Vermeil is a classy guy

:cry2: You're so mean.

Me too.....

He wasn't so classy when he was the Eagles coach and had that loud mouth Jaws at QB. I couldn't stand either one of them.

This was my first thought also. People would not think he was so classy back then. I can't remember the words, but he was basically was an arse and his comments classless after they beat the cowboys in the NFC Championship game, in what, 80 or 81

Classy huh? "They Dicked Us On That Flea Flicker."

That wasn't a complaint though; it was just an observation. What's wrong with that?

Vermeil had no other choice other than to say what he did.

It was an obvious call.

The refs would have been completely negligent in their duty to let that play go by without a call.

Why is it that people on this forum have so much trouble giving credit to other teams? Vermeil could have totally whined and made a big deal out of it or provide the more subtle yet sarcastic "no comment" response implying the refts made a bad call which is what most coaches would say even if they knew the call was legitimate.

The same thing happend with the Eagles and TO. Andy Reid did the right thing and instead of some you giving him credit, you said he had no choice. Now there are rumors that Jerry Jones is interested in TO. Trust me, Reid had a choice. A lot of teams are interested in TO and you will see that when all of this drama dies down.

Give credit when it is due.

Vermeil may have mellowed and be a better sport now but believe me he was a major JERK back when he coached the Eagles. He's not somebody I care about one way or the other now because he's not in our division and I don't read what he says or even care what he says but when he was in our division and going against the Cowboys he spewed alot of Cowboy hate and venom. Kind of the precursor to Buddy Ryan.
