Touche. Note to all: no discussions of anything unless the Skins hold a presser. That should pretty much shut down the site for a week or so. Sounds fun.

Don't take it personal, unless it applies, but as has been said ad nauseam on this board: No need for 15 threads discussing basically the same thing. No reason this couldn't have been posted in one of the other coaching discussion threads. I would have loved to simply "skip it" and not read through something that I know is borderline pointless, but the sheer volume of horrible threads makes the site hard to navigate.

Hey man, you're right. I thought it was an interesting twist regarding GW perhaps not being in the running at all but it could have been put elsewhere. peace

Agreed. Though in redwagon's defense, I don't think this is one of those threads.

Now the petition on the other hand...

Agreed, this thread is nowhere near as bad as others (petition, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?) but I would love to see a Coaching Thread Super Ultra Mega Merge.

I can't tell if it is just JLC's reporting (I don't think so) but I actually think his last blog (reported here by RW) is pretty disheartening. I've tried to keep an open mind about the thing, and wasn't ready to jump off the Key Bridge (I guess Ravenel Bridge is closer for me) if they hired Fassel. That being said, the way Snyder has seemed to alienate Gregg Williams and the rest of the existing staff is really disappointing. For now at least, it also looks like the coordinators they wanted won't be coming in either and it just seems to be getting pretty ugly. If the Fassel/Ryan/Zorn thing could have happened quickly and without all the mess it certainly would have been better than the current situation. It just seems like the process here has really alienated a lot of people (and I'm not even talking about the fans) and been handled pretty poorly.

After the way they treated Williams (and Marty before) I just have a hard time understanding why any coach would want to come deal with the Snyder/Cerrato tandem. I guess if your other option is calling games for Westwood One it is pretty attractive, but besides that ... (and I don't mean to dump on Fassel either, just saying that you have to know that if your name isn't Joe Gibbs you are never going to really run the show).
