3 Stories: Belichick's Soft Spot, Minneapolis' Super Bowl Scene, Thursday Night Football

Bill Belichick has been at the helm for all five of New England's Super Bowl titles.

The head coach was recently featured in an ESPN 30 for 30 documentary "The Two Bills," which offered an in-depth look at Belichick's days with the New York Giants and mentor Bill Parcells.

Will Leitch wrote a story for the LA Times suggesting that the oft-hated Belichick might actually be a little bit lovable. That's up first on this week's "3 Stories You Should Know."

Also, was Minneapolis a good choice for Super Bowl 52? Should the NFL stick to warmer areas for the big game? Shira Springer gives her input after spending the week in the Land of 10,000 Lakes.

And Bill Littlefield is miffed that the NFL has signed a 5-year contract with Fox Sports for Thursday Night Football rights despite the fact that fans and players have both expressed their objections. It's the longest broadcast deal for Thursday Night Football since 2006.

WBUR's Shira Springer and Will Leitch, host of the Will Leitch Show on Sports Illustrated TV, join Bill Littlefield.
