Prime Rib: Belichick Rips CBS' Casserly For Tom Brady Report

Belichick Highly Critical Of CBS Report That Brady Is Playing With Three Broken Ribs

FIRST ON THE SCENE? ESPN’s Bill Simmons yesterday used Twitter as a vehicle to express his latest thoughts on the Worldwide Leader and its well-publicized social media policy. An article posted on ESPN.com Sunday about injuries to Brady cited both Casserly and ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Simmons, however, made it clear that he first reported Brady’s broken ribs in a Twitter post on December 10. Simmons yesterday linked to his previous Tweet about Brady’s injured ribs, and wrote, “Apparently ESPN's new social media guidelines don't cover giving Casserly and Schefter credit for this.” Simmons proceeded to post links to two more Twitter posts from December in which he reported Brady’s broken ribs, including one that read in part, “Whatever. Nobody believes me.” Simmons then took one more thinly-veiled shot at ESPN, writing, “Believe me, I don't care. The whole ‘scoop’ thing is overrated. But what's the point of governing Twitter if you don't take it seriously?” (Brian Helfrich, THE DAILY).
