Not too mention wearing warm clothes alone doesn't offset hypothermia. Why do mt. climbers get frostbite? They climbing Mt. Everest in Bermuda shorts? There are a number of tragic situations when people were stuck outside in the elements too long & died.
And Belichek would have the audacity to not only expect his players to uproot their lives, but then expect them to drag their whole families out of the home so that they can be available to watch tape? That's the thinking of a psycho despot.

SB - Regular Season - matters not. Go to GB in Dec/Jan. My point is, the game gets played in extreme cold every year and it never seems to be a fuss.
Funny, but the coaches, owner, league, media, and players all don't have a problem with this, but yet you run around screaming that a football coach is endangering his players lives by expecting them to fulfill their responsibilities.
You talk about circling your job around your life - must be a nice job you have. In case you haven't noticed, there's far more unemployed than there is jobs these days, and when you get a good job today, you're expected to toe the company line, or you'll find yourself toeing the unemployment line. Sux but it's true.
When your job expects you to be somewhere at a certain time, and you're given plenty of notice, you don't use the weather as an excuse. You're expected to accept some responsibility when you take a job and apply a little common sense - plan and prepare.
