My gripe with Haley is you can be a tough coach and all that but players have to want to play for you, you can't make guys hate you.
I agree with that sentiment, but I believe a coach should have more authority than any player. Boldin showed his ass the other day and I don't fault Haley in the least.

The problem is these athletes are millionaires and some are prima donnas, who don't take direction very well. I think Tom Coughlin is a perfect example of being a hard-nosed coach, who doesn't take any shit and I think that discipline pay divendends for the team. If a player can't take direction, they are worth keeping around in the first place.
