Jim Rome on Steve Belichick sounding exactly like dad Bill - Dec 6, 2019

all right so let's talk about Steve bich Steve bich son of William bellich Steve bich is a thing now actually a pretty big thing even though he's been hanging around on the sidelines with the team in some sort of official capacity going back to 2012 2012 he's become something of an overnight sensation it all pretty much started Sunday night when NBC plastered his mug and his mullet and his scraggly beard all over one of the highest rate of broadcasts of the year now a lot of you had never seen him before and a lot of you thought that NBC accidentally started showing an episode of cops in the middle of Sunday Night Football you know for you really old folks listening remember back in the day when the network went with Heidi Heidi the little Swiss gal and took off a prominent playoff game and everybody was outraged that's how that felt like all of a sudden right in the middle of a Patriots game they switched over to an episode of cops like somebody was asleep at the switch I'm talking about Steve bellich and how personal appearance still is not showa F do you really need me to explain that I don't give a damn that he looks like Walter White's best customer or that it's not all right to say that he comes off like somebody who sleeps in the dumpster outside of Gillette none of that stuff matters he's not Joe Dirt he's freaking Steve bellich The Offspring of NFL royalty all I care about all I'm really interested in is what he does for a living and not how much ice that you think that he packs into a meth pipe with that being said okay I don't care what he looks like with that being said I do care how he sounds and I've got some audio for you audio of him talking to the media never mind that it's a bill bich assistant who's allowed to address the media Ian how weird is that but he did speak with the media and he is a Coach and he's the coach on a high-profile staff on a high-profile team and he is the son of the best coach ever this week the Pats have got an enormous game against the Chiefs they need to win this game to keep the bills off their backsides in the AFC East I want to play this audio bite this is him with the media talking about his memories of growing up around the game trust me when I tell you it's not what the guy says it's how he says it listen carefully yeah I got a couple memories of and you want to share good uh yeah those between me and him yeah what's the best way to we laugh about him now when did you first start watching film like he started when he was in high school um uh I've been watching it for a while uh like I said football's my thing um I remember watching Prime Time with Chris Burman back when I lived in Cleveland and just watching highlights learning going into my dad's office in uh Cleveland spending time there trying to watch film like I said I don't think I knew what I was doing but I was trying so other kids are watching cartoons you were watching film I mean yeah I just wanted to spend time around football spend time around my dad thank you Steve figure I'll ask any shot you can tell us who's calling play on the defense I got a room good and then that time Dad got kind of amorous with my sister hey remember this forever put this down mark this down December 5th 2019 the day human cloning was born yeah I know my listeners you listeners were gloss the Clones like 30 years ago this is the real day that human cloning became a thing that's not hoodie son that is hoodie's clone pretend for a second that I did not tell you the audio is from Steve listen to it again close your eyes picture the sunken solemn face of his pops do this close your eyes concentrate intently and listen and you tell me who you think this is yeah I got a couple memories of those any you want to share uh yeah those between me and him yeah what's the best way to we laugh about him now when did you first start watching film like he started when he was in high school um uh I've been watching it for a while uh like I said football's my thing um I remember watching Prime Time with Chris Burman back when I lived in Cleveland and just watching highlights learning going into my dad's office in uh Cleveland spending time there trying to watch film like I said I don't think I know what I was doing but I was trying so other kids are watching cartoons you were watching film I mean yeah I just wanted to spend time around football spend time around my dad thank you Steve figure I'll ask any shot you can tell us who's calling plays on your defense I got a room yeah it was amazing I was a kid and I was in Cleveland and my dad was the coach and we sucked and then Dad got fired and then Dad was pissed and and then we didn't know what was going to happen and then we were on to on to New England and we met Mr craft and then then my dad was smart again and then he then we were rich and then we started cutting off all our sleeves and this guy's incredible I mean it's official they're now two bill bellich in the National Football League they say the apple does not fall far from the tree right apparently the drawring doeses not fall far from the hooded cut off sweatshirt either I mean holy hell that is really scary stuff if I'm being honest really scary stuff you need some context all right do this then if you don't believe me try to pick out Steve from Bill in the next clip and Bill from Steve you tell me you try and decide which is which what difference does it make give me an F give me a c plot I mean I don't it doesn't matter give me whatever you want um uh been watching it for a while U like I said football's my thing we're going to take a day today like we always do uh yeah those are between