Gibbs Dictionary
 
This is hilarious. I heard about it on the radio the other day, and decided it needed to be shared. I'm sorry if someone has already posted a link to this.

Funny stuff. But it's just going to spark another Gibbs debate, which we have plenty of.

Locking this.

After discussing with a fellow moderator I will reluctantly reopen the thread. Under one condition-your responses can only be your own additions/new definitions to the Gibbs Dictionary. The instant it becomes another Love Gibbs vs. Hate Gibbs debate we lock it. We have enough of those threads going on. We want to keep the site clean and free from too much clutter.

i was going to throw up a few quotes, but honestly as bad as we look and appear, we are still 5-4. I know we might not go that far in the playoffs, but at least if we make it there Joe might announce this is the year he is going out, and that may have sort of an impact on the team to finish strong. and when i say "impact" i dont mean the kind of impact Rock's T-shirts had....

i figured the "1,000 + gang" would come after me and not the dude who posted 2 before me, but thats cool.....

“It's been a real struggle for us, ... And the only way you get out of it is to fight our way out of it.”

- were terrible, but maybe me saying this gives us false hope




“We're going to try a couple of other things this week,” - Joe Gibbs

- maybe instead of rolling out right to cooley in the redzone we will try to roll out left this time.... or maybe send portis up the middle from the 11 on 3rd and goal

Looks like you were the first to get away from the spirit of the thread. Not sure what post counts have to do with anything either.

You know for a coach who has won 3 SB for this team and fans (the only SB's we have won) he deserves more respect than this. Disagree with how the team is run is one thing its another when it becomes a personal attack and for this thread to be on a Skins fan site shows no respect for the only coach to win us SB's.

BleedBurgundy 11-15-2007 09:45 AM

Re: Gibbs Dictionary
 
Honestly, I don't think it's too disrespectful myself. Everyone has their own idiosyncracies and his are kinda funny.

There's nothing wrong with getting a chuckle out of the fact that we know at every press conference we're going to hear about how someone was fighting his guts out, is super smart or is a very important part of this football team. It's almost like a Gibbs drinking game. I get what you're saying and there definitely is alot of over the top disrespect being thrown around on this site, but I don't think this is necessary of that type.

However, if people can't stay on topic, it's going to turn into that real quick.

Now that's funny...

You could also substitute LaVar Arrington in there.

Not disrespectful, just funny. Every coach talks in "coach speak."

I guess I have seen all the stuff said this week and now its going after how he say's stuff which seems like its now getting personal. I ahve no problem at laughing at myself or others at stuff they say but its the timing of this thread. If the joking was after a win then I feel it would be much different.

Yeah I doubt we would have this thread if we were 6-3.

But who knows, with the way this season has gone maybe we would.

Win or lose, Gibbs has always talked like this. It is very funny when you take off your burgundy and gold glasses but I don't think it is disrespectful. This team has problems. I don't doubt that Gibbs and staff are trying their best to correct these problems. He has been getting grilled lately and has been put in a position of having to explain his coaching philosophy. It won 3 Superbowls two decades ago, but I don't think it's working now.

Well done. This was in the spirit of the thread the Mods were looking for. A funny statement without taking a pot shot at Coach Gibbs..

A few classics from Gibbs 1.0:

This is a really good team. Nobody's overlooking them. They have a really good group of guys.
Translation: They suck and we should destroy them.

You always knew the confidence level of the team the greater he would puff up the opponent.

that's pretty similar to what Belichik said about the skins before they kicked our ass.

"Those guys are true Redskins!"
