Patriots coach Bill Belichick not a coffee nerd

Bill Belichick says he has plenty of vices. Drinking coffee isn’t one of them.

Ditto Scotch.

While he may now pump up “Subway” with his commercial appearances, you won’t catch him peddling Starbucks or Dunkin’ any time soon.

The Patriots head coach abhors coffee-flavored or coffee-smelling anything. Never has, never will.

“I understand I’m probably missing it, but I don’t like coffee. I can’t stand the smell of coffee,” Belichick said during his weekly visit on WEEI’s “Ordway, Merloni and Fauria” Monday. “I don’t like coffee ice cream. I like every sweet that has ever been made, but that’s not one of them.”

Chalk it up to an interesting little quirk about Belichick.

“I don’t like coffee-flavored anything. I don’t know, I just don’t have a taste for it. I’ve tried, but it doesn’t work for me,” he said. “My grandmother put a glass of milk, and poured like a thimble of coffee in it, and I couldn’t drink that. It’s just one of those things I didn’t develop a taste for it … I didn’t develop a taste for Scotch, either. I tried that. But I couldn’t develop a taste for it.

“Nothing against coffee, nothing against Dunkin’ Donuts,” he went on, “it’s just not for me.”
