The Temple of Belichick

dr. z on running up the score vis a vis skins:

"In 1991 I was covering Atlanta-Washington in the playoffs. I talked to the Falcons' defensive end, Tim Green, and he said, "Ask Glanville about Joe Gibbs throwing the out and up in the fourth quarter when they were ahead, 42-17. He's been using that as a motivational tool all week."

The Redskins' out and up went for 64 yards and a touchdown to Art Monk in that November meeting and moved the score to 49-17. It ended up 56-17. So when I talked to Falcons coach Jerry Glanville that evening in his hotel suite I asked him about it. His eyes narrowed."

it's funny, b/c i was thinking that this pats team reminded me of that skins team. very workmanlike, no mistakes, but capable of meting severe punishment to teams foolish enough to make mistakes in their presence. plus, that pats o-line reminds of the hogs a bit.

Bill Belichick, the NFL's own Colonel Kurtz.

Thank you all for helping me continue my Bilichick/Nixon obsession.

I actually had to go to a "motivational speaking engagement" with Don Shula today and he's totally dead serious in his jerkfacery about this. He actually cut away from his prepared speech to bitch a little bit, 30 or 45 seconds, about SPYGATE and the asterisk.

I used to like Shula, but after his comments during the whole Mike Shula firing and Nick Saban hiring earlier this year at UA and now this new round of whining, I've decided he's just a grumpy old fart no one should be listening to.

i used to love how he sat on the rules committee and the dolphins would always mysteriously lead the league for fewest penalties. nothing like shaping the game to your team instead of vice versa.

from now on don shula = grandpa simpson.

"it should "be noted that the Patriots were fined and a No. 1 draft choice was taken away during that year of accomplishment."

so i guess he's also going to put an asterisk next to every game that mercury morris played while blown out of his mind, right?

WOW SHULA IS A TRUE G.

that said, this reeks of some senile sit the fuck down type bullshit. what was he doing an interview w/ the ny daily news for anyway?

from now on don shula = grandpa simpson.

I've been searching for that old man pic someone recently posted with that Morbius Bob Hope quote.

god i don't know what you're talking about but i wish to christ i did.

Shula went to the same uni as I did in clevo. I still have no connection with the man. Never wrote me etc. Decent enough coach though- I didn't realize that he coached the Colts in Super Bowl V (?) or something agianst the Cowboys.

Ah, here we go:

I laugh out loud at least once a week to myself just thinking about this post. (Sorry, Morbs.)
