But I don't think MS is as good as Belichick.
The only other option is to think MS is really not a good speaker, and has lost his mind and possibly doesn't know what he's doing. Unless he's got alzheimers which would answer why his statement are different form his sons at times and why he says some of the things he does then I have to go with the fact he's trying to with hold, hide, or keep from being made public information that we fans and the opponant really don't need to know.

Every coach says coachspeak. Mike Shanahan sometimes cannot help himself "revealing" something, like that whole cardiovascular endurance quote.
