I know it's petty, but what was up the Madonna/Britney Spears stlye headset that Miles used. It was hard for me to take him seriously, I was waiting for him to break out into choreographed dancing. Plus its hard to throw that headset in disgust and look cool.
Did you notice how he covered his mouth whenever he was speaking on it? Are the opponents employing lip readers with telescopes?
I noticed that and was thinking if you had real headset you wouldn't have to cover your mouth to talk. Plus it is hard to advertise for your telecommunications provider with that type of headset.
Now if Miles would just add a pair of Chuck Amato's glasses to his starched cap and the Britney headset... he'd have the total package.
I think it had more to do with possible lip reading and not the headset itself. Unless it had a really crappy mike. A lot of NFL coaches use the playsheet to cover up.
Almost every coach I see cover their limps--usually with their play cards--to keep the opposition from lip-reading...
Nick didn't. Wouldn't a directional microphone be a lot easier and more reliable than a lip-reader anyway?
