Apparently I wasn't the only one that thought Belicheat was being a sore loser when he pulled his disappearing act before the Super Bowl was even over.
On more than one occasion this year, Bill Belichick and the Patriots have run up the score on an overmatched opponent, and forced an opposing coach to sit there and watch his beaten team go through the motions while their heineys were being handed to them.For what it's worth Ravenwood bet the Giant's moneyline this weekend and made a killing. Oh yeah!But when the shoe's on the other foot, and Bill Belichick's team has been beaten, he can't sit there and take the pain for a few seconds.
With :01 left on the clock, and his team just having failed on a last chance 4th down effort, Bill Belichick ran onto the field for a quick handshake, and then bolted for the locker room.
Belchick may be a dick (and I wouldn't want to have to argue he isn't) but I don't think this proves it. He already met Coughlin at midfield, and congratulated him (or planted a bug) there wasn't much else to do.

As a life long Giant fan (who had Belicheck seated just right of Bill Parcels the last time we won a Super Bowl) I was pretty disappointed in the man he's become.
Just an out and out bitter old bully.
I have a sense that when Congress gets done with its investigation (yeah, its a worthless thing to engage in - whatever) we're gonna learn a lot of dirt about the NFL and Belicheck is gonna go down.
And don't think Major League Baseball isn't hoping thats the case.
