The mettle of a good coach is truly measured when...

Find ONE TO bash thread I have ever started.

You might be able to find ONE, but it'll sure be only one.

Yes, I loathe the guy. But I do try to temper my hatred.

Believe me, you've seen just the tip of the iceberg of my dislike, but in the interests of a family board, I don't usually say what I'd like to.

And of course, when a fellow poster complained a week or so back about my use of the words "TO Jock Sniffers", I promised to refrain from using the incendiary term if the label 'hater' ceased to be constantly thrown about.

Guess who held her part of the bargain, but saw zero in return?

Well, it's only cyber space, but one expects some integrity.

But that's okay..I thought you had a sense of humour about ALL of this.

As I do.

But I was wrong.

We can just leave each other be.

I can manage to not respond to your posts in the future.

I'm only seeing half of this conversation. It looks like the best half. Ignore button, almost better than sex.

Ok. So you aren't talking about me. That I know. I guess you were just speaking for the sake of speaking with hopes that the person would fire back. Just checking.

I'm done defending myself on this forum.

It's no holds barred for this gal from here in out.

It's LTN on the OFFENSE, so watch out.

Sounds like a plan.

You're making me want to snuggle up into one of these and close my eyes.

Screw it, I just can't stay mad at you. : :laugh2:

...that coach is willing to step outside of his box for the benefit of the team as a whole.

Prime example: Marty Schottenheimer

What you see in San Diego nowadays is definitely not Martyball. This guy has adapted his offense to the the skill of the player instead of making the player fit his offense perfectly. I applaud him for being dynamic enough to do such a thing.

Another coach that comes to mind off the top of my head is Bill Bellichek. The guy can beat you so many ways. You take the run away his offense morphs into a passing dynamo. Take the pass away and he beats you with Dillon and Maroney. The guy's realm of creativity is endless and his players rally around that.

My point is simply this... If this team is to win and continue to grow Parcells is going to have to let up off of the reigns just a tad. He is going to have to think outside if the box a little. I'm not sure at his age he is prepared to or even cares to do so.

Just another random thought...

i knew all along there was a brain in there somewhere
