Place: The mean streets of Annapolis, Maryland. Date: 1963 (approx.). Subject: Young Bill Belichick. Not Seen: Notice on telephone poll just off camera, warning neighborhood that several small pets are missing.

Yeah, looking at this photo, I have my suspicions too.

Fun facts: Belichick was raised in Annapolis, where his father, Steve (pictured), was an assistant with the Naval Academy football team. He attended Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut where he played center and tight end. He also played lacrosse and squash.

And then there were his chores. That front lawn, for instance, looks like it’s been mowed within an inch of its life. That mower was out maybe four times a week I’ll bet, often at night. Every blade of grass sheared to the exact same height. It explains so much.
