The Official NFL Thread, Part Duex... No TO or Brady Bashing Allowed

[speedracer]

NFL teams are very environmentally conscious -- they recycle coaches whenever possible.

 

[Hewson]

herm to kansas city for a third and a fifth, and KC will sign him to a 5 year 20 million dollar deal.

be the word on the street

Is America great or what?
The only other profession where someone could get a handsome salary for such an incredible rate of failure as Herm Edwards' is meteorology.

i guess i drunkenly put a bid in on e-bay for giants-panthers playoff tickets last night... and i won.

300 bucks is a bit much for a pair of upper deck ticket, but eh... oh well... i shouldn't be allowed to use the internet after drinking.

 

[Hewson]

Enjoy the game, dress warm, don't imbibe too much.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

i can't drink that much... i need to go to court the next day

 

[Hewson]

Sounds like a busy few days.
Tell the judge "no excuse your honor", they like that.

And if that doesn't work, "bitch set me up" is another useful card to play.

already did... this is a follow up.

headache does silly things when he drinks

A third and fifth for the Jets. What a steal for them.

"Sure, you can have him..."

alexander wins the mvp

alexander 19 votes, peyton 13 votes, brady 10 votes, tiki 6 votes, palmer 2 votes

 

[Tom Brady]

alexander wins the mvp

alexander 19 votes, peyton 13 votes, brady 10 votes, tiki 6 votes, palmer 2 votes

Peyton may have gotten three more votes, but I have three more rings.

 

[phanan]

Shows what I know.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

apparently the herm talks have stalled because the cheifs aren't sure about what draft picks they want to give up.

from what they've been saying on the radio, when this happens they usually just put it in the hands of the commish and let him decide... so it's still expected to get done

 

[randhail]

I think it's pretty amusing that in the NFL, teams trade draft picks for coaches. I wonder what Grady Little would've fetched in return.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

they actually do it in all sports if a guy's still under contract.

when the mets wanted to sign lou pinella a few years back the mariners asked for jose reyes in return.

the mets told them to go F themselves and highered art "i'm just happy to be here" howe instead.


the knicks got draft picks from the heat for pat riley... i don't remember who they drafted with them but knowing the knicks they probably ended up trading them away for an aging undersized power forward.

 

[Hewson]

If I'm the J-E-T-S and KC actually wants Herm, I say send a couple of racks of baby backs with some beans and slaw and you've got yourself a coach.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

maybe they can get the royals

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

apparently the jets are gonna look at jim hasslet to replace herm, because i guess rich kotite is busy.

 

[Hewson]

Someone willing to give the Jets draft picks for Herm Edwards...thats the "miracle in the Meadowlands part 2".

 

[stammer476]

herm to kansas city for a third and a fifth, and KC will sign him to a 5 year 20 million dollar deal.

In the words of Montgomery Burns, "Eeeeexcellent."

Now if we can just the Raiders to hire Mike Martz, the AFC West will be complete.

Go Bronocos.

 

[speedracer]

apparently the jets are gonna look at jim hasslet to replace herm, because i guess rich kotite is busy.

With the Jets' current QB situation, the choice is clear: Wayne Fontes.

herm to kansas city for a third and a fifth, and KC will sign him to a 5 year 20 million dollar deal.


Well I guess we don't have to worry about KC being in contention next year

 

[Chizip]

Whilest I am admittedly Martz' biggest detractor here, the Rams should be ashamed of firing him this season.
They should have fired him any time over the last several seasons and it would have been fine, but when he misses almost the entire season with heart ailments, then they can him...bad form.

the problem with that is he's made the playoffs 4 out of the past 5 years. how can you fire a guy after making the playoffs?

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

I wanted to fire Dick Jauron after he was named coach of the year. They should have listened to me then.

 

[Chizip]

yeah that year was a fluke and everyone knew it

 

[WildHoneyAlways]

you'd be surprised how many people were drinking the kool-aid. F'ing John Schoop.
I believe they all had horsehoes shoved up their asses that season.

 

[popacrobat]

they have the retarded week off between conference championship and superbowl again this year. i hate that.

 

[phanan]

Yeah, but since the Patriots have to play an extra game this year, that's actually a good thing.

 

[phanan]

The Vikings are gonna announce Brad Childress as their new head coach tomorrow.

For once, the Vikings have done something...intelligent. Childress should get things fixed up there.

 

[Hewson]

the problem with that is he's made the playoffs 4 out of the past 5 years. how can you fire a guy after making the playoffs?

If I were the owner I would have fired him before the OT coin toss in the divisional game against Carolina 2 years ago for the way he handled the end of regulation. (Just like I would have fired Norv Turner after his 4 failed running plays on first and goal from the 1 against the Giants last Saturday night while Randy Moss was kept on the sidelines, I was surprised he lasted until Tuesday).

Sometimes making the playoffs is still falling way short of expectations (ask Grady Little)
