Nobody cares about this game I guess.

MIN up 10-0. Bridgewater continues to look like a great pick.
 
Manning is getting shut down and Michaels/Chicken Neck are still talking about Odell Beckham.

Good lord. There is a game going on here.

Back in the day, Howard, Giff and Dandy Don wouldn't be harping on like this.
 
Giants trying not to move too far down in the draft.
 
Love the Eli pick! The Giants crack me up. Jennings is a decent back yet the Giants always take him out of the game. Makes no sense.

Living in Carolina, I love it. The Panthers and Newton do show boat a lot. Gonna be funny when they don't make it out of the first round.

I can understand that. I grew up in NC and I hated UNC and Duke and all those fans. The Panthers weren't there when I lived there though. It was Commander territory. I still think the Falcons showing off was stupid though because in the end it probably won't mean a thing.

I have to say I owe Zimmer an apology.

I thought he was a wimp, but he is a solid head coach.

Won me over when he basically challenged Fisher to a fight.

Albeit, I wish his voice were a little deeper.

It would aid in the effect.

Looking like squiggy from Laveen and Shirley hurts him as far as looking tough. But I always thought he was a good coach despite the GROZ movement that was en vogue here at one time.

The knock on Zimmer IIRC was that he didn't blitz much and played a very bend-don't-break style.

Yet somehow Marinelli does the same thing here and there is no GROM movement. Well, yet anyway.

Parcells loved him, and if you remember kept him despite the switch to a 3-4 and Zimmer's lack of experience with it.

He was put into a difficult situation. Parcells liked him, but he was hardly his first choice if things were different. And he had to learn the 3-4 and he did an okay job at it in retrospect.

When the Vikings hired him, I thought it was a little Campo-ish, but that was unfair to assume.

Zimmer's personality is honest and he will call a spade a spade. That is not something that was always publicized when he was in Dallas.
