[quote=GusFrerotte;374902]Folks Coach Gibbs is a great guy and was a great coach during his first tenure here, but things were a lot more conducive to a title run back in 1981-1992 than now. Consider:

1. No FA in the Gibbs I era
2. No thuggish/greedy prime dona environment in the NFL at the time that came
as part of the ridiculous salaries these guys get paid.
3. Expansion has split the once huge Skins TV/revenue market between 3
teams(Ravens, Skins, Panthers)

Thing is we do not have the front office like we used to and also with the salary cap having a rich guy like Snyder as owner doesn't mean squat. Snyder also interferes,unlike MR Cook Sr that let Bobby Beathred do the football stuff. The old adage is th at lightning doesn't strike twice and I think that will be the case with Gibbs II. I would like to be wrong about this, but I doubt I will be when all is said and done. The NFL is also all about the above mentioned markets. When Gibbs was here for the first go round, Skins country consisted of E Pa, MD, VA,W Va, and both Carolinas. A huge market that generated a ton of $$$$$$$$$ for the NFL, so it was natural for the Skins to be able to prosper also. It made sense to the NFL to let the Skins succeed. Now I don't think they care since the market is so small.[/quote]

WTF????? are you fuckin serious?!!! that is the stupidist thing Ive heard since the last time I came to the site and read another post almost as stupid as this. I am in complete agreement with the mods on their stand against stupid, worthless, & repeated topics. Ive come to the conclusion that some of you need to do one of the following:

a) quit drinking
b) drink more
c)quit doing drugs
d) do more drugs
e) get laid
f) yoga.........
