One day I wish whatever team he's infecting would just gang up on him and pull the Private Pile soapcake/pillow case hazing manuever on him from Full Metal Jacket.

He really needs a good fist upside his big trap. Shame McDamagedGoods couldn't muster the guts to do it.

Didn't they already go the Oklahoma route with Switzer?


Wouldn't fly.

I think there is more than enough, OVERWHELMING evidence that college coaches in the NFL (or in any other sport, for that matter!)simply don't work!!!!! Ask Pete Carroll, Dennis Erickson, and Nick Saban...Ane those are just the recent ones I can remember off the top of my head!!!!!!

You forgot Steve Spurrier, the worst of them all. For every 10 of them hired, there may be one Jimmy Johnson. Those odds aren't good.

Superior would've gotten it done in Washington if he had felt like giving it more time.


I was disappointed he didn't stay the course into year 3, but that's why he's The Ballcoach.


He just rolled.

No way. He was famous for putting in short days while his assistants were expected to work late into the night.

LOL. What the hell did you want? 8-hour days or something?

He's Spurrier, they weren't.


Plus, it's like, chilly in the DC area after September.

Spurriuer's biggest problem here in DC was the fact that he had the least exp. coaching staff in the NFL. Nobody knew WTF they were doing. They were all learning as they went alnog. The ol' Ball Coach did not surround him self with the best people that he could, they were all buddies and friends.

Dunno about that. Everyone is waiting for him to reach his potential. Been 7 years...

Vick is a "great" quarterback???? Which NFL games are you watching??? The guy is a FRAUD!!!!!! Being able to rush for 1000 yards in a season as a QB is about the only thing the guy has ever accomplished! Let us not forget that those dopes in Atlanta traded away Tomlinson for Vick during that draft!!!! What a bonehead move that was!!!!!

cowboys hire Wade Phillips!!
http://www.panews.com/breakingnews/loca ... 50603.html

Jerry Jones finally got it right with Wade Phillips Hire


BOB WEST
The Port Arthur News

PORT ARTHUR —
It’s a little scary — no make that downright frightening — when Jerry Jones and I come to the same conclusion on a football coach. But I must give Jethro a standing ovation for having the good sense to go against the grain of conventional wisdom and hire Wade Phillips as Bill Parcells’ successor.

Wade is easily the best coach of the 10 Jones interviewed, and will be the Cowboys best coach since Jimmy Johnson. If it is possible to get Dallas back to the Super Bowl in what is less than an ideal situation, as far as the owner being too hands on, this son of a Bum will get it done.

Up front, I must admit that I am about as unbiased on Wade as I was on Jimmy. I’ve known him since Neil Morgan gave him his first head coaching job at Orange Stark High School, his wife, the former Laurie Nunez of Port Neches, was a bridesmaid when my wife and I got married and there’s nobody I respect more than his dad — Bum Phillips.

That said, I have absolutely no reservations in crawling out on a limb in print and saying the guy who quarterbacked Port Neches-Groves to a 7-2-1 record in 1964 was a great hire. I said the same thing when Jones hired Johnson to replace Tom Landry, didn’t waver after the Cowboys went 1-15 his first year and wound up looking like a genius.

Actually, there is that one reservation about Jones, but Wade has the ideal personality to deal with him. Like Bum, who skillfully dealt with a jerk of an owner in Houston named Bud Adams until a devil named Ladd Herzeg got his ear, Wade’s people skills and lack of overblown ego can make it work with Jethro.

What impresses me about Jones’ bold move is that Wade was not the popular hire. Or, as some of the clueless idiots on ESPN keep saying, “a sexy hire.” From Dallas Hall of Famers Troy Aikman and Michael Irvin to Jimmy Johnson, to the Metroplex media, Jones was besieged with people around him lobbying for Norv Turner.

It certainly looked like the decision had already been made last week in Miami, when Jones and Turner kept being spotted together. The way everybody had it figured, Jones was going to interview Chicago defensive coordinator Ron Rivera — the guy Norv wanted as his DC — after the Super Bowl, then make the announcement.

Jones, however, went against the grain, and he’s going to get skewered in a lot of circles for it. What most of the critics don’t understand, though, is that Jerry has long admired Wade, sought his opinion often over the years and was obviously sold after an eight-hour interview a couple of weeks ago.

Perhaps the only one not surprised at the decision was Bum Phillips. Every time I checked with Bum the last couple of weeks, he kept saying he had a good feeling Wade was going to get the job. I kept saying reminding him that all the evidence pointed to Norv Turner. But Bum didn’t waver.

Contacted Thursday morning, as he was enroute to the press conference at Valley Ranch, the 80-year-old father of the new Cowboy coach was ecstatic.

“I didn’t know anything in advance and Wade didn’t either,” he said. “But I just felt that Jerry Jones knows enough about football that he couldn’t spend eight hours with Wade and not realize this was an exceptional coach and the man he needed.

“I am so happy,” he continued. “This is great for Wade and it’s going to be great for the Cowboys. Wade’s a great coach. He’s a better coach than I ever was. Him not being able to hire all his own assistants is not the perfect situation, but he can make it work.”

That part of the terms of accepting the job was taking Jones’ choice, Jason Garrett, as offensive coordinator is going to cause considerable grief for Wade. The first person I spoke with in Dallas on Thursday, a guy whose football knowledge I hold in high regard, said he will be labeled as Jones’ puppet for going along with Garrett and other assistants Jones wants to retain.

If that’s the case , so be it. Wade’s no fool and he didn’t go into this with his eyes closed. He’s 60--years old, he’s totally confident in his abilities and he wanted one more shot at being an NFL head coach. Seeing as how he’d more or less been blackballed by Buffalo owner Ralph Wilson, there might not be another opportunity.

Really, what does he have to lose? Being head coach of the Dallas Cowboys is one of the glamor jobs in all of professional sports? As opposed to his last six coaching stops, where he walked into losing situations, the Cowboys are a playoff team that could be a Super Bowl team — especially in the NFC — with a few tweaks.

They need to kill off T.O. Hes taking that team through the gutter. I can see why the coach left. If you cant the jerk off the team, bail!!!!!!!! I am a die hard cowboys fan, and it sickens me that they even let TO on that team. He's all talk. If he would just shut his trap and work, he'd be better off....then again, he sucked this season. I almost give up, but I still have faith that they will do the right thing and get rid of T.O.

i think the general football population agrees with u,, these superstars bring lots of baggage and leave behind the talent,, remember deion sanders?? he got burned more times than Richard Pryor in the '80s..prime time my foot..

You can't be serious?
T.O. actually behaved pretty well this past season
from all I've read and heard.
And you'd get rid of these kinda stats???

85 Receptions (13-15 more had he not dropped ANY catchable attempts)
13 Touchdowns
1180 yards receiving
62 first downs

... That's a pretty specacular year right there.
Imagine him next year now that Romo has got
some 'hair on his chest'. I think Dallas would be crazy to get
rid of him right now.

[larryfromnextdoor]

carlitto, i think we are just coming from the thought that T.O. can be a trouble maker, all of the focus seems to be on him,, ..i mean he is all we here about in texas,,the whole place blew up when he "accedentally" overdosed last year, hes tiresome..

I hear ya...
But it sounds like your issue in Texas
is not so much Owens and his antics but
rather all the Texas and national Sports reporters
that can't go a day WITHOUT bringing Owens up.
I bet those fuckers have on-the-minute reports if
Owens farts in public
It's no wonder Parcells got so fired up in
most of his press conferences...
For every football question he got 5 more T.O.
questions and it got ridiculous.
