If I were interviewing Gibbs, would I want to ruffle his feathers? Probably not.
Regardless, this is the quandary ES is stuck with. Anytime something like this happens, people are going to assume it's because of their ties with the team.

I am not worried about ruffling feathers honestly. The guy is a profesional football coach and I think his skin is thick enough to handle it appropriately. Plus he is always extolling the virtues of the "greatest fans in the league". I'd think he'd be at least receptive to hearing opinions and answering questions. Not that he'd parse any advice from such conversations but I think he'd at least humor us. He knew it was going to be an unpopular decision so I assume he'd be prepared to answer such questions. I don't know it just seems like by having the association they SHOULD be able to ask questions like that without worrying about repercussions. Whereas if thewarpath secured such an interview I can see why we'd want to softball the whole thing so as to keep him coming back. Not that a bragae of "you're an idiot! why did bench ramsey?" questions should be offered but the situation without a doubt deserves at least a reasoned question or two. Seems silly to ignore it.
