Joe Philbin, we don’t even know you anymore.

First he’s spewing Super Bowl talk right out of the gates at Training Camp. Then he’s donning a top hat and a white suit while putting on a performance for the ages in front of his entire roster.

Now? We learn Joe was once a prison officer, via Sports Illustrated:

You have to have some discipline, some structure, some rules, but at the same time, you have to be able to relate to these guys and get them to do what you want them to do without having to use a hammer, you know what I mean? Like, one summer I worked in a jail as a correctional officer. There were a bunch of us, maybe six or eight guys in college at the time. One guy was always writing up these prisoners—this guy is a no-good S.O.B. And I never had a problem. It was, “Hey guys, it’s time to get in the cell.” (Pantomimes turning a key). There’s a way and an approach to it so hopefully you can alleviate some of those problems, if I’m making any sense…
 
Interestingly enough if he went back to that profession now he would probably still be working with NFL players.

He worked in a jail. There is a difference trust me. Still pretty cool tho.
 
Yeah the jail probably has a better tight end than most teams have...
 
BTW what happened to the poster who was a prison guard around here...? His name escapes me at the moment but he used to post frequently, haven't seen a post from him in awhile...

Or drinking on a random day off and dropping by Finheaven.
 
Not necessarily. Correctional officers often get a bad reputation for good reason, but if course not all of them are bad. I've heard good and bad stories.

Potheads have a bad reputation for good reason....But of course, not all of them are bad. I've heard good and bad stories.
