Quote.

I think Bill Belichick is the most misunderstood person in all of sports.

He is dope as blank.

That strikes me is something we need to dive into just a little bit.

And Marcus Spears I'm starting with you is because I think you might know a little bit more about this than I do.

Do you believe Bill Belichick is dope?

I don't know what Cam Newton's interpretation of dope is, Um, but I would not attach it to Bill Belichick.

That's just because of my interpretation of what dope is like now to camp and the characteristics.

Obviously, he was around Bill.

He would consider him dope, right?

Like I consider Nick Saban cool like Thio.

To put this on a symbol of playing field, I consider Nick Saban to be cool and public perception could be he is Ah, blank.

And he doesn't like a lot of people.

And he is disrespectful because you see him hollering and all that here.

Cool.

Dude, I wouldn't call Nick Saban dope like like dudes that I think of this dope is like Jay Z like Rick Ross.

Uh, my my, My my brothers, my constituents.

Dominique Fox work.

Torrey Smith.

I played with Tory Baltimore Tory's dope.

Ryan Clark is dope like So I don't know what the definition of dope is.

That Cam is giving the bill, but that damn magazine cover ain't dope.

That ain't dope.

That's not like like I use that word G.

I feel offended a little bit that can decided to give that word to Bill Belichick.

Nothing about Bill Belichick is dope.

He may be cool, but I have not.

One time, Dominique, by work and tourist Smith seen Bill Belichick do something and say, Oh, you know what I wanna do that.

But successful, he's We're grading on a curve.

I think that's what happened.

Cam Newton came there with a certain expectation of what he was gonna meet, and then what he saw was different.

And he was like, Oh, man, that's dope.

But just grading on a fair scale, like nothing about Bill Belichick, and I don't think Bill Belichick described himself is dope.

I think he might ask us to define it.

He'd be confused and and not know what to say.

So Bill Belichick holy hoodies are not dope.

Bill Belichick, saying no days off after winning a freaking Super Bowl is the furthest thing from dope that I've ever seen.

Winning a lot of simple, though.

That's pretty cool.

That's impressive, but it ain't dope.

Cam Newton, of all people with his hats and everything, looks like Bill Belichick and says, I want to do that now.

I'm sorry, Tory.

I I got a little that that magazine cover upset me and made me angry.

My bad Tory dope.

You have to consider the source.

You have to consider the source.

Cam Newton is a man that is comfortable in his own skin.

He's going to be him regardless.

Doesn't care what you think.

He's going to dress, how he wants to dress.

He's confident in it at all times and is literally a lifestyle.

It's not just for you think it's for him.

Now, on the other side of that camp is considered a fashion icon.

Whoever knew that Bill Bell checking is cut off sleeves was what brought them to together.

Bill Belichick is a fast I find that way, too, so that's why I can't believe that he is dope and he's a winner.

And also I heard Camp say this all year long.

Talking to him, That's my boy, right?

And hearing him talk about how Bill Bell check is an historian, the way he's honest with everyone.

Sometimes it's about the personality that we don't know.

He being the guy that just authentic Riel and Cam translated that as dope.

But I'm gonna go ahead and roll with six rings being doped to me.

Dan Graziano.

Here's a question.

I'm sure you are not anticipating being asked when you were in Journalism School of Georgetown once upon a time, but you've covered the National Football League for a decade.

Do you believe that Bill Belichick is dope?

I hear on culture Wednesday.

I defer to others uh, Thio, dope, dope, nous or whatever Whatever the whatever the adjective e gotta say.

Torrey Smith is really good at this.

He started out like playing along with the gag, and then he kind of pivoted to like a really bit of insight about how Cam and Belichick interacted this year.

That actually things Guy is a natural man.

I'm telling you, Dominique Fox Worth, You're right.

You're right.

We should all be concerned But anyway, look to that point.

These two guys got along well, They liked each other.

Cam's looking for a job.

I'm sure it helps his prospects.

If Bill Belichick knows publicly that Cam thinks highly of him, and uh, and maybe that helps him have a chance to get back with papers.

Maybe it's a calculated no, no, no.

Can I actually don't think that Bill Belichick takes that as a compliment?

Like you think Bill Belichick aspiring?

You think it hurts something?

I don't think he's offended like that.

The I am athlete podcast is a very good one with Brandon Marshall and Chad Johnson like those guys, they strike me.

It's kind of dope, But Cam Newton kind of dope.

Bill Belichick?

What?

He's a winner.

That's all we could give him.

He's a great coach, and I don't think he wants to be dope.

I will say this, Do you hear it is G?

Go ahead, Marcus give you the final down to.

That's what This is what it boils down to.

We will never put dope and Bill Belichick in the same sentence, and I don't give a damn who says it.

He's not know who successful all of those great things about sports.

He is that.

But I ain't attaching dope.

Tow Bill Belichick because nothing Bill Belichick has done outside of winning six rings has made me say, Oh, I want to do that.

So let it be written.

So let it be done.

Who better to give the final word on that than Marcus?
