Belichick and Edelman Crushed on Fallon Last Night
Who’s the best talk show guest of our lifetimes? Tom Hanks has always brought it. Bill Murray back when he was still just a comic actor, before he became a godlike figure. Robin Williams back before he was dead. Chris Rock for a while there. Well all those guys can move over because Bill Belichick is the new King of Late Night.
This is how you command the guest chair. Witty. Verbose. Self-deprecating. Charming. Disarming. Throwing out one liners like Rodney Dangerfield in his prime. Don’t get me wrong, Edelman is great too. But he doesn’t have the flying hours on the couch that The Hooded One has. “That was the loudest cheer we ever heard from New York.” “Kumbaya.” “We do a lot of [meditating].” “I’ve been called a lot worse.” Gold, Jerry! Gold!
