The only thing I can cheer for in Philadelphia is the national anthem.

Bill Belichick

However bad we can make them, I make them. Any time that players complain about the quality of the footballs, I make them worse and that stops the complaining.
BILL BELICHICK

Complain Complaining Ourselves Worse
That has never been a priority for me and I want the players to deal with a harder situation in practice than they’ll ever have to deal with in the game. Maybe that’s part of our ball security philosophy.
BILL BELICHICK

Philosophy Player Practice
I was out of the country for a period of time but followed everything closely through other people in our organization and we’ve made the decisions that we felt were right for the football team and we’ll continue to do that and be as diligent as we can going forward.

Country Football Organisation Team
I think we all know that quarterbacks, kickers, specialists have certain preferences on footballs. They know a lot more about it than I do. They’re a lot more sensitive to it than I am.
BILL BELICHICK

Football Kickers Thinking
I’ll refrain from making any more comments on any ongoing people involved in the judicial process.

Ongoing People Process
I feel like I’ve had a strong relationship with Robert [Kraft] and his family since I was here in 1996 and I think it’s gotten stronger every year that I’ve been here with the Patriots.

Strong Thinking Years
I’m sure that any current or past player of mine would tell you that the balls we practice with are as bad as they can be: wet, sticky, cold, slippery.
BILL BELICHICK

Football Past Player
I would say that during the course of the game, I honestly never – it probably has happened on an incomplete pass or something – but I’ve never touched a game ball. It’s not something I have any familiarity with on that.

Basketball Ceiling Character
For a team to accomplish their goal, everybody’s got to give up a little bit of their individuality.

Giving Goal Team Up
Not all teams use the same tests and certainly those tests are far from being 100 percent as well. It’s part of the process.

Process Team Tests Use
The less versatile you are, the better you have to be at what you do well.

Football Versatile Wells
So many different things happen in a split second during the course of the play, just like it is for a quarterback. The more of those things that you can do right, slow down, get the most important things, not get distracted by all the stuff that’s happening, but just really zero in on a target.
BILL BELICHICK

Course Down Happen Important Quarterback Slow Thing
All sources are not equal. When you get information, you take the information, you evaluate it, and you do the best you can with it. So, there’s a variance in the quality and the amount of the information. It’s a case-by-case basis. Each one’s different. There’s no set formulas.
BILL BELICHICK

Different Information Quality
I think a smart guy can learn. Some guys learn – it’s just like all of us – some guys can learn electronics, some of us can’t.
BILL BELICHICK

Mean Smart Thinking
I’m not really worried about the other 31 teams.
