Bill Belichick Is Sick And Tired Of Microsoft's Surface Tablets

Bill Belichick isn't a big Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ: MSFT) guy. The New England Patriots head coach went on an epic five and half minute rant on why he is done with the tablets.

"They're just too undependable for me, there just isn't enough consistency in the performance of the tablets. I just can't take it anymore," said Belichick.

Belichick has been having some bad luck with technology and is clearly fed up. On Sunday, the Patriots headsets malfunctioned, but the Patriots still pulled out the win.

Two weeks ago, video surfaced of Belichick smashing his Microsoft tablet on the sideline.

"I'll use the paper pictures from here on, because I just have given it my best shot. I've tried to work through the process. But it just doesn't work for me, and that's because there's no consistency to it," he added.

Belichick might be Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ: AAPL) biggest supporter after his latest rant. Just don't expect to see an iPad on the sidelines next week -- the NFL signed a five-year, $400 million contract with Microsoft to use the Surface tablets in 2014.
