I don't want to condemn Andy Reid. He's a damn fine football coach, but I don't know a thing about him as a parent. None of us here know the ins and outs of his realtionship with his sons. They f-ed up big time, but I don't think that should immediately be a condemnation of his abilities as a father. The Reid sons are grown men- 23 and 24 years old. We're not talking about 16 year olds here.

As far as Andy Reid stepping down- No. Why now? His sons are both going to jail for possibly 23 months. What's he gonna do, quit the Eagles and sit on his couch and wish his sons weren't in the clink? If he needed to take time off to deal with family issues, that time has come and gone.
