From the NY Daily News, here’s Tom Coughlin’s comments after practice today about Kenny Phillips, who is rumored to require season-ending knee surgery:
Giants Coach Coughlin Is at Liberty to Say Absolutely Nothing About Phillips
“Kenny Phillips, there are a lot of circumstances involved here and I am not at liberty to say anything at this point.”
(Are those medical circumstances?) “Yeah, well, all circumstances. There are other things involved. There are other circumstances surrounding not just Kenny but what’s going on around. and I’m not at liberty to talk about that until those other issues get settled. That is the best I can do for you today. I am not trying to duck your questions. I am just telling you that there are other issues.”
Yes, so many circumstances and ... things involved and ... issues. Tons of issues. Like, will he need surgery, for example. That would be one issue. Or, will he not need surgery? That would be another issue. And … well … those are actually the only two possible issues.
But, no, Coughlin’s not trying to duck the answers. He’s just doing it on accident.
