 grievances. I love grievances. Festivus. Let's start with this one. Jaguar's owner Shotcon fired Tom Coughlin on Wednesday two days after the NFL Players Association warned players of potentially signing with the franchise because of excessive fines and player grievances. Wow. Conn said he initially decided to make the move once the season ended but the letter sent by the NFLPA to its players clearly accelerated his timetable. The NFLPA said on Monday that more than 25% of player grievances filed in the last two years have been filed against the Jaguars. The unions take, they said this, US players may want to consider this when you have a chance to select your next club. They're basically telling their people don't sign in Jacksonville as long as that man is in charge. Yeah well that's not gonna work. That's fire. And he has now been fired. Yeah you have to do that. But doesn't know there's a bit of this now obviously you know Coughlin did overreach but there's also a bit of this where it's just a sign of the times where players are taking over. There's no longer like teams are no longer clearly in charge anymore and you're seeing more and more of the players now it's not just star players that have power. It almost feels like now all players like the power is the pendulum is swinging towards the players more than ever before. Well I would say this I would say this and and I like Tom Coughlin but I don't even think this is about like players power. Tom Coughlin was essentially just not following rules. Like there are league mandated rules in the collective bargaining agreement about what does and doesn't qualify as a mandatory event and it sounds like there were players for the Jaguars getting fined for not showing up to things that were not mandatory. Maybe that's against the league rule. Yeah he maybe he wasn't even aware of it like that's a concern just impossible. You would think that's impossible to believe right. But what does it say. I mean I guess because we know you know we know him. Is he a bad guy like Tom Coughlin's not a bad guy evil guy right. He's not a bad guy. So there's something behind this where he probably felt like this locker rooms out of control and I've got to get control of it. And the only way to get to a player sometimes is through their wallet. There has to be something said about what was going on with that organization that he felt that he had to go to that extreme. Well we've all met the guy we don't we know about him. He's not like this evil guy that's just looking to make everybody miserable. Of course not. So there's something deeper to this which he probably felt like. But there's nothing else I can do. But what I would say to that is OK. He needed to do something to get that locker room under control. But he's the one who put that locker room together. He puts the roster together like he compiled this group of players. I know either way. It doesn't look great for him. The news of Coughlin's firing was not being mourned by some former players. Here's Emmanuel Acho on Get Up Today. This news brought so much joy to me because it vindicates so many people. Jaylin Ramsey you were right. Leonard Fornette you were right. Dante Fowler you were right. I'll say this and I think this applies in a household and applies on a football field rules without relationship equals rebellion. Rules without relationship equals rebel like that. Tom Coughlin showed up with a whole bunch of rules. But he had no relationships. And guess what player after player after player after player started to rebel. Simple as that. That's a great point that he made. I like that line. The rules without relationships that equal rebellion which again Giants but well said. Yeah but him saying that Leonard Fornette like we're going aside with Jaylin Ramsey and Leonard Fornette when it comes to character. I mean come on. But maybe it's a little but if they're being fine for things that are collectively bargain that the players don't need to be at like Tom Coughlin kind of he he had he has shown an ability to change with the times but it feels like he was unable to on that. You're not wrong but there is got to be a part of you that looks and thinks. So guys weren't showing up the things and he and maybe they didn't have to show up right. But Coughlin's like you know what we show some ownership on the in this team you guys a star show some ownership be part of the solution here. You're not coming to see. That's not a fine though. I know it's not I'm not saying what he did was right. But you get to that point we almost exasperated like seriously like you're never showing up if you don't have to. But do you care at all. But maybe to the point of the clip we just heard the relationship was there to get that if you build the relationship they want to be a part of it. If you treat them from the beginning like children they were they had success immediately and they got fat off the success clearly and then he didn't know how to what else to do other than punish. That's all he knows. That's the only thing he knew what to do was punish. Was there was their near Super Bowl run his first year there. Yes. Interesting because that would be the same thing as Odell then he's immediate success. He's not able to hone in these young guys having a media they got fat off the success became stars and part fell apart instantly. I believe he's 73. Do you think there's another case. Yeah. In some form. He'll never coach. You won't give him the keys to your franchise like Jacksonville did. So a consultant is probably the best I can see him at this point which is which is still not a bad thing. It's good to have a guy like that around but he he likes to be in charge. That's pretty clear. It's kind of a so can he do it. If this is kind of like his last real moment in the in the spotlight of kind of kind of a sad ending to to like we said who a guy who's a good man and who has had a tremendous career. No it's a really good point if this is the end for the for the success he had here and you have the kind of guy and moral fiber that he appears to have it's a sad ending. Yeah it's not ideal speaking.
