Bill Belichick, Pamela Anderson, and Former NFL Long Snapper David Binn -- Sports Doc Shares Quite a Story!

We assume he was kidding. Though Dr. Chao may not hold any records with the Chargers, he has been affiliated with the organization for decades, and he was there during most of Binn's tenure with the team. So he knows, based on his own observations, that Binn was eminently qualified for the Pro Bowl selection, with or without Anderson's help. However, Anderson offered Binn an advantage that other AFC long snappers didn't have. As Chao asserts elsewhere during that interview, "This doesn't surprise me. Bill Belichick is next level!" As, indeed, is Pamela Anderson, who at 54, still stuns:

So we can't necessarily blame Belichick for hoping that her presence might give the 2006 AFC Pro Bowlers some added motivation when they took the field. Anderson may not have been there for practice that day, but she had obviously been on Belichick's mind. Belichick, the same guy who once said, "As you know I’m not on Snap Face and all those. I’m not too worried what they put on Instant Chat,” knew way back in 2006, before social media was much of a thing, whom the blonde Home Improvement and Playboy megastar was dating. He then used that information to strategize for the Pro Bowl, a game he went on to win 31-28 on a last-second field goal, snapped by Binn. That, indeed, is next level.
