10:28 AM ET 09.17 | In my review of the new NFL Films documentary on Bill Belichick, I noted that the film included a sideline encounter the Patriots??? coach had with Derrick Mason during a 2009 game. I thought the profane exchange between the two of them was just some good-natured trash talk, but Mason suggested today that he was angry about it. Mason, who played for the Ravens at the time of the incident, weighed in on Twitter today about the exchange with Belichick. "Just saw that belichick video thing all u ppl are commenting about. He might As well called me boy! Lol total Disrespect," Mason wrote. "Had I said that to him, everyone would have been in a uproar! I have to much respect for the game to speck to a coach in that manner!"

Apparently, Mr. Mason doesn't have much respect for the rules of English grammar and spelling.

It is if only for it's comedic value. Saw some dude tell Jimmy Johnson that "any idiot" could have won Super Bowls with those Cowboy teams.

Of course "any idiot" did win a Super Bowl with that team... after Jimmy left.

Perhaps stuff like this is why Mason ended up in New York and not New England when he was cut by the Ravens. Perhaps stuff like this helps explain why he was cut, too.

Paycheck should be substituted with social security check.

It is getting to a point where every word said by someone must be analyzed to the nth degree. From what I saw on the video the chatter was initiated by Mason.
