That would be better.”The stern Belichick isn’t done. He approaches the would-be Subway customer with scissors, which he uses to cut off the sleeves on the man’s suit jacket. “Now you look better too,” Belichick adds with a pat on the shoulder as the man’s sleeves fall to the ground. “Thank you,” the man responds as Belichick walks away.
