    There you go Tomlin answer the question about being a player coach

    He said he's normally asked that with it being in conjunction of how he wear his hair and clothes and that's why he feel that way.

    I didn't see the interview. Did she ask him about his hair or clothes?

    Well that just clears it up tremendously. Tomlin should be frothing at the mouth livid over such racist questions. The media people should all lose their jobs over such racially-motivated lines of questioning.

    He would have been much better off issuing his typical canned coach-speak in response. "Obviously, I acknowledge and embrace the label of "player's coach", in terms of how the men respond to my motivation for defending each and every blade of grass, in each and every stadium environment. And if I get asked this question one more time, I'm going to unleash hell."

    It was actually very funny. And it would have been a wiser move. He should hire Eich as his speech writer.
    Trolls are people too.

    I heard the PC, I didn't hear the interview. So I wonder if she asked him if he was a players' coach and also asked about the way he wore his hair and clothes.

    A player-coach is one who both coaches and plays on a team. What exactly is a "player's coach"? Players, coaches and commentators seem to differ on this. It seems to be in the eye of the beholder. I spent about 120 seconds and couldn't find a dictionary definition of the term.

    players coach is used when teams are viewed as rowdy off the field and playing on the edge on the field with no clear sense of discipline. thats always been my read on it

    phil fulmer was labelled a players coach for years in knoxville

    he got made fun of for wearing jogging suits all the time if that counts
