How kickass was the George Michael Sports Machine back in the late 80′s/early 90s? The hokey phony sports computer equipment notwithstanding, his show was must-see on Sunday nights– Dan Patrick and Keith Olbermann be damned. The clip below details the 1993 regular season finale between the playoff-bound Steelers and the Bill Belichick’s Cleveland Browns.
Belichick was fresh off his dumbass decision to cut starting QB and local folk-hero Bernie Kosar in favor of Todd Philcox. You all remember the great Todd Philcox, don’t you? They built a 50-foot statute in his honor in front of Severance Hall after he won his third league MVP award. Just kidding, he was a fucking bum.
Anyway, after Neil O’Donnell led the Steelers to a come from behind win, Belichick was in no mood for post-game pleasantries. He even goes as far as to leave Greg Lloyd hanging. What a class act.
Fast-forward fourteen years, Belichick has long since shed his image of a losing philanderer with the manners of pillaging Visigoth. Now he’s known far and wide as a choking philanderer with the manners of a pillaging Visigoth. Enjoy.

Ahhh, Dum Dum O’Donnell. Honorary Dallas Cowboy.
Anyway, I’m glad the Supreme Court of Public Opinion can cite precedent of Belicheck’s douchebaggery. It makes him so much easier to hate (not that it wasn’t easy before).
18-1!
Sports Machine used to be must-see-tv, but it was even better on the last Sunday of every month. Thats when they used to show the plays of the month. Fan-fucking-tastic.
Bill had already studied Mr. Lloyd’s hand-signal by video tape and realized in advance he wanted no part of it.
Bill is just lucky Greg Lloyd doesn’t take handshake snubs as seriously as he does poor grades.
Forrest Griffin just beat Rampage…it’s a Bawstawn cawnspirawseeeee….i actually did enjoy the second i spent thinking about how I fucking hate all of you…lick my shit.
what a dick
Shouldn’t Belidouche’s defense counsel, Roger Goodell, step up and tell us this is all overblown, everybody does it, and there is no more to this story?
True story, Greg Lloyd also had a shirt that said “Real Men Shake Hands”.
Belichick is a douchebag? SHOCK
In other news, the sun rose this morning!
When I was first year business school grad student at Syracuse back in 88-89, I sat next to Todd Philcox in a couple of classes. He was a fifth year senior who led the Cuse to a 10-2 record in his only year as a starter. Nice guy with a severe case of helmet hair. Had a very good looking, for Syracuse, girlfriend.
When Greg Lloyd says you have no class, you might want to examine your behavior.
Fucking Dum Dum O’Donnell tag.
I like the way this Mr. Snub thinks!
It’s all New England’s fault. They are the cause of everything that’s wrong with sports today. Oh yeah and 18-1.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA
