Or perhaps we're smart enough not to drive around in that much snow. :rolleyes:
... so you're saying you aren't emulating DL and getting stuck on a highway while private plow contractors drive past you laughing the entire time? :p

Um the 49ers, as I mentioned just a couple posts ago, are rather mediocre themselves. It's not like he had the 80's 49ers under his belt or anything.

He's been in charge for three years. At some point doesn't he have to take responsibility for them being mediocre?

So then what is your argument. You admit his team was mediocre, and was so mediocre they couldnt even win the NFLs worst division. Guess what that gets you...$&!%canned. It wasnt like this was his first season, he has had plenty of time to show improvement and they never have. Part of it is talent, and part of it is his coaching.

He would have been canned anywhere for the record he put up, win or go home.

hahahaha, that was the part that made me laugh my azz off. The declaration of an emergency based on weather terrorist reports. State of emergency...

Fast Eddie is ticked off!

I was looking forward to this. It would have been a real experience. This is what football is all about. We’re becoming a nation of wussies.

ok, I didn't start him so it doesnt really matter to me but how does Matt Ryan get credit for a fumble lost on the long snap that the center rolled backwards about 2 feet?
 
Re: NFL 2010: $25K Fine For Talking About Fines

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. You can only review it if you get a first down despite the fact this was well over a yard short? Bull ****.

**** you Michael Turner. **** you. Now I need 44 from Vick and Maclin.
 
Re: NFL 2010: $25K Fine For Talking About Fines

So my team choked this week pretty bad...I have a 6.15 point lead and my opponent has Michael Vick and David Akers...I guess I need to pray for Jarod Allen or Ray Edwards to rock Vick and knock him out of the game early...its my only chance.

Nope. Take your loss like a man. :p
 
Re: NFL 2010: $25K Fine For Talking About Fines

What a dumb rule that you can't review a spot unless it involves trying to overturn what was called a first down...

Absolutely he does. Unfortunately for Singletary is that his situation sort of reminded me of Mike Tice's situation. I think Singletary suffered from inept personnel management, which may or may not have been somewhat his fault. Did Singletary get to have a hand in free agent signings or draft picks?.

Tice had no ownership help from McCombs, and had to make do with some pretty lousy talent. Surprisingly, he actually had a winning team or two in there. In fact, I'm pretty sure he got canned after putting up a 9-7 record, when Childress came in and turned the team into a loser. Now I'm not saying Tice was a genius, but if he had been given some talent beyond simply Randy Moss, his coaching career could have been much different. Then again, he did allow some pretty appalling behavior to happen on the team. That may have been more than anything the reason Ziggy Wilf, the current owner, ended up firing him.

More than anything, I miss hearing Tice's post game press briefings. "I need a huuuuug!"

That's a good point. I disagree on Tice, although I think he will eventually make a good coach (he was too green). And 3 years in a rebuilding program is too short, IMO. He had one bad year (or rather, one year he didn't progress). Now, I have to admit that sports in general have too short a fuse, but this is silly, IMO.
