You funny, too, Blake.
You slight my suggestion of Green because he never took his team to the Superbowl, then you turn around and suggest a couple of coaches who never made it either. What\'s up with that? I like Green because he turned the Vikings into contenders that made the playoffs consistently. No, he didn\'t take them all the way, but that doesn\'t mean he can\'t. I\'m not making any claims that he is a \"QB\'s\" coach or anything like that. I don\'t care abaout that. I just like what he did with Minnesota, that\'s all. As far as the race card, I don\'t really remember much about that, but if I remember correctly, Green was fired after one year under new owner McCombs. So, if that\'s true, we can\'t say that if the old leadership had stayed and fired him that he\'d have made the same claims. Maybe he believed the new owner didn\'t give him a fair shot. IF he played the race card, it may show something about him. That is, that Green is human just like everone else and sometimes says things he later regrets. Who knows? But I know that if Benson brought Green here, he\'d give him a fair chance to succeed and that is all any coach can ask for regardles of the color of his skin. If he is not treated fairly, then he has every right to make accusations about such and speculate as to the reasons why he was treated so unfairly. Anyway, your desire to have only a superbowl winning head coach sure does limit the candiudate pool. I bet Seifert and Ditka are still available. All of this doesn\'t matter anyway because I\'d be extremely surprised to find out that Haslet was let go. We should be able to count on at least one more year of Haz. |
