Joe Gibbs Resigns

Wow. I was not really expecting this, even with the odd air Gibbs took questions the other day.

From the article:
WASHINGTON - Joe Gibbs has resigned as coach and president of the Washington Redskins.
The Redskins said in a statement that Gibbs will remain part of the Redskins family and serve as a special adviser to owner Dan Snyder.

Gibbs will discuss his decision at a 3 p.m. ET news conference at Redskins Park.

The Redskins will begin a search for a new coach immediately. Among the certain candidates are two former head coaches on Gibbs' staff, Gregg Williams and Al Saunders.

I hope they bring in Denny Green, after all "they are who we thought they were."

Oooh I see that Snyder may be after Bill Cowher - but just remember if you have Bill Cowher screaming and spitting in your face the team also needs the equivilant of a smilling baby-face Bettis like player/coach to make everone feel better or the team just won't work.

Nope. Cowher won't come, and Snyder won't chase him. It will be one of the assistants. My money is on Gregg Williams.

Saunders gets the suddenly in vogue "Assistant Head Coach/ Defensive Coordinator" like tag.

They both get raises, and no new coach is hired.

Big Blue Monkey said...

Or Offensive Coordinator, in Saunders' case.

(Cue Wice telling me I misused that apostrophe).

Fuck You Wice. Save the Queen's English for when you are soliciting queens. And so on.

Big BM, I specifically use the Queen's English when I'm addressing you.

By the way, being a muckle-mouthed skank who refuses to follow basic rules of punctuation doesn't make you a rebel. It makes you exactly like every illiterate Raiders fan who misuses "literally," "ironically," "penultimately" and "nucular."

The world won't become a better place by lowering standards so the fatty 'tards can make it over the bar. Fuck their self-esteem: it should be low.

Also, I think G. Williams will get the job and A. Saunders will depart for greener pastures. The Redskins will promote an offensive coordinator from within -- wish it were E. Byner but probably best bet: Bugel/Breaux/Burns

I'm still hoping for Denny Green.

Big Blue Monkey said...

Muumuuman, stop saying that. If you say his name too often, he appears.

Big Blue Monkey said...

Earnest Byner would be cool. Aside from the plays designed to fumble on the 1 foot line.

Oh, SNAP! Take that, E-Byne!
