Bill Belichick was a Buccaneer long before Tom Brady

Take a look back at this old Halloween photo of Patriots head coach Bill Belichick.

Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady appeared on The Howard Stern Show today and discussed a variety of topics, most notably his departure from the New England Patriots and the perception that things had soured between him and head coach Bill Belichick.

Brady, to his credit, tried to put that notion to rest. But no matter what happens in Tampa Bay for the future Hall of Famer, Brady will always be tied to Belichick. And, it seems the two have more in common than we knew. In fact, Belichick was actually a buccaneer long before Brady.

Take a look.

A smiling Bill Belichick is certainly a sight to behold.
