Show Description: In Proverbs we read that "pride comes before the fall." Well there appears to be no more relevant verse the New England Patriot's Head Coach Bill Belichick needs to read again. What a role model! Something for the kids to be proud, to look up to. What a sore loser. Most of us know how pride and arrogance can ruin our lives. Belichick had that lesson dealt to him the hard way. So join the conversation as we look at how we behave with our families and in our work places and how pride gets in the way.

Allen's Legal Pad for Pride Comes Before the Belichick
Heard it here first last week – only place I know of
Called it on air Saturday night
Go back and listen to the archive at ahs.com
Giants by 3
What to my wondering eyes should appear? 17-14 – Eli's coming
Now going to reveal how I knew with such precision - unveil
Andy thinks I am an insider gambling ring operator – Mafioso
Called the Appalachian State game against Michigan as well
But this one was different – that was a gut feel
On Super Bowl – had a direct word from the Lord
Patriots will lose – Giants will win
Like Sinai moment
2 reasons God caused the Patriots to lose
First one in our first hour tonight – again, a direct revelation
Tom Brady's immoral lifestyle
Second reason – Bill Bellicose, Bill Belligerent, Bill Belicheat was victim of his own extreme pride
Pride goes before the fall – punctured pride
Now obviously I am kidding here – sort of
No Pat Robertson – God caused the tsunami or AIDS
God did not cause David Tyree to make catch of Super Bowl history
Nor Assante Samuel to let interception slip at end
Climax with Little Jack Horner – leaving field early, refusing to heed official, end of game from tunnel – complete and utter lack of class
Sucking thumb in corner – taking ball and going home – sore loser – public hissy fit
3 time Super Bowl champion – embarrassing – trying to rob Giants of their glory and joy
No dignity – swollen balloon of prideful ego – punctured and down to Voldemort at end – little weasly creature
Pattern of pride and arrogance
Spygate – resistance to investigation and cooperation
Disdain for media
Disdain for other coaches
Disdain for other men's wives – Sharon Shenocca – named in divorce suit
You can get so big – so full – so swollen
That pride gets in your own way – so sure of self that feel invincible and then most vulnerable

Happened to me on multiple occasions – Grandmother - “God may use you; but He doesn't need you.”
Pssssssssssssst – of balloon popping
Ever been on top and lost it all?
Ever had it all and lost it?
Ever been cocksure and had balloon of pride punctured?
Courage to call and share?
Did God cause the Patriots to lose because of pride?
