Imaging hanging up on Bill Belichick?
Well, Randy Moss doesn’t need to imagine anything. He actually did it.
The former New England Patriots receiver was named to the NFL’s 100 All-Time Team on Friday during an NFL Network special. Upon receiving the honor, Moss joined the program’s panel, which included Bill Belichick, and offered some fascinating insight into his memorable career, as well as some incredible stories.
One of the stories pertained to the 2007 trade that brought Moss to New England. Apparently, Moss hung up on Belichick before the Patriots head coach could deliver him the good news.

“So, my phone rings, I’m in line going to the club,” Moss said. “And so my phone rings, and I didn’t know the number, and I said … ‘Hello, who is this.’
‘ … Hello, this is Bill Belichick,’ Moss said while impersonating Belichick.
” … I said, ‘Man, stop playing on my phone.’ And I hung the phone up. So, then he calls me back probably within 60 seconds and said, ‘No, Randy, this is Bill.’ So, you know, I hung up on the coach.”

Hard to blame Moss for that one. Receiving a call from Belichick isn’t exactly something that happens every day.
That said, “The Hoodie’s” voice and delivery are rather easy to identify.
