FLOWERY BRANCH — Michael Holley is one of my favorite people in the sports business.
Our paths crossed in Ohio decades ago and we’ve consulted a various times during our careers. He was very helpful during the Michael Vick trial, so when he was writing the “War Room” I was pleased to help out.
My copy is waiting for me at the office, but SI’s Peter King has already read the book and shared a gracious book review on page 2 of this week’s Monday Morning Quarterback column. Here’s the link to King’s column.
In the book, “War Room: The Legacy of Bill Belichick and the Art of Building the Perfect Team” Holley writes about Belichick, Kansas City’s Scott Pioli and Falcons general manager Thomas

Getting An Answer Out Of Bill Belichick Is ******* Frustrating
Thrill to the master of stonewalling doing his damndest not to say anything interesting, or really anything at all about Julian Edelman's assault and battery arrest. The Boston papers sent their general reporters and not their sports writers to Belichick's presser so they could ask the tough questions. They got nothing. More »
Patriots Pressure Points: Before the Snap 10/30/11
Welcome to Pittsburgh. The Steel City. The City of Bridges. The City of Potholes. The City of Champions? Ok, enough. These two teams always play eachother hard, and this one will be no different. That's a certainty whether you want to debate if this is a rivalry or not. It will get heated. Tempers will flare. Heinz Field will be loud. Towels will be waved. Towels will be waved!
Take Two-sday!
Even after further review, there was little that Bill Belichick could have done at the lack of a review on Rob Gronkowski's would-be fourth-quarter touchdown.
Coach has their back
When he wasn’t getting grilled about Julian Edelman’s arrest, Bill Belichick was challenged yesterday on another front - the play of cornerbacks Antwuan Molden and Phillip Adams in last Sunday’s 25-17 loss at Pittsburgh.
One more time: Why the Patriots didn’t get a replay and can’t use TiVo…
One of the plays that still confuses me in the Patriots 25-17 loss to the Steelers was the Rob Gronkowski almost/kinda/not really touchdown in the fourth quarter. As we mentioned yesterday, the Patriots didn’t get any replay of the play, so coach Bill Belichick wouldn’t throw a challenge flag.
I asked him today if he knew why not.
“I’m coaching the game,” Belichick said...
Week Eight Recap: Pats Fall to the Steelers 25-17
The eve of All Hallow's Eve was not a good one for the New England Patriots, as they trailed the Pittsburgh Steelers the entire game en route to a 25-17 loss on Heinz Field in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Even though the game was mostly lopsided in the Steelers favor, the Patriots managed to shrink the score to 23-17 after scoring a touchdown with 2:35 remaining in the fourth quarter...
Patriots WR Julian Edelman meets with Robert Kraft to talk about his arrest, and Faulk understands…
We’ve already been over this fantastic exchange between coach Bill Belichick and a TV reporter over the arrest of Julian Edelman. Yes, it is a big topic.
Teammates were mostly mum, with QB Tom Brady saying, “You just move on.” He chose to let Belichick handle questions. But RB Kevin Faulk, who dealt with his own arrest a couple years ago, was eloquent on his thoughts. He divulged...
