FOXBOROUGH -- Bill Belichick didn't like even hearing the word. That was obvious yesterday the moment it was uttered. Years ago, before he had mastered this whole head coaching game, Belichick might have screwed up his face and told his inquisitor what he thought of him and his question. It would not have been terribly complimentary.
But Belichick is a smart man who learns from his mistakes the few times he makes them, and he learned in Cleveland that a stupid question does not always require an equally inane response. So when someone asked him yesterday about his thoughts on his team being one of the "dominant" ones in the NFL, he took a deep breath, waited a moment, then succinctly educated the media on such matters.
"The ball is inside the 1-yard line on the last play of the game," said Belichick. "Who is dominating who?"
