Patriots head coach Bill Belichick clearly woke up on the right side of the bed this morning.
Belichick kicked off his press conference this Friday by asking reporters if their Christmas shopping is done.
When asked the same question, Belichick replied, “Yeah, right.” He then admit that he’s a “last-minute guy” when it comes to shopping.

This hasn’t been an easy year for Belichick, who could end up coaching elsewhere next season.
Earlier this week, ESPN’s Dan Graziano reported there’s “growing belief” in New England that Belichick won’t be back in 2024.
“Whether it’s team owner Robert Kraft’s decision to move on, Belichick’s decision to step away or a mutual decision between the two parties, there is a growing belief around the NFL that someone besides Belichick will be coaching the team in 2024,” Graziano wrote.
If this is truly Belichick’s last season with the Patriots, it’s nice to see him go out with a smile. After all, he has accomplished so much for that franchise.
