He has little choice here I think if he wants to keep his job. But it's still kinda cowardly. He cites the Capitol protest as his reason.

EDIT: His quote:

quote:

"Above all, I am an American citizen with great reverence for our nation's values, freedom and democracy," Belichick said in the statement. "I know I also represent my family and the New England Patriots team. One of the most rewarding things in my professional career took place in 2020 when, through the great leadership within our team, conversations about social justice, equality and human rights moved to the forefront and became actions.

"Continuing those efforts while remaining true to the people, team and country I love outweigh the benefits of any individual award."

They should fire him for even thinking about it.

Wonder if he'll change his tone when they start clamoring to change the name of the Patriots.

Honestly, the Medal didn’t need to be associated with scum like Belichick.

Now we know Brady was both the real winner and the real Patriot.

I couldn’t imagine having such a poor grasp of my own ideals that I want to shut other’s down.

Not going to blame him for not taking it. He's at the end of his career. Why in the hell would he want to stir the pot?

Don’t see the reason to give him a medal, but Belichik probably realizes the new NFL will not accept being nice to Trump.

Damn, cancel culture done robbed him of such a wonderful, once in a lifetime honor. Dude had to make a business decision on that, and probably family concerns as well.
