I'm going to lock this now and then we can open it up when the presser starts to discuss it

Thanks

Presser starts (tentatively) in 30 minutes

Let's discuss it here

Thanks SS. There's a Caps game on Comcast, I'm not sure if they are going to break into the presser or not? But it will be live on Redskin.com

i'm watching the caps right now and i heard the announcers say that they WILL break into the skins presser.

Looks like NFL Network might also show the presser.

Snyder is giving a speech. Introduce the new guy and then go hide.

KG is out, Parker is out for S.A. Celtics up by 9 with about 8:30 in the 4th.

The Celts are 9-6 in their past 15 games. Without KG they are just a little better than average. That hurts for me to say since I am a Celtics fan, but we obviously need KG if we are going to go anywhere come playoff time.

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
Did he just reference the Skins losing to the Raiders in the SB? Odd. ;)

RobH4413 02-10-2008 03:14 PM

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
He seems a bit nervous... his speech is choppy.

I like the guy so far... He's saying all the right things. Talking about being a family man... kind of reminds me of JG himself.

RobH4413 02-10-2008 03:15 PM

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
oooo... just said the maroon and black and yellow...

awkward.

I'm with you, I'm a huge Celtics fan too. My biggest fear was they would go in the tank if KG went down. But I am pleasantly surprised they're hanging in there without him.

Is this presser pretty boring so far or is it just me?

SmootSmack 02-10-2008 03:15 PM

Ummm. Did he just say maroon, black, and yellow were our colors?

Seems very nervous

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
He seems like a good guy, and probably someone who doesn't seek the kind of spotlight he's under right now. He just seems nervous (for good reason!).

The team colors are burgundy and gold!

I think he realized he was wrong which is why his voice started trailing off

Well at least you wait is over ,best of luck with the New Coaching staff .

I hope he is nervous. He just called our colors Maroon, black and yellow! Someone better tell him about the Burgundy and Gold!!!!

Chris Cooley seems like hes still on the fence with the Zorn hiring.

[quote=SmootSmack;420298]I think he realized he was wrong which is why his voice started trailing off[/quote]
Yeah... I can't imagine going from hardly being in the spotlight at all as a QB coach, to having to give a press conference with Joe Gibbs, Snyder, and the entire nation watching. Your going to just have to roll with it and get through it.

HGale 02-10-2008 03:19 PM

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
If I had a dollar for every Zorn "uhhh" during that presser, I could buy the team from Danny.

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
yeah...the Johnny Unitas hear cut has to be a good sign

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
Also awkward was the mentioning of starting 10 on defense to honor Sean Taylor right after he thanked Gibbs for being at the press conference. All in all, however, he's saying the right stuff. No fluff, no "we're going to beat Dallas blah blah blah blah."

Dirtbag59 02-10-2008 03:21 PM

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
Alright now we get to see the real Jim Zorn. Questions are usually easier during situations like this where you can just be yourself.

I dunno, I'm watching the qualifying for daytona 500. They are usually boring, so I have no interest in watching it.

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
Keeping the existing run terminology and scheme in place sounds like a good start. I think we're going to be just fine, there will be a bit of a learning curve but Zorn's a smart guy.

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
I'm impressed that the BS meter for Zorn's comments is basically zero. I'm sure he thought our colors were maroon, yellow, and black because those were the colors of the apparel his family bought. I'd rather have a guy flub the tradition stuff than nail it and sound insincere. Just look at Bobby Petrino's pathetic "Woo Pig Sooie" Arkansas press conference. Zorn can think our colors are pink and lavender for all I care.

Also, the "ALRIGHT, DAN?" part was a great moment.

Dirtbag59 02-10-2008 03:28 PM

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
Yeah, Jim seems a lot more comfortable with answering questions then making statements. Right now I feel like hes a lot more natural.

RobH4413 02-10-2008 03:32 PM

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
He'll learn that he doesn't have to answer any of the media's questions. He's elaborating too much.

This is a press conference... just give vanilla answers.

Poor guy is nervous as hell.

EDIT: I love that he answers them... just think that he'll be more likely to dig himself a hole if he elaborates too much.

I think cause he QB'd the Seahawks who lost to the Raiders in the AFC championship that year. I lost $ 100 on that game :(
