One of Jonathan Kraft's many duties is to procure hard to get items that BB requires.

"The most tiring item," said Kraft the Younger, "was unicorn blood."

"Unicorn blood," I said, "I assumed he needed blood of virgins."

"Nah," he said, "that was Mangini."  

Then he continued, "At first I thought he was crazy.  I mean unicorns don't really exist, right?  So I just go to the butcher shop and get some, I think it was cow's blood."

I nod.  Frankly, what can I ask about unicorn blood.

"So he's all like 'Jonathan, do you want me to tell your father you failed at such a simple task.'"

I was surprised at like Jonathan's like use of "like" as like a verbal crutch.  "So, he could tell.  What'd you do?"

"At first I was like really down," he said.  "I mean I figured, like, I'd never get it since they are not real.  Then I came across this unicorn."

"I mean, like, it was easy.  Just go to that Italian zoo, donate lots of money, and get a pint of blood from that deer.  And if that failed, I had a back up plan."

"So did Belichick say, 'Thank you'?" I asked.

"No, he was all calmly huffy.  'I guess this'll have to do,' was all he said."

"What did he need it for?" I asked.

"I asked him that and he just glared at me.  'Isn't it obvious,' he told me and said nothing more.  I was afraid to say, 'No, not to me, it's not obvious.'"

Well, when you think about it, it obviously is part of  potion to heal Tom Brady, but I did not want to show up Jonathan.
