Giants' Tom Coughlin on Siri: 'I don't trust the lady'

New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin showed his age Wednesday while discussing his relationship with iPhone's Siri. 

"Two weeks ago I'm trying to get to a roller hockey game that my grandson is playing in, so Marc Ross (the Giants' director of college scouting) had showed me how to talk to this phone," the 68-year-old Coughlin said during the NFC coaches' breakfast, according to Tom Rock of Newsday. 

I don't trust the lady in GPS. I don't trust her because they don't send you the right way. I hit the button and I go 'Park Ridge, New Jersey.' And she comes back on, she's giving me directions. So now I figure out where I am. I hit the thing and I said, 'Thank you very much, I know exactly where I am now.' And she comes back and says, 'You don't have to thank me.' I swear to God that's what she said. And then I couldn't get her to shut up. Every turn. 'Take a right here.' I know where I am. I know where I am. I'm a block away from my house and she's telling me where to go. I said 'I know where I'm going.'

Coughlin isn't completely technologically-challenged (he knows how to text), but admits he needs help from his grandchildren when it comes to surfing the web or using apps. 

"If I don't know how to do something, my 11-year-old grandson and 11-year-old granddaughter, they can do it," he said.

Coughlin has a theory as to why kids are so good at navigating technology.

"When I was raised it was, 'Don't touch that,' 'Don't break that,' 'Don't you dare,'" he said. "These guys, they have no fear of these things. They just go and they do it. They're probably reinforced by people saying, 'You can't hurt it.' I could hurt it. I defy all odds."
