Venturi to stay

shadowdrinker · 01-16-2005, 03:32 PM

I cannot sit here and think of one single reason or excuse, explanation, or even begin to understand why both Haslett and Venturi are BOTH coming back...

This is a suprise..I was convinced that at the very least, Venturi would have to be gone...HEY BENSON, WE HAD THE WORST DEFENSE THIS TEAM HAS EVER HAD, AND CLOSE TO BEING THE WORST IN NFL HISTORY...excluding the final 4 games...we were punked each and every week..by teams like Arizona? Are you kidding me?

Total lack of responsibility..and a lack effort, the only thing I can personally try to come up with is...This must be some scheme for Benson to save money... and try to get the team to have a top 3 pick when time to sell comes round...

Thank you Mr. Benson ...For yet another year of Mediocrity..if we can even play that good...

Call your team \'\'High Schoolers\'\'..then make a boneheaded move like that?... You, in my opinion, have just thrown in the towel on this team, your team....you bastard

T-R,

I\'m going to hope you\'re right.

I still think this is some sort of insanity, but maybe there are reasons we currently have no access to - such as the one you suggest.

Tell me again why winning those last 4 games was so great?

OK I will.
If Minnesota had won like they were supposed to we\'d have made the playoffs. And from what I\'ve seen so far there was a good chance we\'d have advanced, maybe more than one round.
Winning the last 4 games didn\'t save Venturi\'s job, stupidity by a clueless owner and a gutless front office are the reasons Venturi is back.

If finishing dead fricking last in defense isn\'t enough to get Venturi fired, do you think finishing 4-12 would have? I have no reason to believe it would.

..in all honesty, I was playing devil\'s advocate... I would get rid of everyone including the waterboys...

... but, if people out there are willing to rationalize keeping Haslett because of the last 4 games of the season, then using the same rationale, they would also have to want to keep Venturi, Loomis, et al...

... I would say if the Saints had won early games againts bad teams, like against the Cardinals and Tampa, they would\'ve been in the playoffs.. putting the Saints playoff chances on the Vikings ..well...

..and as long as we are playing with the if\'s, what if Atlanta needed to win the second game against the Saints, instead of having both playoff berth and seeding secure, and playing not to get hurt?
