“Tom Brady is best described as Lance Armstrong without the bicycle.”
Much of the sports world has been up in arms after Bill Belichick was reportedly snubbed in his first year on the Pro Football Hall of Fame ballot.
Former ESPN pundit Rob Parker isn’t among those who believe that Belichick — who won eight total Super Bowls as a coach with the Patriots and Giants — deserves a spot in Canton.
For Parker, Belichick’s snub is rooted in his involvement in both “Spygate” and “Deflategate” – which ESPN’s Seth Wickersham and Don Van Natta Jr. cited, via sources, as one of the reasons certain voters on the hall’s 50-person committee did not grant him a gold jacket during this voting cycle.
Longtime NFL reporter Armando Salguero — who presented Belichick as a Hall-of-Fame candidate to the committee earlier this month, agreed with that sentiment on NBC Sports Boston.
