Re: Thanks to coach Zorn

Not only Zorn but all the other people on his staff-coaches and administrative assistants alike-who are probably gone as well. Especially those with kids. This kind of stuff is an inevitably in pro sports and it's something you have to be prepared for, still it never feels good to be let go or to see good people let go.

For all the staff and families that are going through this upheaval. Thanks and Good luck in the future. But I am with mredskins, Zorn is a good guy who just got a couple mil for living his dream job and failing. I don't wish him ill, but it's a little much to say thanks to him at this point.

I was thinking that same thing Smack. There are more people feeling the pain from this than Zorn himself. It amazes me how some people can be so dismissive of "the man" because he didn't pan out to be a good "football coach". He's a man first, and he gave nothing but respect while he was here and he deserves nothing less going out.

Someone may find some value in the two years experience he gained here and find a way to put it to good use. I always say, "One man's trash is another man's treasure". Good luck Zorn and all your coaches who have to endure what I'm sure you knew was inevitable for a while. Be like the cat Jim, no matter how they twist and turn you, land on your feet.

I agree, Zorn may not be our choice as head coach but he treated it with class and held his head high all season amidst all the rumors and turmoil. With all the questions about his job week after week i think i would have went off on someone.
