What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN. 802 Boomer and Geo program on the fan and CBS Sports Network. The Built Forward Tough Studio, 888-808-1019 is the number. A lot on the football in that hour. I want to wrap it up because Casey's been holding for a little while. Then I got something I think interesting on the Yankees. Here's Casey in Annapolis. What's up, Casey?
Hey, guys. Hey, thank you for the years of entertainment. Really appreciate you guys. Hey, before I get to Aaron Glenn, first of all, a couple of quick things. Landman, what a great show. Thank you for the recommendation.
Sure is.
Oh, my goodness. The mom and the daughter. They're out of their minds. They're out of their minds.
Billy Bob Thornton playing off of them. He's ridiculous. He's awesome in that. Yes.
It's brilliant. And I hadn't seen it in Boomer until you mentioned it. And secondly, golf. Keep talking about it.
Is Aaron Glenn too fragile to be an NFL head coach?
I played. I was a baseball player, right? I played golf once a year for 20 years. I'm in my mid-50s. I finally joined. I got in after five years. It's the U.S. Naval Academy course. If you ever get a chance to play it, it's an amazing course in the Mid-Atlantic. But in two years, I got from a 33 to an 11, and I'm playing Pine Valley next month. Wow, look at you, man. You're becoming like Geo.
You're becoming bougie.
Oh, my goodness.
You're bougie like Geo, yeah.
But I got invited to this, so I'm pretty excited. But the big point I'm calling about is Aaron Glenn, and I'm going over the Bay Bridge right now in Maryland. Beautiful day. He has a trait which makes me run away from executives. And I've built companies and I've installed CEOs into turnaround situations. And there's one trait that you guys don't have. And imagine Gio, the top of the world in media and YouTube. I mean, Boomer, you've done it in sports and media. And that trait is fragility or he's fragile. And I saw it with not wanting to talk to Aaron Rodgers. I saw it with him... taking innocuous questions from the media and fighting them. But that fragility. You ever see cars, too? Do you guys have kids and see cars, too?
I do, and I do, yes. What Lightning says to Francesco Bernoulli, and he goes, you're fragile, fragile. Francesco Bernoulli, fragile. Like, it's... You can't... Can you imagine... Being the quarterback for the Cincinnati Bengals or the Jets or being in the media, there's so many people trying to take you down. Always.
I will tell you, by the way, yes, I can imagine all of those things. And one of the things I've lived all of those things. All of them in three different cities.
Yes.
That is the one thing that I was talking about, and he's discussing Aaron not as a coach, but the way he presents himself with the media. And that, to me, the one takeaway from last year, if I was going to knock him for, would be the way he dealt with the media right out of the gate. Well, all right, so this goes back to the Parcell influence. And remember who, you know, the 33rd team, this is Mike Tannenbaum and Rick Spielman, who is an advisor, by the way, still. Mm-hmm. They were the ones who recommended Aaron Glenn and Woody Johnson said, sure, fine. And Aaron, I think, came in and wanted to be aggressive, wanted to be positive, wanted to be very confident. At least that's the way he came off.
If you remember in the beginning of all this, he wanted to set the tone, set the narrative. But if you win, then obviously people will follow along. If you lose, people are going to start questioning you. And I think that's really what happened to Aaron. He came in very confidently, thinking he could handle all of this, and then all of a sudden they started losing.
What is the Jets' salary strategy for the quarterback position?
And he made some major mistakes in games, timing, situations, and situational football that is so paramount to the success of all football teams, he wasn't ready for it. The problem for me, going back to the first day, and whoever was advising him, I don't know, I get the whole Parcells thing and all that, was you knew questions were coming about Aaron Rodgers. There was a much better way to handle it than the way he handled it, and he was very argumentative with the media on day one.
