Tweet of the Day

Today’s Tweet of the Day comes from Christian Fauria, former Patriots player and current Boston media member with WEEI. Fauria was showing some appreciation for his former head coach Bill Belichick following last Sunday’s loss, an admirable trait that often goes unappreciated, but obviously not with his players. (assist to Joe Giza for the original post)…

What I love and respect about Bill? Regardless of how OBVIOUSLY bad his team played he would NEVER call out a player or a position group postgame & blame them for a loss. It's, "I need to coach better" "I didn't have the team ready". @RochieWBZ @WEEI @GreshFauriaWEEI @Patriots https://t.co/K9rSJHSNtU
