Biz is tweeting that it is 100% true. For sure the players wanted this to get out.

That’s some psycho stuff man. That’s not even old boys culture. Old boys culture doesn’t know what air drop is. That’s just plain old scum bag person.

You'd think this would put Jarmo on thin ice as well. Just a colossally stupid hire.

It's actually more alarming that the first thing Biz thought of when somebody asked to see the photos on your phone is a bunch of dick pics...what the hell photos does Biz have on his phone.

It’s satire to point out how stupid the request is.
It’s not any more reasonable or understandable to demand to know if an employee was partying in the off-season…. And to then, I assume, base how you treat that employee on the result?

The funny thing is that Booner Jenner (or anyone else) doesn't need to look at Mike Babcock's phone to understand what kind of person he is.

He talked about how he has kids and they helped him understand how to be better and how to better relate to todays athletes. How going to the college set up helped him.
Seems like nothing changed.

Personally I'd toss him my phone and tell him to enjoy my 30k pics of my homescreen.

Well he didn't lie. His kids did help him understand how to be better... it's not like he figured out AirDrop by himself.

I don't think it even needs to be thought of as satire.
In the general population more people have lewd photos on their phone, than those who do not. Given a team's worth of people, it would be statistically shocking if there were no "dick pics" shown.
Your boss going through your private photos on your private phone is equivalent to you boss going through video from a camera in your private bedroom. In both cases there is a chance that everything is PG, but there is a reasonable expectation that there will be something private.

I would just say I don't own a cell phone, sorry dude. You aren't legally required to own one. A old-school, crotchety, conservative, crusty curmudgeon like Babock would probably respect that response anyways.

Maybe but it would be a major disruption for the organization with training camp on the horizon so I don't anticipate them making a rash decision.
