It is one thing to root for a team and therefore to root against the people who are associated with any rivals of your team. It's a totally different thing to revel in the kind of anguish that has to fall upon a family who just went through what Andy Reid's family did. Root for Reid and his system to make some horrid blunders and lose 15 games next year; that's fine. But to wish for him and his family to implode is just plain wrong.

Look at this through the other end of the telescope. SUPPOSE Joe Gibbs' kid was arrested for some kind of drug abuse thing and a poster on an Eagles' fan board said that he hoped that Gibbs' other son got in a trafffic accident and was turned into a tetraplegic just so a "division rival" would be weakened. How sick would you think that mythical Eagles' fan might be? I'd think a person like that was destined for the Ninth Ring of Hell...

I don't know Andy Reid. From all of the stories I've read and heard about him, he is not an evil man. Root against him and his team; but don't root for horrid things to happen to his kids and his family because they happen to be related to the coach of another NFL team. That's waaay over the top!

Nobody's rooting for his family to implode. But I for one am not sorry it happened.

I don't think this will have much effect on the Eagles. But it sure won't have a good effect. And 9th ring of hell or not, I can't say I mind that.

Just being honest. I could give two shitake mushrooms about Andy Reid's personal life. All I care about is his team. Anything (short of someone dying or coming down with a life threatening or dehabilitating disease) negative that happens to his team is good in my opinion.
