Bill Belichick took his first foray into the world of Twitter, and contrary to what some might think, it was quite informative.

The New England Patriots coach is known for his non-answers and his unwillingness to open up to the media. And so it was safe to assume that Belichick had little interest in the ultimate sharing platform, Twitter.

But the 60-year-old Belichick jumped into the social media world head first Tuesday, and his Q&A provided some insight into the world of one of the most innovative coaches in sports.

Belichick answered questions through his girlfriend's Twitter account. He dealt with everything from his favorite candy (Junior Mints) to his favorite Bon Jovi song ("Bounce").

A noted workaholic, Belichick called the NFL Draft "fun" and said the biggest priority for the Patriots this offseason will be "better coaching." But he also mentioned that there's more to the offseason than planning for next year.


OK, so nothing groundbreaking here, but it's definitely a cool way for a coach to engage with the Twitter universe. And enjoy it while you can, Patriots fans, because this might be Belichick's last Twitter appearance for quite some time.
