Bill Belichick actually attempted to have fun at some point in his life? The same guy who has made a living out of snubbing people on post-game handshakes? Maybe he was just trying to fit in with society, but the Patriots coach told reporters during his press conference on Friday morning that he was dressed up as John F. Kennedy for Halloween during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Belichick would have been 10 years old during the Crisis, so that actually kind of makes sense.
While all the other kids were dressing up as ghosts and monsters and whatever other fun costumes kids came up with in the 60s, little Billy decided to dress as the most important man in the world at a time of crisis. The ironic thing is Belichick probably takes his coaching job more seriously than JFK took his presidency, and I’m not saying Kennedy wasn’t serious enough. He probably lost point with the judges for being too serious.
