Howie Long of Fox NFL Sunday referred to colleague Jay Glazer's copy of the Patriots spy tape as the "Magruder" film of the NFL. Host Curt Menefee asked if he meant the "Zapruder" film. Long made up for the blunder with his humorous attack on critics who want Belichik to wear a hair shirt forever.
"People say, 'He's not remorseful, he's not contrite enough.' What do you want him to do? Go on Oprah and cry? Bill Belichick is Bill Belichick," Long said.
Terry Bradshaw then delivered a oddly dismissive comment on ex-Dolphins coach Don Shula, the winningest coach in NFL history, for criticizing Belichick: "I didn't even know Don Shula was still around. Who cares? Let it go, Don."

In a one-on-one interview Friday with NBCSports.com, Belichick was asked whether his Patriots had been breaching end-game etiquette by scoring late on teams.
"I've been coaching too long," Belichick said. "I remember being on that side. When I was coaching defense it was my job to keep the score down, not theirs. When you're playing defense it's your job to stop them. It's not (the offense's) job to not score. It's like I tell the offense, what the (bleep) do you think I send you guys out there for? To punt? We have a punt team for that. That's not your job. Your job is to go out there and score points. If you come off the field and you haven't scored points you haven't done your job.

"Gymnastics is not a sport because Romanians are good at it." George Carlin, comedian.
"I think Nadia's--and Nelli Kim's--perfect tens will ruin the sport. They imply not only that they can never improve but also that no one will ever perform better than they did. The sport may become stultified. It certainly has been cheapened." ABC Sports Producer Roone Arledge, October 1976 Playboy interview, shows appalling lack of knowledge of gymnastic scoring rules.
And don't think for a minute that Nadia is still the little girl we first knew at Montreal in 1976.

Thom Smith, Palm Beach Post Columnist, Tuesday, October 21, 2003, on an appearance by Nadia and Bart at a fundraiser for The Children's Place at Home Safe, Delray, Florida.

"Consider not being Nadia Comaneci," Leeann Carey, Yoga teacher (2000), suggestion to newbies not to overdo themselves.
"What followed his appeal for fairness was a wave of reporting that bent over backward like Nadia Comaneci to give Kincaid-Chauncey the benefit of the doubt." J.L. Smith, Las Vegas Revue Journal, May 23, 2003.
"I want to go home." Nadia Comaneci (14), when asked by reporters in Montreal what her greatest wish was.
"We like to think that every member of these Personals is a supermodel citizen — polite to a fault, hotter than Georgia asphalt, and more limber than Nadia Comaneci." Boston.com's Personals and about 30 other such sites.
"And it's a scientific fact that the only way to keep a man nowadays is to be Nadia Comaneci in the sack." Jennifer Jenkins-Goldman, "Mercury for Her" Oct. 31, 2001
