Bill Belichick shares a lengthy explanation on his dislike for coffee

America may run on Dunkin’, but Bill Belichick does not

The New England Patriots coach admitted he’s not a coffee drinker. So when he made his weekly appearance on WEEI’s “The Greg Hill Show,” Belichick was asked why. (And, honestly, I’m wondering: how?)

“Because I don’t like coffee,” Belichick deadpanned. “Look, I mean I understand I am probably missing it, but I just don’t like coffee. I can’t stand the smell of coffee. I don’t like coffee ice cream and I like every sweet that has ever been made but that’s not one of them. I don’t like coffee flavored anything. I don’t know. I just don’t have the taste for it. I’ve tried, but just doesn’t work for me. My grandmother put a glass of milk and poured like probably a symbol of coffee and I couldn’t even drink that. It’s just one of those things I didn’t develop a taste for.

“Nothing against coffee. Nothing against Dunkin’ Donuts. Nothing against anything, it’s just not for me. I don’t have a taste for scotch either.”

First of all, that’s a longer answer than Belichick generally gives about most football-related topics. Plenty of detail.

Second, no scotch either!? My goodness, Belichick hasn’t lived.
