When Bill Belichick speaks, people listen. And what they come away with isn't always positive.
It is, however, downright funny. Take a look at how media members responded via Twitter to Belichick's Saturday media conference on Deflate-gate.
And then, check out these posts on Twitter.
If you thought the idea of Belichick defending the New England Patriots' in-house investigation of under-inflated footballs during the AFC Championship Game was laughable, you weren't alone.
(P.S.: The same day Belichick was speaking, NHL commissioner Gary Bettman was enlightening the world. Coincidence?)
