Apparently there is a world, far far away, that exists only of cut-off hoodies and 1950’s haircuts where New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick lives.
That’s the only way I can explain the football mind not knowing of the incredibly popular Madden video game.
Now, I wouldn’t be shocked if Belichick said he never played the football game, but to not even hear of it? That seems like a total troll job on the part of Bill Belichick and he gets a thumbs up from me if that proves to be the case.
As to why this is being brought up, Belichick has never signed off to his likeness being used in the game and a reporter asked the Patriots coach if he’d be in the upcoming version considering he went through with recent coach headshots.
His response?
Apparently Bill Belichick has no idea that our video game exists… https://t.co/7tCufCZi3R

Q: Since you were in the coaches’ picture, are you going to be in the Madden game? BB: “What Madden game?”

To make the situation even more hilarious, Bill Belichick was pressed on his lack of knowledge on the Madden video game and suggested he knew ‘nothing’ about it and suggested that all questions regarding such should be directed at John Madden.
I don’t even.
Seriously, Tom Brady, go get this man a PS4. It’s for the good of America.
