FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- New York Jets offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur used to be called "Mikey," the little squirt forced to relinquish the TV remote and prime couch space when his big brother and brother's best friend came barging into the house seeking entertainment, nourishment and an occasional dip in the pool.
This was 2004, when Mike LaFleur, 17, was dreaming of a life in football. His father and maternal grandfather were coaches, and the two living-room crashers wound up in the profession, too. As a matter of fact, they have done quite well for themselves -- Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur and Jets coach Robert Saleh.
