ESPN MacMahon: Wade Phillips shows weakness in brushing off Newman-Campo incident

[ShiningStar]

Rue...

Ruing sir. Big time Rue.

It's obvious Tim McMahon never played the game of organized football. Stuff like that happens all the time. And it worked since Newman played flawless football afterwards. Mission accomplished by the Poodle.

This bullcrap article makes me wonder if Tim McMahon ever played the game of organized journalism.

Because Newman put his hand on Campos Bosom.

He didn't have much of a choice being Campos was in his face. I liked it. I thought it would get praise to be honest lol. I thought it showed fire. It showed accountability. Can't really compare it to the TO situation.

Newman did blow the tackle and Campo was in his right to get in his face. Newman didn't like it and they had a small bump fest. It was nothing. It was literally nothing. Both were heated. It isn't like Newman took Campo out on the sidline w/ a Brainbuster or anything.

Typical Dallas media


Was Newman right in doing it? No

Was it a big deal? No

Think Wade will handle it? Yes and I think it will be done in house where no pathetic hack of a journalist can run and make something out of it that it isn't.

Does this make Wade weak? Of course not.

The reaction is funny. I wonder what the reaction in Denver is today after Knowshown and Marshall got into it yesterday? Are they making a big deal out of their two best and youngest players on offense getting into a scuffle on the sidelines?

It has been too quit at Valley Ranch they need some controversy to write about if not then they will have to come up with some real story that may take some real thought.

LOL Yea I understand but goodness. I guess they got tired of writing about the Roy tension.

IM glad Campo did it, I want some fire on that sideline. Doesnt have to be Phillips and he doesnt have to be firey to control a situation. you pay the OTHER coaches to do their jobs and Campo has to make sure Newman does his job, however Campo goes about it, get those guys to produce. And our DB's are producing. Hats off to Campo for that one. Doing what i was hoping he would do and what he does well, coordinate and keep that particular part of the team rolling well. If they get Scandrick up to speed and make something out of Ball, and Mike Hamlin, all the better. If he has to light those players up with a flame thrower in his hands, have at it.

Even when Landry was here you did not see him blow up on the sideline, however his assistant coaches like Dan Reeves and Mike Ditka would go ballistic especially Ditka

I'm thinking about printing it out and wiping my *** with it to be honest.

Unless you want to use it as a scoop for that stubborn ****.

Parcell's punched Todd Haley on the sidelines. Stuff happens. So what?

 

[Idgit]

I know.

I was like, wow. That is one fiery little poodle.?

You couldn't see it on tv, but live in the stadium it was obvious. Campo lifted his leg and peed on Newman and then Newman pushed him.

He was going for Bill's braciole. That's different.

Didn't Campo also punch him in the knee?

Exactly, respect for your position and team. Good call Dooms.

Position coaches are normally harder because they are with their groups all the time. They also build closer relationships. Best thing Newman could have done is drop it and move on and he pretty much did.

Talking about it at this point only give the appearance that there is something wrong.

This is what would get TO in trouble is not letting it go instead he would start talking to the media about it and what could have been water under the bridge ends up being the leading story on sports center.

I watched the telecast on FSN,the media was going after Wade about the Campo/Newman scuffle and they also tried to get him into a Roy Williams discussion.

I don't see anything wrong with the media asking a question about the team.But some of those guys need to be taken to the woodshed with some of the crap they ask.Ask a reasonable question get an answer,ask a question that has no reasonable answer and get your press pass revoked.

I agree, I think Newman was classy for not going to the media and saying stuff. IF he does have a gripe, let him talk it out with Campo. If he says "yes, i was wrong Campo got on me for doing wrong" it still sends a message, let the two talk it out behind doors.

Campo has been good even in his second tour here. Im glad hes here, i have more faith in our dbs lately. But if someone has to get firey, let it be the other coaches, I dont want my HC out there acting a fool and punching or putting down the players, its a bad sign to everyone.

I like that Wade is calm and shows respect and dignity on the sidelines and not acting like a kid and screaming and texting to his woman that the man isnt siding with him.

Just stand there and let your coaches do their thing. If you have beef, talk with them afterwards, if they arent doing their jobs (Bret Maxie) than fire them or put them on warning. Something that says this organization has class and dignity and does things the right way.

I agree. I have never expected Wade to act like someone else. Wade knows how to deal with players he has been doing it a long time.

As for Wade remaining here I think that depends on him getting this team over the hump if he can do that then I think he will have earned an extension of his contract.

I have never believed there is only one way for a coach to deal with players I have seen many different coaches do things their own ways Tom Landry was nothing like Jimmy Johnson yet both had their share of success.