me and him do you have any other questions really you should take it up with our public relations department which is very capably run by Stacy and his stuff yeah I got a couple memories we're just trying to win a game that's all yeah I was at the game I lived in Cleveland we're getting ready for Cincinnati I lived in Cleveland we're getting ready for Cincinnati I lived in Cleveland we're getting ready for Cincinnati Cleveland Seattle Cleveland Seattle Cleveland Seattle all right so the only way you can distinguish between the two of these guys right the only way is one just sounds angrier one is angrier one is more confident in himself because he's been doing it for a long long time the other one's a little bit sheepish but you give the kid a little more time he's going to sound just like his old man he already does he already does the reason Hood did not name his kid Hood Jr is because he doesn't have to is anybody anywhere not going to know exactly who the that kid belongs to the second he opens up his mouth again listen to the two of these guys if not for the utter disdain that the old man has you would not be able to tell these two apart we're just trying to win the game that's all yeah I was at the game I lived in Cleveland we're getting ready for Cincinnati I lived in Cleveland we're getting ready for Cincinnati I lived in Cleveland we're getting ready for Cincinnati Cleveland Seattle Cleveland Seattle Cleveland Seattle exactly the same exactly Cleveland Cincinnati Cleveland Cincinnati hug me Amanda we're just trying to win the game about your old how about your old pop you like that you like that I was the I Liv in Cleveland give me a little smooch give your brother a little smooch we're getting ready for Cincinnati I Liv in Cleveland like I said is there anybody anywhere that does not know who exactly that kid came from the second he opens up his mouth check that the second he starts talking you know both these guys have this uncanny ability to say words without moving their lips or opening their mouths at all these dudes are freaking ventriloquist and the only reason Steve does not wear a hood like his old man is because you don't need a hood when you've got a glorious Mississippi mud flap on the back of your neck I'm telling you we're a few weeks away from Steve doing Bill's teleconference calls and nobody even knowing the difference and you know everybody always says you don't know Bill you don't know anything about Bill Bill is nothing like you think he is Bill is a riot bill is a blast Bill's got this dry sense of humor all right all right if Bill's that funny you know what he'll do he'll tell his kid Steve to do the next Tel conference call hey hey Junior you know what this will be funny you do the conference call this week you deal with the media and let's see if anybody even knows I like that Dad let's do that can I I'm telling you if you can't see these guys if you don't see them you would never know who's doing the talking except for the old man is just angrier the kid does not sound angry he actually sounds all right kind of like a pretty nice kid he hasn't been around it long enough neither of them say anything okay let's be straight about that the kid might be nicer might be more approachable but he still does does not say anything at all of course he's the old man's kid neither of them say anything and they both Mumble like a bus is going to blow up if they reach a certain decimal volume they don't get too high they don't get too loud they don't annunciate too clearly and they don't say Jack so to the big question surrounding the Patriots right now of who's actually calling the defensive plays would anybody really know if they came out and they told us you wouldn't not when they're damn voice twins you wouldn't so if you've been waiting on Bill bich to leave the NFL your weight just got extended another three decades because his clone not his son but his clone is 32 years old and a haircut away from being his old man I got it wrong again and you tell me who is Steve and who is Bill that's all yeah I was at the game I lived in Cleveland we're getting ready for Cincinnati I lived in Cleveland we're getting ready for Cincinnati I lived in Cleveland we're getting ready for Cincinnati Cleveland Seattle Cleveland Seattle Cleveland Seattle in decipherable it's impossible the only way that I knew the other was the old man was with that disdain like yeah yeah I was at the game I was at the game I know yeah welcome to the show steo between me and him yeah yeah that's between me and him like like the Ken he he actually showed you a little personality as much personality as a belich can have but more than his old man I'll give you that you know where his personality comes through it's with that freaking mullet man that beautiful mullet I don't know if the old man is just old school and won't go with the Moet or is incapable of growing the Moet but that's where the kid is showing himself certainly not in the way he talks he's not allowed to say anything we know this so the kid's probably thinking to himself all right the old man won't let me talk he's like a ventriloquist I'm like a puppet all right so what do I bring to it it's got to be my look I'm going to go with the mullet I'm going to go with the scraggly beard I'm going to be my own man I can't change my last name there's nothing I can do about that I sound exactly like the guy right I'm going to go with the mullet that's what I'm going to bring to it the Mull the mullet can't take that from me I was just saying hey Dad what do you want me to do it's my haircut like I said football bar looked at me and said I can't do anything with that how about the mullet love these guys
