Bill Belichick doesn’t care what you think. And he doesn’t care what he looks like, either — even if that means he ends up looking like he got in a fight with a set of scissor.
The New England Patriots coach showed up to a press conference on Wednesday wearing one of his classic sweatshirts (without a hood). But perhaps this sweatshirt had seen too many press conferences — and practices and games and trips to the gym.
The sweatshirt was old. Very old.
So when the Patriots coach stepped up to the microphone for a virtual press conference, the New England media contingent tweeted out photos of him, which created an avalanche of jokes on social media.

Thank you, Belichick, for being you — always and unapologetically.
