Len Pastabelly on Gibbs' Retirement: "Just An Ordinary Joe"

He definitely has some type of hatred towards the Redskins...pretty tasteless article. If I didn't know better, I'd swear he was a big Dallas fan....so maybe the Eagles thing is true.

I know you guys don't like it, but has Joe Gibbs been anything more than ordinary in his second stint? Defend your answer. Don't just call him a prick, but why should the public view a coach with a losing record in his second stint be deemed some sort of deity around the NFL. No one is taking away from what Gibbs did in the 80s and 90s, but prove to me using facts WHY Joe Gibbs should be seen as anything but an ordinary NFL coach in his second stint. You may not like the article, but that doesn't make it false, or means he 'hates' the Redskins. Every team thinks the media hates them.

Nobody has to answer any essay questions for you, Professor. You're not John Houseman and this is not The Paper Chase.

Thanks for proving my point, if you had any ammunition you would have gladly unloaded on me. LP in his piece praises Gibbs for all the reasons he should have, his leadership abilities. LP is doing what a journalist should do, not looking at what he's done long ago in the past to judge what he's done now.

Leave it Daseal to agree with the article....:rolleyes:

Yes Redskins_P, please dispute what hes saying. That's all I'm asking someone to do. I'm sick of seeing people here whine about how the media hates us and doesn't give us any credit, etc etc. Credit is earned, not given. Then when we play down the stretch and earn that credit people are mad that people start picking us.

Since Coach Gibbs' return, the "just an ordinary Joe" comment from Pastabelly's 2004 article has always stuck in the back of my mind. I wanted so much for Joe to walk away from here with no less than an NFC title, so that fat bastard Pastabelly would have to eat his words. I see he didn't waste anytime taking the opportunity to rub it in our faces.Typical of him to pat himself on the back by kicking Gibbs as he heads out the door. Joe Gibbs has more class and dignity than an angry loser like Pastabelly could ever appreciate.

What a jerk.

The only thing that's been proven here is that you have an inflated view of your own significance which has led you start issuing commands to other people. How strange.

Point is he didn't need to basically thumb his nose at us with his choice of words. That's all. He could have been a bit more tactful.
