Even the greats make mistakes. And when those mistakes are made by villainous cheats characters with reps like New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick, we all bask in their failure. Last night, when Belichick opted for his Pats to go for it on 4th down from their own 28-yard line with two minutes left and a six-point lead, every non-N.E. fan rejoiced because they knew what was coming next—a Peyton Manning game-winning drive, and more importantly, a Belichick loss.
Can’t really pin this one on Brady and the boys, this one falls squarely on the sleeveless shoulders of Billy B. However, this wasn’t his first brain fart. In honor of his blunder, here’s a list of Belichick’s biggest fails…

As the NFL finishes week 5 of action, the league has had its share of embarrassing teams (word to last year’s 0-16 Lions). The Rams, Titans, Panthers, and others are all sucking out loud right now, but no team has even come close to the on-and off-field fuckery of the Oakland Raiders. Since 2002, the pitiful squad has set a record for most consecutive seasons with 11 losses or more. Not bad for a crew whose official motto is “Commitment to Excellence”—and with yesterday’s 44-7 loss to the Giants, it looks like the Raiders plan on continuing the bullshit for a while.
From owner-vs.-coach public feuds to teammate assaults and intrastaff jawbreakers (no Wonka), the team itself boasts behavior far more self-ethering than their GWAR-tribute fanbase. Which is why we’ve taken a quick break from tallying JaMarcus Russell’s wobbliest pass attempts to compile our list of the most embarrassing Raider moments of the decade. Enjoy!

Around this time last year Charles Hamilton was a relatively unknown Harlem MC that became one of the most talked about upcoming hip-hop acts in a matter of weeks. Blogs were showing love and early mixtapes signaled promise. Hell, the first time we saw this guy spit was in a cipher with Kanye West and The Game. Not a bad first impression. But what a difference a year makes.
It’s not like we think the Sonic-obsessed rapper’s music has gotten wack (it’s still pretty consistently dope), but even his diehard fans would be hard-pressed to overlook this guy’s bizarre career missteps over the past 12 months. The latest Charles Hamilton controversy surrounds his decision to list the late James Yancey, better known as J. Dilla, as the executive producer of his debut album, This Perfect Life. The explanation? What he describes as a “paranormal relationship” with Dilla. Huh?
We give the kid some credit for keeping his name in the news in an era where fans are more fickle than ever, but unfortunately it’s become less about his music, and more about his public failures. Some of these are just normal growing pains of a new artist, but a lot of them could’ve been avoided if Charles would just take a take deep breath and log off every once in awhile. With that said, here’s a full breakdown of Charles Hamilton’s greatest fails as rated by our Rick Ross Fail Scale. Sorry Sonic…
