Mike Tannenbaum, Basking Ridge resident, tells Morris business audience that Jets football and business operations both use people-first approach.
When building a successful professional football operation, it is just as important to select the right coach and quarterback as it is to give an ear to what the drivers, trainers, ball boys and secretaries have to say. Indeed, it might be more important to listen to the non-athletes of the organization, Mike Tannenbaum, general manager of the New York Jets told a Morris County Chamber of Commerce audience in Florham Park Friday. All Jets personnel who come in contact with the players are required to turn in at least two sentences about that interaction, said Tannenbaum, a Basking Ridge resident. When a player, especially a draftee or a professional the Jets are interested in signing, is driven somewhere by the team, the driver is …

Question: Did the Jets hire Anthony Weiner to interview Brett Favre? Observation: I've can't recall seeing too much Chardonnay being consumer prior to Giants games at the tailgates I've attended, AND, I can't recall not seeing a fight in the parking lot at the Jets games I've attended. Not that there ar not fights at Giants games, I'm sure, but I've never not seen one at a Jets game. If 1997 was … more ›
