We’ve all seen Patriots coach Bill Belichick get into it with Microsoft Surface Pro tablets. It’s happened numerous times during games, as we’ve seen him throw, slam and take his frustration out on tablets many different ways.
Well, it seems Belichick is now completely over them. He went off on a five-minute tirade on Tuesday, expressing his disgust over the mobile devices.
Here's Belichick's full answer as to why he hates the tablets. Lasted five minutes and 25 seconds. pic.twitter.com/wcSqebtQRu

That’s what happens when you have old-school, 64-year-old men being forced to use technology that’s completely new to them.
Microsoft later responded to Belichick, via ESPN’s Adam Schefter, and they really didn’t seem to care about his complaints.
We respect Coach Belichick’s decision, but stand behind the reliability of Surface. We continue to receive positive feedback on having Surface devices on the sidelines from coaches, players and team personnel across the league. In the instances where sideline issues are reported in NFL games, we work closely with the NFL to quickly address and resolve.
It was hard to see Microsoft really being phased by Belichick’s comments, given how much their partnership with the NFL is worth.
