Belichick apologizes to cameraman for shove - NFL - MSNBC.com (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16542529/)

Is it just me or was that incident really bizarre?

I am glad he apologized but that doesn't really cut it. The media brings the sport to the people and the people pay his paycheck. Its not like he is just playing the game and no one is watching.

That was ridiculous.

I actually missed it, and my wife yelled at me to come back in the room saying Belichick shoved a guy. We rewinded the DVR and sure enough I could not beleive my eyes. He clearly dislikes the media. Can't say I blame him too much, but there is no excuse for doing that. He should be fined by the NFL for it.

there is nothing worse than media, the whole reason they cover thier mouths when they call plays, they have to tell the media to back up 50 times a game, they always want press conferences.

i guess i hate the media more than some other people. but the media does not bring the game to us. we come to the game, the media does not have to be everywhere and do everything. stupid media. im glad the dude got shoved. how many cameras and microphones do they need to shove in his face. "mr. bilicheck, please let me get a photo, do that again, wait, let me get one more shot" shut the **** up!

That was a pretty ignorant statement if you ask me. Its not like they are all from one TV station, its a competitive feild just like anything else in this world, people are competing to be the best, break the stories, get ratings and make money.

I would love it if that cameraman were to slap a lawsuit on that cutoff sweatshirt wearing assclown. Belichick looked like a drunk at a bar trying to start a fight with a bouncer.

A thread on Belicheck pushing a cameraman? Apparently we're hurting for something to talk about. I don't have a problem with it really. They have a tendency to invade a person's space, and I'm sure it gets overly annoying at times. All he wanted to do was get to Mangini and shake his hand/give him a hug or whatever, and the cameraman was impeding his way. Big deal. It's not like he pulled a Kenny Rogers on the dude.

I was laughing my ass off, when Belichick did that. I don't know why, but I thought it was hilarious! Totally unprofessional, but hilarious nonetheless.

However, I absolutely did not like when Kenny Rodgers harrassed that cameraman last year in MLB.

I did not see the incident, but the media worldwide is generally, if not totally stepping over any line of good taste, judgement with regard to what they say and do trying to get a story. Hard to feel very sympathetic. I can't really see Belichick in a Mike Tyson sort of brawl

There was just no reason for him to grab the guy and shove him out of the way like that. You would have thought Mangini was his long lost lover the way he fought to get to him. Pretty ridiculous.
