I don't think that's a very sound viewpoint to take on this. The facts that Belichick happens to be the coach of a major NFL team and appears to have a very calm demeanor don't make his opinions on this matter any more valid than the next guy. It's also not a stretch to say that NFL coaches are mostly from older generations and have never had a lot of incentive to embrace computer technology. Furthermore, they head up highly competitive teams of large male athletes in a culture which prizes assertiveness and displays of aggression. Put all these things together and you get one guy who's uniquely poised to get frustrated with technology. You also get someone who's uniquely ill-equipped to speak of that technology's actual shortcomings. For instance, the way these issues are described makes it sound like they're having network connectivity issues which are not related to the particular device they're trying to connect to the network. But did he throw the wireless AP at the wall? Nope, he threw the tablet at the wall. |
