"But to think that somebody can boo great effort? Are you kidding me? It doesn't make any sense. ... I can promise you this. That guy, he goes to work. He goes to the coffee pot and complains about the coffee and he didn't make it. He goes home and he sees his wife and you know what, she's not dressed very nice. And you know what? He goes to bed early because he doesn't want to talk to her. And frankly she doesn't want to talk to him. And it's just a fact."

Sounds to me like he is confusing football with his home life. Maybe he is preoccupied in the game and worried that he will get to bed too late!!

Honestly, I'm not trying to make fun of him. I really just don't understand what he is trying to say.

"People who booed the team last night are always negative in their daily lives"

Are you really so stupid that you couldn't understand that? Or do you just suck at being funny?

I'm surprised he went there, but I think the message of the quote is quite clear. Miles is saying people who booed last night are miserable who will complain about anything. The coffee analogy was ok, but the wife comment was a little over the top. He's going to alienate the few remaining fans who are behind him if he keeps this up.

Miles code:

The players are giving their best, I am sorry they results don't reflect the effort being shown during each day of practice and during games. How does any decent human being boo effort? I dont' understand it.

People who boo great effort are like people who just like to be grumpy in real life. They are even critical with their wives looks all the time, who wants to be around that kind of person?

It means that sometimes Miles' spirit leaves his body and spies on fans when they are at work and when they come home....and stalking is illegal!!!

Ok sonny here it goes
quote:

But to think that somebody can boo great effort? Are you kidding me?

He is rhetorically asking how much sense does it make for someone to boo a player that is making a great effort.

quote:

That guy, he goes to work. He goes to the coffee pot and complains about the coffee and he didn't make it.

He is pointing out that the typical boo bird is probably like the guy in the office that is always complaining anout everything, even the free coffee. You know the type. Maybe you are one, always complaining and griping aout everything and anything.

quote:

He goes home and he sees his wife and you know what, she's not dressed very nice. And you know what? He goes to bed early because he doesn't want to talk to her. And frankly she doesn't want to talk to him. And it's just a fact."
.
He is pointing out that people that are always negative and criticalat work are usually similarily unhappy at home, and that their unhappiness and hypercritical attitude is contagious.

The entire point is that he believes that most boo-birds are just hyper critical and unhappy people

There I hope I helped you just a bit. It's not hard really. Consider it a little story to help illustrate a point. That better?

I think he's trying to say that Jordan is trying to say that its not his fault. Like when he chewed out the wr for dropping that ball or blaming the coaches for the calling.

And in the wife thin i think he's talking about how after every series he would go and sit at the end of the bench away from everyone. He didn't want to talk to anyone and no one wanted to talk to him.

"Please don't boo me or the players. I know that I suck, but I have a great contract, and you are stuck with me."

my guess

Sounds like they have major problems in that household.
