We probably should've known this was coming when he called us by the wrong colors in his introductory press conference

Exactly. Then he said he was intimidated by the Lombardi's at the podium. or something to that effect. In over his head from day 1.

but GD we know you have no ego to get in the way, so all would be good on that front ;)

What'd you say about my ego?!!! Grrrrr... :)

I feel bad for him too, he's definitely in over his head. Looking back I think he took on too much, too soon. He went from QB coach in Seattle to head coach/offensive coordinator/QB coach with the Skins. That's a heck of a leap. Couple that with a front office without a solid plan in place and it spells disaster. He was set up for failure from day 1. He would have been better off as OC only with an experienced HC above him to work with.

This is the real shame. If only Zorn had an opportunity with a different team -- a different owner -- then he might not have been ruined. Most people in the NFL know we're a team in disarray, but few truly understand the intricacies of our dysfunction. People think they actually have a chance to succeed here. They come with visions of sugar plums, and leave with a cynicism greater than they ever thought possible. This is where people come to have their spirit broken -- coaches, players and fans alike.
