Goodell to NFL coaches: All access

[G. Host]

The rules will most affect members of the paranoid Parcells/Bill Belichick coaching tree, two of whom happen to guide our local squads.

Tom Coughlin and Eric Mangini no longer will be permitted to bind and gag assistants when reporters are around. (Each had allowed severely limited access to assistants in the past; Coughlin was planning to open things up a bit in 2007 even before the directive.)

The press is licking this up! :D

Sweet! I always hated how Belichick forced his assisants to keep their mouths shut. :up:

Why do we want to hear what the assistant coaches have to say? Do they just spew the same things over and over again like the players.
