Patriots coach Bill Belichick, who worked for several seasons with Bill Parcells as an assistant coach and coordinator, issued a statement Saturday night after it was announced that Parcells was voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

“Bill Parcells has been thought of as one of the all-time greats for a long time, so it is with great pride that we can officially refer to him as a Hall of Famer. He deserves all the recognition he is getting and for his career to be celebrated in Canton forever.”

    Class guy Bill. You helped to get him there.

    He misinterpreted the rules

    He deserves it, but maybe he stepped on too many toes.

    Bill. You are a class act. I agree with the comments made by San Diego Dreamer. I know that without you, the Giants never would have had their great defense. I am from NJ, but still pull for New England. I have taken a great deal of abuse at work due to the result of the two super bowls with these two teams. The games were too close for either team to have clearly won especially with the lead changing numerous times. I believe that in the first super bowl the lead changed 5 times. There should be a two out of three series. You and the Patriots would definitely have won that scenario. You would have made adjustments which would have resulted in winning the final two games of the series. I am confident of that.

    If you need any help, let me know. I was voted the best chess player in my class!

    All the  best to you Bill and remember, you will be in the Hall of Fame as well after you beat Chuck Knoll’s record for the number of super bowl wins.

    Sorry that I misspelled Chuck Noll’s name.

    I miss his media reply,s, he was funny as hell, it was great to lisen to him, it was his way of taking any pressure off from the players, it make them loosen up for the game, his personality was mirror like to myself in real life really, I miss him being into the coaching the game, good luck Bill, take care, good for you, you deserve it.
