On January 4, 2000...

From espn.com:

"On January 4, 2000, one day after it was announced that Bill Belichick would succeed Bill Parcells as Jets head coach, he resigned and went on to become the Patriots coach a month later."

And the rest is history.

Bet the Jets wish they would have stood their ground on that contract, history of the league would be dramatically different....

May be the best hire in sports history. Thanks to Cleveland Clowns who fired him.

Rumor has a big story brewing on a power struggle between Kraft, Brady and Belichick.
Not complimentary. Behind the scenes there is trouble and this could be last year of the core of that team.

Not really sure how much leverage Tom Brady has in that hypothetical power struggle. He's the only one out of that trio with an approaching expiration date with regards to his value. Belichek isn't going to become a worse coach and Kraft isn't going broke but Brady isn't playing forever no matter how hard he fights it.
