I commented in another thread yesterday about him suggesting Phil Collin's "In the Air Tonight" to Parker before SB45 and someone else called him Captain Cool Shades. That's too much of a coincidence since in todays presser he mentioned both those things..........what say you?

Maybe one of the players kissing his *** by reporting that the natives are restless, you know since he is a players coach. I doubt he himself has time.

"Sometimes when they couple 'players' coach' with questions about how I wear my hair or what I choose to wear on the sidelines or what type of music I listen to, then it gets kind of old and falls into that category for me. I'd like to think the manner in which I do my job, whether it's positive or negative, has very little to do with my haircut or the clothes that I wear or the type of music I listen to, and that's when I get annoyed with that line of questioning."

Skip ahead to 22:15 to hear it.

Look for Mike to switch to a mohawk and rock some Rammstein from here on out.....never mind I forgot he won't be put in a box. Carry on MIke.
 
22 Posts, and an adviser to Tomlin are thee.

BTW, I can criticize you like that. I am the guy, who had the girlfriend who went to Notre Dame, who was in a sorority, who's "sister" gave "head" to Jerome Bettis back in the day after a home game vs. Michigan.

I KNEW it.
 
I hear Obama reads P&R , as well. If he doesn't, he should.
 
WOWzzzzzza, this thread is a r-e-a-c-h !!!! Now we have a certified message board dude who has direct ties to a snitch who knows Coach Tomlin and Coach takes second hand advice from. I'm so proud, that I belong to that very same message board.

It's all alcohol, drugs and loose morals. They'll wake up tomorrow with a headache and no memory of what they did.

Sir, because one or two here fall into that category, doesn't dictate that we all do. Please refrain from grouping us all in the same category. Some of us here are just plain ******* nuts / irresponsible / stupid / brainless / or just don't give a ****, till it comes to categories. So in the name of Anti racism, please don't use categories.

Actually we know that some of the players and for sure some of the radio and newspaper guys read this board. Last year a discussion on 93.7 was verbatim of what was said here.
 
Why would any player/coach want to read this board? There's nothing here worth reading. And even calling this a fan's site would even be a stretch. I'm sure if they're reading anything it's from the Steelers main site on thier board. The only player that plays on the team here is Mike Tomlin. This should just be Tomlination.com

You're new here and haven't realized our brilliance yet.
Welcome to SN.com.
 
I still hoping LeBeau picks up on DaBus' 4-4-4 defense.

We need all the help we can get. Since the refs don't see a lot of penalties and see others that don't exist, it would be worth a shot.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Vader again.

By the way, who's talking about any of this anyway? Other than Coach's excellent choice in eyewear fashion none of that gets mentioned here. And if it isn't mentioned here then it doesn't matter.

I listen to his press conferences and have never heard this before. Has anyone heard someone talk to Tomlin about his hair cut than ask him about being a players coach? I have no idea what he is talking about.

A couple of days prior to the Tampa Bay game, Tomlin was interviewed on NFL Network. Can't remember who was doing the interview, but the guy basically insinuated that Tomlin was a player's coach because he was close in age, race and music taste to a majority of the NFL players and because he had a cool haircut and wore shades.

Edit: The interview is up on the team site and the interviewer is Arrington. You can find the part where the "player's coach" discussion goes on at around the 4:30 mark. Didn't/doesn't seem like such a big deal, but it obviously struck some kinda nerve with Tomlin.

If you want to compliment Tomlin, you have to call him a player's coach. What else would you call him?

X and O coach - we know that's a joke
Player Evaluator - his drafts have mostly been terrible and the free agent pickups not much better.
Game Manager - he makes terrible game decisions, from challenges to clock management
Disciplinarian - how many penalties?

exactly, and Tomlin knows that. That's why he's grumpy about the label, because eventually, it will help to paint a clearer picture of just how inept he is at his position.

Someone get the Vikings on the phone and see if we can't fleece them for some picks for their old D-coordinator. Oh, they have Zimmer in charge now? Nevermind.

Like I said, if they were 4-0 he wouldn't give a crap what anybody said.
