What was up with the Bill Belichick shove?

[GhettoDogAllStars]

Of course it was rude, but Belichick is generally a rude person. You can't really expect him to tap the guy on the shoulder and politely ask him to move -- it's not that kind of environment after a game. However, any normal person would have gently pushed him aside with their arm somewhere around the reporter's waist while asking to be excused.

That said, you have to look at it from Belichick's perspective. This is IN New England, and Belichick probably knows the reporter personally (as well as most of the other NE reporters). He has to deal with this after EVERY game, and it has to get frustrating. It's possible that he has repeatedly told all the reporters to give him room after a game, and they don't honor his request. If that were the case, I would have probably done the same thing.

Another thing: people are rude every single day. That's not news -- even if it was the great almighty Bill Belichick (who we already know is rude anyways).
