As I said in another thread, Gibbs is one of those guys that would be successful in almost anything, whether it's a football coach, running a NASCAR team, CEO of a business, etc. He knows how to lead and motivate, how to surround himself with quality people he can trust, and he has an incredible work ethic.

Has anyone read his book?
Matty are you talking about "Racing to Win"? I bought the book, but haven't had a chance to read it yet.........But I did read his book "Fourth and One".....
very insightful, and it talked about Gibbs having to file bankruptcy because he gave an investor full power of attorney because he was totally immersed in the Redskins, sleeping at Redskin Park etc, but this investor lost Gibb's money. It also talked about his wife having a stroke. Even with all his fame and fortune he did go through some rough times in his life.
