Shattuck: T-shirt shows Bill Belichick to be a true patriot

Bravo to Bill Belichick.

A Twitter user yesterday afternoon posted a couple of pictures of the prodigious coach wearing a shirt bearing an illustration that shocked some, confused others and pleased many more.

The text reads, “Life is great” and features a depiction of an armed man in a turban being attacked by a military dog as he’s being chased by a soldier carrying a rifle.

Is this hate-wear?

No way.

This is patriot-wear the Patriots head coach was showing off.

The shirts are sold on a site called www.tridentk9.org, run by Jim Amann, now a deputy sheriff in Los Angeles. Amann is a former Navy SEAL who was deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan with his military dog Rocky. Amman’s company, Trident K9 LLC, provides police and military K9 equipment and training, as well as the light-hearted shirt Belichick was sporting yesterday.

Thousands of military dogs are currently serving, and thousands have returned home and serve in police forces around the country after their tours are over. Many sacrifice their own lives to save their human partners.

Naturally, Belichick cut the sleeves off his shirt, but they’re sold sleeves-on.

So, Coach Belichick, you’ve got a fan in Amann, who wanted to tell you, “Thank you for your support.”

Belichick is my favorite coach and Pats are my favorite team.

The story was reported by The Boston Herald. I think that could be considered main stream.

And the pic they have is a lot clearer than the one on the tridentk9 site.

Great. When I first looked at the story this morning the picture was of Belichick wearing a Patriots shirt which wasn’t much use, so I went looking.

Could be. But around here in Pat's Country, we call him Elvis.
