"Sometimes you're late to work. It's life. It's not life threatening ... Sometimes your alarm clock isn't going to go off."- Todd Bowles

[Matt39]

This was uttered by the NY Jets Head Coach today. This quote makes Kotite look like Lombardi. For ****s sake.

[jbt]

i'm sure that would fly with my boss

[Beerfish]

What was this in relation to mo wilk and shel rich?

[Jack Straw]

Todd Bowles simply does not get it. 

[UnitedWhofans]

He's right. It's not a good look but he's right.

[Jet Life]

It's probably best he doesn't speak anymore 

[UnitedWhofans]

BTW, why is it scary? He could be gone next year. Who cares?

[JustInFudge]

[SwanseaJack]

Wow. 

What a winning attitude!

[jack48]

this is laughable.

[JustInFudge]

Sometimes you get blown out by 30 points.  That's life. It's not life threatening.  Sometimes the other team is just 30 points better than you.

Yeah, unless you're a surgeon.

Sometimes when I fart, poop comes out.  That's life.  It's not life threatening. Sometimes poop comes out when you least expect it.

Pre-scheduled surgeries are rarely life-threatening situations.

Unfortunately that's true

Sometimes, even the dunce gets a job.  He's not good at it.  But there are other, more dunce-like, people in positions of power above you that keep you on anyway.

So the surgeon would already be on site. 

[munchmemory]

After his comment, Bowles will henceforth be known as "the logician".  Godspeed, Coach Bowles.

I'm calling bullsh*t.

Parcells "let" LT smoke crack for the entire 1985 season.

http://www.cbsnews.com/news/lt-over-the-edge-642605/ 

He rarely practiced and one time he showed up to a walk through still wearing the handcuffs from the holding cell the night before 

And if memory serves he never benched him once. 

This idea that Bowles is a soft coach, who let players do whatever it's absolute bullsh*t. 

HE LEARNED FROM PARCELLS!

This is how the league works, stars do what they want and coaches make 10x less than the stars.  

In fact, the benching of Mo and Sheldon for 1 quarter is more discipline than Parcells showed LT in 10 years

Don't be mean. Racism accusations could come out.

How was I being racist?  I'm just calling the guy dumb.

No. Because you're not even going to have a life-saving surgery unless there is a surgeon on-site who is telling you he can save your life right then and there with surgery. 

 

Your premise makes no sense.

You weren't, but there will be some accusations of racism. In this PC society, there will be.

And even then, what about his family?

I've come to adopt the phrase, "the only such thing as minor surgery, is if it's happening to somebody else," then I typically point to the patient's spouse, always gets a good chuckle. Not the point of the thread, but I like to spread the joy on here once in a while.

LT was 100 times the player of these two schmucks and the team actually win the super bowl.

MAybe so but it still seems hypocritical. All men are created equal

Oh great, so his kids will be taunted at schools and grow up with emotional problems. Good idea.

So many LT type of players on this team...

100 times? Meh... 5-10 times max. 

Plus, the Giants didn't win after the 1985 season. They won after the 1986 season. Maybe if dumbass Parcells hadn't allowed LT to smoke crack in '85 they would have won.

Yeah for sure, so Todd Bowles has just given every single player and coach on this team to sleep in a few times a year.

Mo and Sheldon are hardly good players let alone stars,
