Tomlin called "Too Hip Hop" by Dolphins Management after Interview in 2007

[Gildong Sack]

Didn't see this in the home page news stories. I saw the title of the video " Shame, Misery, and Failure Follow NFL Team's Racist Decision" and a thumbnail with Tomlin's face and thought; Oh **** what did some Steelers former player, former or current staff do or blurt out their pie hole? Just what we need a big stupid distraction right now while switching QBs and all that good stuff. Turns out it was a Dolphins exec who said it.

Anyway I'm not going to post the video. I'll post the link because there is like a 5 to 10 second segment in the middle from Fox News(political) which I didn't really get what the point was of that as I was just relieved and didn't pay attention after I realized it had nothing to do with the current Steelers.

Mods get rid of this thread or leave it, whatever. I thought this had just come out, it came out in 2011...LOL. The video is new..the story not so much.

 

[Stewey]

The story goes across both football and political lines. Probably best suited in the political forum.

Nevertheless an interesting story.

Tomlin too hip hop? Well, they factored in his jabberwocky talk.

Yeah I was watching Steeler videos and that video popped up in suggested videos. Didn't know it had anything political in it as it was from a channel called TYT Sports.

 

[BLITZ]

Ty for sharing. The guy is somewhat annoying. But a good find.

 

[xjx]

TYT? the young turks? That's a communist group.

 

[mightyguru]

Wait till the Dolphins meet Tyreek Hill.

 

[steelhurt]

So ask yourself this question. If he had been hired by the Dolphins in 2007 do you honestly think he would have survived there this long?

A football FO being stupid is hardly political imo

It’s just a story of a dumb NFL franchise doing/saying dumb things

I didn't know what it was. It says sports and I was watching Steeler videos when it showed up. Doesn't change the story, it did happen.

No. And not wanting to piss off the Tomlin fans, but my guess is he would be a D coordinator somewhere right now more than likely.

 

[SojournerSteel]

He'd have been out of head coaching 10+ years ago if he'd gone to the Dolphins. So there is that. If he even cares, he should be glad they did him a big favor.

 

[SteelerSask2]

I think if he had went to the Fish he'd be a position coach right now. So good thing for him he was hip hop.

Wouldn't have inherited a sb contender.

Please do so. And I promise I'll back you.

 

[Steelersfan84]

No. And not wanting to piss off the Tomlin fans, but my guess is he would be a D coordinator somewhere right now more than likely.

The last time he did that, his defense ranked 31st against the pass.

 

[Steelersfan84]

Will some higher power please give me a headcoach, please?

 

[BLITZ]

The Steeler have a head coach. which is your team?

 

[Steelersfan84]

The Steeler have a head coach. which is your team?

The Steelers have a regular season gold medalist. We don't have a headcoach.

 

[BLITZ]

The Steelers have a regular season gold medalist. We don't have a headcoach.

ok. your team does not have a head coach. got it. must be why you spend so much time on a Steelers message board

 

[bermudasteel]

The Steelers have a regular season gold medalist. We don't have a headcoach.

STFU. This rhetoric is beyond annoying.

So he's a players coach. He celebrates wins. He keeps cancerous players in check, while in Pittsburgh.

Blah, blah, ******* blah mediocre ****...

He's going nowhere until he's ready to go.

Period the end.

Have a nice ******* day...

those dudes must have a really low bar for "hip hop". this is too funny. poor tomlin, if his own players aren't parodying him as a terrorist, he's getting thrown in with "hip hop" culture by management.

 

[BLITZ]

Miami sucks then, they suck now and they sucked in between. Tomlin is lucky he seemed to hip hop as he landed the most preferred HC job in professional sports history.
