought "Free? What the hell?" I'm in good shape for an old guy, but I didn't anticipate how ridiculous it would look.
6. This girl's parents, particularly her dad, must be very proud. If it were my daughter, I would take her aside and ask "Are you out of your mind?" I'd seriously wonder what I did to cause her to go off the rails like this.
7. People don't admire you for this, Bill. They're laughing at you. They feel sorry for you. You think you've got it going on. The rest of us see what this is all about. A game that has played since the beginning of time, and I don't mean football.
8. Your players at UNC are laughing at you, Bill. They don't respect this. The see this girl as damaged. They think you're a sucker.
9. What on earth would he talk to a 24-year-old about? What could they possibly have in common? It's too ridiculous for words. He's a football junkie; she's home doing her nails, bored out of her mind.
10. I can anticipate a few in here telling me "You're just jealous". "You'd do it too, if you could." Um, no, I'm not, and no, I would not. I act my age and have a wife my age. Or they'll say "Why do you care?" I care because it's a bad example all the way around for everybody who is exposed to this. This is not a committed relationship. It's not a marriage. It's a sideshow. It's people who should know better playing house.
"

I understand the prejudice against these May/December things, but they do happen. I figure if she is okay with the relationship and he is okay with the relationship, so be it. It's their choice. I won't presume to judge.

So you’re fine with any immoral situation you see?

Depends on what your definition of immoral is.

 

[Concerned American]

Not even rape or murder or child abuse

Please point to anywhere in the topic or the people discussed that have anything to do with rape, murder or child abuse. The topic is Bill Belichick and his friend that you are judging. Quit trying to change to topic. You're a hypocrite and you're twisting yourself into a pretzel trying to justify the unjustifiable.

She was doing stuff like making her players fundraise for the Susan Komen foundation.

So you think it is immoral to fund raise for breast cancer research? SMH, you're an ignorant piece of work.

The old son of a *****

Such language for someone who climbs a pedestal to judge their fellow man, hypocritically.

Imagine if a player goes to his office and wants to talk about his girlfriend and relationships. What's this old bastard going to tell him?

A coach has no business counseling in personal relationships. Again, your ignorance is making a fool of you. You are part of the reason that young people are leaving religion.

Back in Kansas a prominent and wealthy dentist in his mid 40's and a 16 yr old girl fell in love. Her parents weren't thrilled with the relationship and of course it raised all our eyebrows. But it seemed genuine and the parents gave the proper permissions so the two could marry. They had an apparently wonderful 35 years together until he died of cancer in his late 70s or early 80s. She gave him four kids and they had several grandchildren when he passed. They seemed genuinely in love and happy together. She was still a very attractive woman, but I heard that she never remarried as she said nobody could ever measure up to the husband she lost.

Do I recommend or even condone this kind of relationship? Of course not. But when it turns out like it did who am I to judge?

The point is, there are issues in which you would feel free to judge immoral acts like rape or murder. Does that make you a hypocrite?

Raising money for abortion mills is wrong. Forcing kids to donut is immoral. .

Such language for someone who climbs a pedestal to judge their fellow man, hypocritically.

How dare you judge?

A coach has no business counseling in personal relationships. Again, your ignorance is making a fool of you.

Coaches counsel in a lot of areas. Did you ever play athletics?

You are part of the reason that young people are leaving religion.

No, young people leave religion because of a lack of standards or a poor example from the parents

 

[Mashmont]

Immorality is objective.

 

[Concerned American]

The point is, there are issues in ehiwhichbuou would feel free to judge immoral acts like rape or murder.

I said nothing about judging anyone--project much? YOU inserted rape and murder into the conversation that you judged a man because he and a young lady are having a mutual relationship. Something that is none of your judgemental business. MYOB, hypocrite.

How dare you judge?

I didn't judge. Please show a judgement. I made simple observation of the obvious. You, sir, are addled.

Coaches counsel a lot of areas.

Like you judge, eh?

 

[JoeMoma]

Maybe she truly digs him.

That is for certain.....if you know what I mean. That said, he also digs her....just not in the same way.

 

[DGS49]

Is there anything in the public record indicating that they are having sexual intercourse?

Why is this universally presumed in this thread? Many men of that age are incapable. Who knows what she is getting out of the relationship? Nobody.

OK, so you or wouldn't wouldn't judge rape or murder as immoral? You haven't answered.

One of the problems is her posing half naked in public appearances. The cohabiting definitely presumes hanky panky. Otherwise, why do it? 72-year-old guys can do stuff with the right assistance, I'm sure. The whole thing is a horrible example for the young men on the team. As I say, if I were president of the University, I'd fire both Belichick and the AD.

 

[Concerned American]

Irrelevant to the thread. I'm not partaking in your distraction from the fact that you are judging a man and woman who you have never met nor do you know ANYTHING about them but that isn't keeping you from judging them according to your own speculative preconceived notions. That is the epitome of hypocrisy.

The point is, and this is why you dodge the question, is you judge certain actions to be immoral just like everyone does.

Immorality is objective. It's not my 'preconceived notions'. Sex outside marriage is immoral. Cavorting with someone not your wife is immoral.

 

[Concerned American]

As I say, if I were president of the University, I'd fire both Belichick and the AD.

And that is a perfect reason why you are not. BTW, have you brought yourself to condemn the actions of the Spanish Inquisition? Of course you haven't because your position is exactly what led Tomas of Torquemada to do the unforgivable tortures and murders that he did? Hypocrite. God will judge you. It is not my position.
